Documentary Description
Conservative evangelical Christians hold key positions in the US
Government and now they’re training the next generation to take power…
God’s Next Army investigates Patrick Henry College (PHC), set up
five years ago in Virginia, near Washington DC. Its mission is to train
young fundamentalist Christians to become the next generation of
America’s cultural and political leaders. Though the separation of
church and state is enshrined in the US Constitution, with financial
backing from the evangelical community the college aims to
‘rechristianise’ America; to ‘preserve the world from the sinfulness of
man’.
God’s Next Army shows students taking their first step
towards power, canvassing for a key Republican candidate. They visit a
conservative lobbying company which is opposing the payment of
compensation to people affected by asbestos, and is trying to repeal
estate tax because ‘the earth is the Lord’s’.
Helped by the institution’s friends-in-high-places, PHC has already
provided the current White House administration with more interns than
any other college in the USA, and more are in the pipeline – on the way
to becoming ‘key players in a Christian republic’. NOTE: This documentary has not been edited properly…the first 2:26 is the end of the show that came before.
