HR!Day307 - Confronting Christofascism: Healing the Evangelical Wound
- --- Humanity Rising Day 307 - Monday September 6, 2021 (GoTo Bottom)
Will democracy in America prevail or will it be usurped by a confluence of fascism and evangelical Christianity?
Carolyn Baker’s latest book Confronting Christofascism: Healing the Evangelical Wound traces the history of the unholy alliance between Fascism and Christian evangelicalism and invites those recovering from the influence of fundamentalist religions to excise the toxic influences of religious authoritarianism from politics and personal life. People from all backgrounds will be enlightened and inspired by Baker’s clear and incisive snapshot of this defining moment in our history. Confronting Cristofascism is a practical guide to assessing the influence of religious trauma in our personal and public histories and committing to recover from it in order to become more whole individuals and pro-active citizens. It is required reading for every awake American, and also citizens of the world where fundamentalism and authoritarianism conspire against freedom.
