Selected Article Excerpts:

  • Most problems are caused by radicals who perceive Christianity from a Dominionist standpoint. Plainly spoken, they think that the New Testament demands conversion of those around them — even when secular or conflicting religious authority disagrees. The mission field is every field, including where battles are fought. For Dominionists, the chain of command links up to God, not generals.
  • Leading the crusade against all of this, and much more, is the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. Over the last several years, it has become one of America’s most controversial and well known legal action groups. The MRFF’s leader is Michael L. Weinstein, a former Air Force captain who served as Judge Advocate General for several years. He also worked in the Reagan Administration during Iran-Contra.
  • It is not just keyboard warriors who dog the MRFF, however. Rich organizations — in terms of both finances and membership — have made the Foundation a primary target.
  • At any rate, the MRFF has accomplished something which cannot be measured in dollars and cents. This is making Americans aware of bigotry and, speaking comprehensively, intolerance where such things can cause problems on an unimaginable scale.
