Christian Youth Being Indoctrinated to Kill Infidels

A couple of weeks ago I asked the question Should We Fear the Teen Mania Battle Cry? Today I came across an article that answers that question for me: Yes, we should.

Pastor Rick Warren, author of "The Purpose Driven Life," with the full support of Tim LaHaye, author of the "Left Behind" series, has created a new video game which he intends to release by October – just in time for Christmas. The video game is an extremely violent game in which born again Christians prowl the streets of New York City giving people an opportunity to convert or be killed. Then, as they blow the infidels away, they say, "Praise the Lord." If you wish, however, you can be part of the army of the Antichrist and release demons to devour Christians when you find them.

This video game, in my opinion, validates the fears of people who have been saying that Teen Mania's Battle Cry language may, indeed, be more than simply a call to be dedicated to Christ. It may be a part of a planned fundamentalist indoctrination of children intended to pursue a violent takeover of our country.

Mr. Warren … describes himself as a "stealth evangelist" and describes his training programs as "a stealth movement, that's flying beneath the radar, that's changing literally hundreds, even thousands of churches around the world."

Warren is not limting his goals to changing the U.S. only. He has decided to turn other nations into "purpose-driven" nations based on his dominion theology as well. He's chosen a real plumb to start with:

Celebrants included Paul Kagame, the president of Rwanda, a tiny east African country that lost hundreds of thousands of people when it suffered genocide in 1994. Catholic and Protestant clergy have been convicted in connection with that genocide. Yet Mr. Kagame announced that he would allow Mr. Warren to turn his country into the first purpose driven nation.

Perhaps he has chosen Rwanda because he already knows the people there are so hateful of each other after decades of war atrocities that many are willing to accept any reason offered as an excuse to resume killing each other. But what about people here at home?

On both sides of the political aisle lately I am increasingly hearing off-handed comments about a French Revolution or a second civil war. People seem to feel they have no alternative left to just killing those who are destroying the country. For some it's the damned liberals and for others it's the damned neocons, but across the board people feel something is desperately wrong and we are running out of options. Meanwhile the damned radical Christian fundamentalists are continuing to build their militaristic movement right under our damned noses. And I'm damned uncomfortable with it.
