This passionately argued book provides the first in-depth
investigation of the religious politics of current American
neo-conservatism. It shows that behind the neo-imperialism of the
White House and George W. Bush lies an apocalyptic vision of the
United States's sacred destiny "at the end of history," a vision
that is shared by millions of Americans. The authors trace the
roots of American apocalyptic to Puritan Millennialism and
contemporary fundamentalist readings of the Book of Revelation.
They suggest that Americans urgently need to recover a critique of
Empire of the kind espoused by the founder of Christianity--or else
risk becoming idolaters of a new Holy Roman Empire that leads
others into servitude.
