Musings on Matthew Murray

The scenario fits neatly into the Pentecostal vision of the universe, Raschke points out. Pentecostals tend to view spiritual life as a battlefield, he says, with Christians warring against "the prince of darkness and his minions." About nine years ago, when Raschke was studying New Life Church, he viewed a section of the campus dedicated to such "spiritual warfare." "They had this whole command center at the World Prayer Center, down in the basement," he says. "They called it spiritual mapping. Sort of like a spiritual Cheyenne Mountain. You know, where they were recognizing where the forces of the enemy were getting ready to attack, and they were mobilizing to meet the force." In a sense, he says, Murray's attack was almost like a transfer from the spiritual battlefield to the physical one.

Cheezis K. Rist. A "spiritual" Cheyenne Mountain. What's fucking next? When do these people just start nuking us? "Bring 'em on," we say. Brought to our attention by alex constantine's blacklist.
