Mulling over LEE LOFASO to STEVE ASHER 13 Dec 2004

G'day Lee...

>>> Continued from previous message

SA>In any event, Falwell has restarted a "21st century resurrection of 
SA>the Moral Majority" called "The Moral Majority
Coalition" to promote 
SA>faith and moral values. My interest will be in what "faith" and 
SA>"moral values" such a coalition might promote, given that the 
SA>original MM included Catholics, Mormons, Evangelicals, Jews etc ( a 
SA>real "Babylon" of belief).

A slight correction there: the original MM was, according to the interview
with Falwell published in Penthouse - March 1981 - a coalition of "religious
people" ... of all sorts: "Mormons, Catholics, Jews, fundamentalists, you
name it." [page 156]

 LL> Falwell's views are far different than the commander of Babylon 5. 
 LL> :) 

Hmmm.. I'd forgotten about Babylon 5 - I can't even remember the plot :)

SA>I assume he / it will be amenable to introduction & enforcement of the
SA>so-called "Noachide Laws", even if it ultimately leads to
his beheading.

 LL> A few years ago, nobody thought it possible that a small group of
 LL> radical Republicans could gain power in America.  And yet, that is
 LL> what we have today.  Some may scoff at the prospect of "Noachide
 LL> Laws" being the basis of law in America or any other place.  But
 LL> politics is a funny game.  Things change.  Very fast.

The warnings were there. I was laughed at in the "Holysmoke" echo for
stating that there were those seeking to establish an old-testament
style theocracy in the USA. Now, with the move to recognise noachide
laws as the bedrock of society & to return to them, it is coming to
pass, & is by no means limited to reconstructionists & dominionists.

Cheers, Steve..
