In the 1980s, religion and politics, two forces that affect all our lives, locked arms in a concerted effort to seize power in government and overturn America's most basic constitutional guarantee: the separation of church and state. Holy Terror was the first book to expose the coalition of fundamentalist Christians, right-wing ideologues and tech-savvy political strategists who use faith, fear and intimidation in their war on America’s freedoms and their drive to impose their beliefs on people and cultures worldwide. In this classic edition of their acclaimed 1982 book, with a new preface by the authors, Conway and Siegelman reveal how the preachers and political operatives of the fundamentalist right use potent new communication technologies to raise vast sums of money, mobilize millions, elect zealous fundamentalists to public office, and advance far-right social and political goals. To research this new threat they term "holy terror," the authors criss-crossed the country and interviewed people on all sides of the issues: from targeted senators and congressmen to disillusioned Christians appalled by the new political thrusts of their faith. More timely today than four decades ago, Conway and Siegelman’s astute and provocative findings are sure to arouse and enlighten readers of every persuasion 261.70385176708 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 261.7 Con h E07002660 Non Fiction 261.7 Con h Holy_terror.jpg 64244 2014-12-17 10:19:06 2025-11-07 17:10:19 machine generated
