This episode exposes a growing movement in Pennsylvania where armed religious groups, theonomy advocates, and legal operatives are reshaping local politics, schools, and community life.

From the Rod of Iron Ministries’ rifle-worshipping pageantry to the Mid-Atlantic Reformation Society’s push for biblical law and the Independence Law Center’s model policies for school boards, the episode explains how coordinated theocratic tactics threaten civil liberties and why the stakes are urgent.
