\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This week on Yeah Nah Pasaran!<\/a><\/em> we talk to Talia Lavin [X\/Twitter<\/a>, Bluesky<\/a>]. Talia is a journalist and writer and a keen fan of swords and sandwiches<\/a>. Her latest book is titled Wild Faith: How the Christian Right Is Taking Over America<\/a><\/em> (Hachette) and answers the question ‘WWJD?’ if he was an American warlord rather than a Jewish pacifist.<\/p>\n

All across America, a storm is gathering: from book bans in school libraries to anti-trans laws in state legislatures; firebombings of abortion clinics and protests against gay rights. The Christian Right, a cunning political force in America for more than half a century, has never been more powerful than it is right now\u2014it propelled Donald Trump to power, and it won\u2019t stop until it\u2019s refashioned America in its own image.<\/p>\n

In Wild Faith<\/em>, critically acclaimed author Talia Lavin goes deep into what motivates the Christian Right, from its segregationist past to a future riddled with apocalyptic ideology.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wild Faith<\/em> is released in the US next week and in Australia in December<\/a>. Pre-orders are encouraged and you can read an excerpt — ‘Breaking a Child\u2019s Will: The Evangelical family\u2019s twisted obsession with corporal punishment’ here<\/a>. The book covers a lot of territory: inter alia<\/em>, we spoke to Talia about the war on gender non-conformity, wooden spoons and child indoctrination, Christian Zionism and Revelation<\/a>. (We last spoke to Talia in October 2020<\/a> about Culture Warlords<\/em>.)<\/p>\n
