There are more attending but you can see that this turned out to be quite long as it is. The reason why I spent the last few hours pulling this together to put in a post is because it is crucial that we keep seeing these same leaders of political Christianity when they crop up at these events across the country. The more I bring it up, the more familiar these faces and names will become and the more confident you will get in appreciation just how organized they are.

Few pay attention to these gatherings because they seem innocuous and that is precisely why I took this time to list the ones I did. These people either have direct influence in our political landscape, are members of legislative bodies or both. This is the seed of theocracy and they have unquestionably infested the Republican Party and redefined ”conservative” politics in the United States.

I do hope you will take the time to at least skim through each one that I included here, and go to the site where you can see a complete list to dig deeper.

It’s the March of the Theocrats and they are getting louder. Don’t be fooled by their 2012 rhetoric now – they are absolutely organizing for 2016 – and so are we.
