The fact that “good evangelical Christians are Republican” seems obvious means the propaganda is working.

Professor and author Scott Coley helps us understand how evangelicalism became fused with right-wing politics and now presses evangelical theology into the service of authoritarian politics, which he outlines in his new book Ministers of Propaganda: Truth, Power, and the Ideology of the Religious Right.

Scott M. Coley is a lecturer in philosophy at Mount St. Mary’s University. His research interests include philosophy of religion, moral epistemology, and political philosophy.
