It may be about some very cynical, ruthless and wealthy people fostering and using a particular type of "Christianity" as one of many tools to manipulate government and social policy, but it's not simply about trying to push the world closer to Armageddon.

That the extreme right has always been about consolidating wealth and power into a few private hands (and religious institutions, of course) should be obvious to anyone. Simply look at their history and their policies. That a perfect way to do that on a grand scale would be to dismantle as much of the power and influence of the federal government as possible while impoverishing the masses of people (so the rest of us will have to depend on the private wealth of our robber-baron slave masters and religious institutions to survive) should be just as obvious.

What may not so obvious is how it all fits together as they have become so skilled at sounding as if they are talking about one thing when they are actually talking about another.

Now it just may be that these folks never intended for things to go quite this far, but given various statements over the years, I think at least some of them did.

William Greider gave a pretty good summary of various ideological points on the right and their implications back in 2003. You may or may not agree with all of his conclusions, but it is certainly food for thought and a place to start: http://www.thenation.com/doc/20030512/greider

Beyond that, you'd have to go back to transcripts of some of the actual speeches, and video and articles -- especially of the neocons, but also of some of those on the religious right -- to get a much better perspective, and those seem to be increasingly difficult to locate, at least on the web. I can't know why, but I am suspicious that it might be because certain powerful persons have begun to realize just how incriminating they are.
