Fascist movements require "enemies" to focus the fear and anger of their followers on. For the politicized Christianity of the Religious Right, minorities like pagans and the LGBT community work very well. What follows are a few examples of this tactic by spokespersons of the Religious Right from Oct. 3-4th.

Back in those days, the Religious Right regarded Jews as Christ-killers (this was before they decided that they loved Israel) who controlled Hollywood, the media, the UN and the world banking system. In fact, they went on and on about the International Jewish Banker's Conspiracy so much that I figured they must know something I didn't and I sent several RR groups letters asking if they knew its address so I could send in an application for a job as a teller.
Sadly, I never got an answer from any of them.
