Thank you so much for talking about this topic again (although it has been a couple of years since it was last done). Dominionism is a very big problem that people have just started to wake up to. I can’t wait until I can watch the show. I “hope that you guys touch on the “Parallel Economy” aspect of Dominionism. A “Parallel Economy” has been created by Dominionist. Doctors, lawyers, educators, businesses, etc. that cater to the interest of Dominionist families. This is causing a new generation of children that have literally been raised from the womb in isolation of any views contradictory of what the family/community believes. That should be scary for everyone.———-BTW, dogemperer from dailykos (and other websites) has an great blog about this subject (and has written extensively on Parallel Economy) here.

“The long-term goal of Christians in politics should be to gain exclusive control over the franchise. Those who refuse to submit publicly to the eternal sanctions of God by submitting to His Church’s public marks of the covenant – baptism and holy communion – must be denied citizenship, just as they were in ancient Israel.”- Gary North

Thanks for recommending “You Must Be Joking, Mr. Feynman” on the show. I found it to be a life-changing book, which I know seems odd. Aside from the skepticism and the excellent article on cargo-cult education, it somehow managed to instill in me an attitude that yes, I can understand anything if I take the time and put my mind to it.

OBTW, Russell, you mentioned on the show that you haven’t been paying attention to the Iron Chariots wiki lately.For what it’s worth, the “Recent Changes” page has feeds associated with it: RSS 2.0 and Atom.
