She first came across them in 1980 when several fledgling conservative Christian organizations held a training session on the art of influencing government. They tried to avoid coverage of this event and thus aroused her suspicions. Fifteen years later the group had grown into " a mighty army," with Pat Robertson at the helm. In this film, she traces the phenomenal growth and influence of the Christian Coalition, not only on American politics and diplomacy, but also on American culture. It shows Bob Billings, director of the Moral Majority, influencing his New Hampshire parishioners to vote for Ronald Reagan. It follows Pat Robertson's campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. It shows how the beliefs of the Relgious Right, particularly their vision of the apocalypse, shape their political agenda. Clips of Jerry Falwell, Jimmy Swaggart and other tv evangelists show how the electronic pulpit reaches a mass audience. The report is rounded out by interviews with Skipp Porteous, an expert on First Amendment issues; Jim Wallis, who first exposed the fundamentalists political ambitions. Without resorting to sensationalism, Onward Christian Soldiers presents a convincing picture of how the Religious Right threatens democracy in America. 001356126 521__ $$aFor High School; College; Adult audiences. 001356126 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001356126 586__ $$aBronze Plaque, Columbus International Film Festival, 1997 001356126 586__ $$aWindy City Documentary Festival, 1997 001356126 650_0 $$aEvangelicalism$$xPolitical aspects$$zUnited States. 001356126 650_0 $$aEvangelists$$zUnited States. 001356126 650_0 $$aReligion and politics$$zUnited States. 001356126 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001356126 7001_ $$aVujist, Freke. 001356126 7102_ $$aGreen Room Productions. 001356126 7761_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)747798439 001356126 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1650461 001356126 901__ $$aASP1650461/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25109$$tbiblio 001356126 905__ $$uadmin 001356126 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1356126$$pGLOBAL_SET 001356126 944__ $$a1785091 001356126 945__ $$aThe Whole World$$cChina 001356126 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001356126 980__ $$aBIB 001356126 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001356126 983__ $$aOnline
