Christian Reconstructionism is a Calvinist theonomic movement that some claim has played a role in promoting the trend toward explicitly Christian politics in the larger U.S. Christian Right. Christian Reconstructionists are usually postmillennialists and followers of the presuppositional apologetics of Cornelius Van Til. They tend to support a decentralized political order resulting in laissez-faire capitalism.

Famous quotes containing the word christian:
“On principle I dislike an oath which requires a man to swear he has not done wrong. It rejects the Christian principle of forgiveness on terms of repentance. I think it is enough if the man does no wrong hereafter.”
