Dominionism is still in the news. Jack Cafferty brought it up on his rarely watched TV show. Then there are the current links to Katherine Yurica’s 2004 article “The Despoiling of America: How George W. Bush Became the Head of the New American Dominionist Church/State.” Quoting from J. J. Ligon Duncan’s 1994 article “Moses’ Law for Modern Government, that cites Kenneth L. Gentry’s book God’s Law in the Modern World(1993), she asks “What would a ‘reconstructed’ America look like under the Dominionists?”:
“1. It obligates government to maintain just monetary policies … [thus prohibiting] fiat money, fractional reserve banking, and deficit spending.
“2. It provides a moral basis for elective government officials. …
“3. It forbids undue, abusive taxation of the rich. …
“4. It calls for the abolishing of the prison system and establishing a system of just restitution. …
“5. A theonomic [God’s law] approach also forbids the release, pardoning, and paroling of murderers by requiring their execution. …
“6. It forbids industrial pollution that destroys the value of property. …
“7. It punishes malicious, frivolous malpractice suits. …
“8. It forbids abortion rights. … Abortion is not only a sin, but a crime, and, indeed, a capital crime.”
If this is what Dominionism is all about, then give me more of it! I suspect the majority of Americans would also like a dose of it.
