Politics

Taking the reader on a journey through a country in the grips of a fevered religious radicalism, in "Kingdom Coming", Michelle Goldberg demonstrates how the growing influence of dominionism - the doctrine that Christians have the right to rule non-believers - is threatening the foundations of democracy. "Kingdom Coming" offers the powerful testimony of "regular" Americans to illustrate the subversive effect of a conservative stranglehold, and it urges Americans to turn their attention to the mechanisms of an insidious fundamentalism opposed to science, pluralism and reason. It contains a new epilogue. First published 2006; this edition 2007.
