LINK Powerful Pentecostal Movement Aims to Conquer “Seven Mountains” of American Life | Val Wilde | Friendly Atheist | Patheos
The Seven Mountain Mandate has since become what journalist Elle Hardy calls “the theocratic wave of populism” and “a new and determined Moral Majority for the 21st century” — one that seeks a completely transformed culture, not just in laws and politics, but in every realm of life: the titular Seven Mountains of Religion, Family, Education, Entertainment, Media, Government, and Business.
The theory goes like this: If enough people inject enough Christianity into all of these seven aspects of life, Christians can transform the culture in ways that will both reshape society and prepare it for the End Times. It’s an idea that sanctifies the pursuit of power and justifies just about anything done in the name of Jesus.

Why are those mental defectives wanting to inject Christianity rather than, say, Islam, Hinduism, Shinto or Pastafarianism?

The wonderful "end times" all brought in by the number powers of 7. They also have a number 3 which has great powers. God is two (clap) two (clap) two mints in one. Doublemint gum there. We could make it a triplemint or put the magical powers of 7 to work on it. Might work better or allow you to be alive when it happens.

If they’re so anxious for the End Times, and so sure they are going to be the saved ones, why are they so damn worried about the rest of us that don’t believe their silly ideas. We don’t want to hang with them, even if we are wrong! So let them live according to their beliefs and let the rest of us enjoy our heathen ways!

As long as the scientifically verifiable facts are taught in schools and in the media, people can realize on their own that Christianity is not just wrong, but hopelessly silly and viciously cruel. Young people get it and that's why Nones are growing rapidly. Suck it up, Pentecostal and other Christian psychopaths.

then you have already lost, in a sense
@KKGator well...as the article also touches on, you are now in an "us v them" scenario, and this is most likely going to change you, not them; iow you are now also involved in "spiritual warfare" even if you might call it something else, as opposed to the battle is already won type thinking
so, i don't mean to dissuade you ok, but imo...at least learn from the outcome of your efforts 
"everybody wants to rule the world"
@bbyrd009 I have no interest in ruling the world. Nor do I have any interest in being ruled by delusional religutards.
If it's an "us vs. them" proposition, it's because they're making it that way.
I will resist, just as I always have.
The only way I see myself "losing" the fight is if I acquiesce and go along with their bullshit.
That I will not do.
You are free to see the situation however you wish. As do I.
@KKGator ..
