I think that the "christianists" and the "islamists" would, each, have a hauntingly similar view of the world as they would like it--albeit through a different focus. Repression, and the anti-democratic theocracy being prime factors of their "world view".

Don't know who coined it but picked it up from the cosmos, I thought.. Perfectly descriptive and people seem to 'get it' without much trouble. Bill Moyers did a PBS interview years ago that outlined the theocracy planned, quite seriously, by folks like Pat Robertson et al. Do be concerned over there in America.

The oppressive, anti-democratic reactionary theocracy these people are pushing has nothing to do with Christianity, but calling them "Christians" makes it hard to attack them because then you're seen as attacking Christians. People need to wake up to their agenda; it's real, and it's dangerous, and it's insidious because it flies under the radar.
