Promise Keepers: A Dangerous Cult?

As you may know, "Promise Keepers," a male Christian group, recently rallied on the capital grounds to revel in the spirit of God.   However, Promise Keeper's is a radical Christian group that, frighteningly, may one day wield a considerable amount of political power.   Frighteningly not only because they are a large Christian group, but because of the views associated with them.
One of the most disturbing views the Promise Keeper's hold is that of male superiority.   The Rev.
