Timothy and David Gordon be part of the present to debate their new e-book
Guidelines for Retrogrades: Forty Techniques to Defeat the Radical
Left. It’s a reverse-Alinskyan playbook for conservatives and
Christians who’re sick of being outmaneuvered at each flip by the
forces looking for the destruction of the Christian religion and the
pure foundations of the social order.
The Gordon brothers need us to cease falling for the left’s
ways, which reap the benefits of the timidity, and false humility
of right now’s conservative Christians, and begin turning the radicals’
personal ways in opposition to them as a lot as doable throughout the bounds of
Christian morality.
