"...apparently there is no end to the demand for near-future stories about persecuted Christians. Somehow the more powerful the religious right grows, the more desperately Christians cling to the fantasy that they are only one act of Congress away from being herded into concentration camps" (93).
~Rapture Ready by Daniel Radosh (2008)
I read Rapture Ready in the early summer of 2012 when the Presidential campaign was in full swing and this quote really struck a chord with me. I absolutely don't think this is true for all Christians, but the ones that were very vocal in the press at the time certainly gave that impression.
