Why do evangelicals have a compulsive need to believe God controls everything

7. You won't believe how far they go

I'll re-post what I have in another thread

For years I wondered why the Ugandan nationals were given a rifle with a bullet proof vest to guard Baghdad International Airport (the checkpoint going on -- I was there and saw for my own eyes). I didn't think of it as much more than a quirk because all the others were trafficked, abused, and exploited and treated as if they were all potential terrorists (most come from India, Nepal, Phillipines, and some North African countries. I'm starting to get a better understanding of why and it starts with Inhofe.

From Booklist
Even after the sexual affairs of several congressmen brought the Fellowship (and its D.C. residence on C Street) into the light, most Americans have still never heard of this elitist fundamentalist organization. Even those who have will have trouble getting their heads around a mostly faceless organization whose goal is to convert the world to a trickle-down Christianity, as Sharlet calls it, where God has chosen the leaders (them) and everyone else follows. With our leaders somehow prechosen, it makes it easier to forgive their transgressions (the Fellowship, for example, has no problem working with heads of state like Haiti’s Papa Doc Duvalier and those in present-day Uganda, who advocate the death penalty for homosexuals).That this heavily financed, multilayered organization has been operating for decades—and today is actively implanted within the U.S. military—makes this well-documented, probing investigation even more mind-bending. Mostly, those in the Fellowship don’t talk. Maybe now the discussion will start. HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY: When the affairs of Fellowship members Senator John Ensign R-Nev. and South Carolina governor Mark Sanford broke, Sharlet’s book The Family became a best-seller. His follow-up is sure to attract similar attention. --Ilene Cooper --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

More recently this is what is going on in Uganda -- 'I Kill Them!': HBO's VICE Goes To Uganda To See What American Anti-Gay Christians Have Created

American Christian extremists have found a willing host in Uganda, where they have so dramatically affected the culture that average citizens now consider raping and killing gay people a duty.

The latest episode of HBO's VICE, "A Prayer for Uganda," exposes what American Christian extremists, like Scott Lively, have done to the country of Uganda. A poor, landlocked nation of about 37 million people, Uganda has become synonymous with its "Kill The Gays" bill, that was debated for year, generating international condemnation and fear. It became law and then was tossed out by the Ugandan Supreme Court, but only on a technicality.

VICE interviews Member of Parliament David Bahati (image, top left), who authored the bill. "Homosexuality is evil," he says. Bahati is a member of the secretive Washington, D.C. based organization known as The Family, which has helped to coordinate the war against LGBT people in Uganda.

Author and professor Jeff Sharlet, also featured in the VICE episode, exposed their work and their members – several of whom are U.S. Congressmen and Senators who take up residence at a luxury C Street boarding house – in his books, The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power, and C Street: The Fundamentalist Threat to American Democracy. Among them? U.S. Senator James Inhofe, who, VICE reports, has traveled to Uganda at least 135 times.

More than the horrifying reality and it is very disturbing as the woman journalists quickly got uncomfortable hearing them talk about lesbians need a rape. I thought it was bad real but they are simulating sex in front of children with the guy walking away with a bloody diaper or girls taught that being a lesbian will prevent them having a child -- taught there are 10 or so unique cancers that target only homosexuals.

THE U.S. CHRISTIAN RIGHT AND THE ATTACK

U.S. conservatives’ exportation of the culture wars to Africa has been building for decades. Our dedicated researchers have been working to uncover and expose those in the U.S. who are using their dangerous rhetoric aggressive interventions to devastate the lives of so many overseas.

This is from the VICE journalist that cover the situation and it truly was a disturbing. On HBO so difficult to find for free.

VICE correspondent Isobel Yeung – that's her face in the top right image – interviewed poor, working class men. She wrote later, "I don't ever recall feeling as heartbroken as the week we spent shooting this."

The men tell her that the first thing she needs to know about their culture is "we hate is homosexuality." That is the first thing of which they are proud. Not arts, science, their families, their heritage – not even their perverted interpretation of Christianity.

Previews at the top link -- I encourage to find a way to watch it if at all possible. At-least they're putting hard work, effort, dedication and consistent play and giving god all the credit -- the "corrective rapes" takes control to whole 'nother level and we have the likes of Inhofe to thanks.
