The Gathering: The Religious Right’s Cash Cow

www.twocare.org/the-gathering-the-religious-rights-cash-cow/
"Like its familial evangelical parent The Family, The Gathering takes the coercive moral authoritarianism inherent to anti-LGBT laws being passed (aided and encouraged by The Gathering-funded groups) from Uganda to Russia, and fuses it to the radical economic libertarianism of the Koch brothers – which would privatize much of the public sphere. Key to bringing about such a theocratic libertarian society is the indoctrination of youth. Featured speakers at The Gathering have, in public speeches and books, argued that children should be indoctrinated like the Hitler Youth, the Taliban, and Chairman Mao’s Red Guards, and they have argued that participants in their heavily partisan, politicized strain of Christianity should be as dedicated as were members of those violent movements."
