About this product

Product Information

Donald Trump's no outlier, but epitomizes the malignant heart and soul of contemporary American evangelicalism, and none of its historic attributes; they are a match made in heaven. Both a timid, ignorant liberal media establishment and a cloistered, largely indifferent class of American academic drones--dwelling in what Mary Douglas might call the hallowed groves of Pentecostalism--have completely whiffed on the social, political, cultural, and theological origins of the revolution of disenchantment that carried an evangelical-inspired-and-infested Trump administration to power. Indeed, without evangelicalism: no obstructionist Religious-Right Republican Congress, no Donald Trump, no 600,000 (and rising) total Covid-19 deaths, no January 6th; without evangelicalism: white supremacists, the Alt-Right, the Proud Boys, and other extremists would still lurk only along the fringes of American society and politics. In Paradise Joe's, a rogue cultural sociologist demonstrates how evangelicalism came to occupy the ideological heart of American society and politics. He transforms what might have been a conventional academic case study into an entertaining, jargon-free tale of one small Christian college community, an account filled with memorable local and national characters, all the while gleaning from it the larger meaning and significance of evangelicalism in American life. --Why has evangelicalism made a progressive, European-style social democracy--and universal healthcare--a virtual impossibility? --Why the corrosive distrust of government and science? --Why the malingering legacy of slavery and Jim Crow, of legal and economic inequality? --Why the persistent urban/rural antagonisms? In sum, why are we so different from our closest European ancestors and kin? Paradise Joe's takes these and other daunting questions head on.
