dominionist movement

He also warns that, if the dominionists have their way, “Women will be removed from the workforce to stay at home, and all those deemed insufficiently Christian will be denied citizenship. . . . The only legitimate voices in this state will be Christian. All others will be silenced.”

What "movement" is this guy talking about?? I've read about the "Christian Reconstructionists" that hold these views, but I believe their international headquarters consist of a trailer out in the California desert. There is a war on freedom in America, waged both by the "secular" left and the "religious" right, but if it were a movie, the "dominionists" wouldn't even be extras.

'There is a war on freedom in America, waged both by the "secular" left and the "religious" right, but if it were a movie, the "dominionists" wouldn't even be extras.'

I am not trying to start a debate here, but I am labeled by the left as part of the religious right. If you are referring to some attempts at 'decency laws' or restricting porn from getting to kids, then I guess I am trying to take away freedom. But I believe freedom requires some common sense and morality from the populace. John Adams, our second President (a right winger) said 'ours is a system that requires a religious and moral people'. The reason why the system is failing in my opinion is that we are no longer a moral or religious people.

That being said, I understand that people of my belief cannot force our beliefs on anybody, but we can try to persuade. I would be interested to hear from you on how people like me are trying to strip liberty away other than guarding kids from smut...
