08/19/2009 in Atheism And Religion, Book Reviews, Politics | No comments

Jeff Sharlet has the balls to unearth the dirty secrets of a Christian Mafia in his book "The FamilyThe Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power." This wealthy group was established during the great depression with the idology that power and wealth were bestowed by the christian god and should be things to be sought after. The Family openly admires Hitler, Stalin and Mau as men who understood how to attain and wield the type of power they seek to attain. The Family acts as a lobby group (unregistered) and claims non profit status as a religious organization. They also house prominent members of government in a sort of exclusive resort house call the "C Street House" where the officials are waited on hand and foot and served meals by college girls of the local Catholic College. Some of these men who are part of The Family who have recently been in the news for extramarital affairs have been Senator John Ensign and South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford, The Family regularily pays for countless statesmen and government officials to travel overseas to befriend third-world dictators and oppressive regimes. It is the philosophy of The Family that these dictators have god given power and deserve to be included in the christian mafia in an attempt to unite powerful, rich men all over the world with the goal of influencing public policy on a global scale.

The Family regularly pays for a select group of statesmen and government officials to travel overseas to befriend third-world dictators and oppressive regimes.  It is the philosophy of The Family that these dictators have god given power and deserve to be included in the christian mafia in an attempt to unite powerful, rich men all over the world with the goal of influencing public policy on a global scale.

Sharlet’s book exposes this wicked group in an in-depth manner that draws ties to a large number of elected government officials including President Ford, George W. Bush and Ronald Regan.

Sharlet recently interviewed on Jon Stewart’s Daily show (clip below).  Even better is his interview on NPR.
