Description: In this New York Times bestseller, David Limbaugh exposes the liberal hypocrisy of promoting political correctness while discriminating against Christianity. From the elimination of school prayer to the eradication of the story of Christianity in America from history text-books, this persuasive book shows that our social engineers inculcate hostility toward Christianity and its values in the name of "diversity," "tolerance," and "multiculturalism." Limbaugh explains through court cases, case studies, and true stories the widespread assault on the religious liberties of Christians in America today and urges Christians to fight back to restore their First Amendment right of religious freedom.

Review Summary: Excellent book to alert you!! |

Details: I get the National Catholic Reporter....every week there are stories of Christians being discriminated and persecuted for their faith here in America. In 5 or so years, I haven't seen a one of those stories in the national liberal press. Over the 5 years i can see it getting worse. I am an independant, wish i could vote for either party, i say this because especially bad are democrats who seem out to attack "real" Christians...recent examples are laws passed to force Catholic charities and hospitals to offer (forcibly pay for) birth control, abortion, and homosexual adoptions, all against our faith. Wake up, the day is coming when it will be illegal for pastors to preach against homosexuality or other things the liberals dont like , just like a few countries in Europe and Australia (A pastor recently went to jail for reading the Bible in church, reading from the passages that talk about homosexuality). Limbaugh is sounding the alarm that this is coming. |

Details: Mr. Limbaugh provides insights into political persecution of Christians in America. Expect most ideas that have made Western civilization great to become illegal or twisted in the next fifty years. An excellent and insightful analysis of the culture war against Christians. |

Review Summary: Disheartening Compilation |

Details: I picked this book up because it was quoted in several other books I have read. It was actually depressing to see how many recent cases there have been of Christians being persecuted for their beliefs in a country that was founded for the escape of it! We've heard these stories in the news over the years but the impact doesn't hit you until you see them all compiled between two covers. Very informative and well-written. I am looking for other books by this author. |

Review Summary: Who's inflicted more damage on Christians--Saddam or W. Bush? |

Details: Admittedly, I saw this prominently displayed on a bookstore shelf and couldn't resist spending some time (too much) with it. How profiteering alarmists like Limbaugh and his lot can continue getting mileage out of demonizing "the media" (translation: the limited media that doesn't reduce all global, national, and local issues to an "us vs. them" mentality), portraying "liberals" as infidels, antichrists, and domestic terrorists, and without even defining what a "liberal" is, simply boggles the mind. In lieu of defining "liberal" (which might require some historical research and even abstract thought), it's always a matter of singling out poster "bad boys"--newscasters fallen out of favor, educators who believe in the value of teaching not rules but how to think, scientists who teach what has been known and proven by enlightened beings for thousands of years, along with gays, feminists, pro-choice, anti-capital punishment, anti-NRA types--and keep hauling them out for yet another pummeling before the insatiably sadistic haters of all things rumoured to be "liberal."
Understandably, there's a considerable hard-core "conservative" base (but certainly not "conservationists" of the Constitution or of the tolerance represented throughout Christian texts) that requires books like Limbaugh's as periodic reminders of their own significance--better to be a victim or martyr than a non-entity. The central issue, as even Limbaugh & Co. would claim, is about security--however, it's not national security but personal insecurity that makes these fear-mongers attractive to so many uninformed readers. The fans of the Limbaughs, Coulters, O'Reilly's, Hannerty's (whatever happened to "intellectual" conservatives like Buckley?) are drawn to this stuff not for enlightenment but personal reassurance--it makes them feel better about themselves.
Most of these righteous far-righters, moreover, support the Iraq initiative and view all the tragic waste of resources--monetary, cultural, and human lives--as worth it, if only to take out Saddam--and also because if it happened under a Republican president perceived as "conservative," it must be right. It's unlikely this audience will ever take the time to read a modern history of Iraq ("Understanding Iraq" by William Polk might be a start). They would learn that since (and because of) the American invasion a small but nonetheless vital Christian community in Iraq has virtually been eradicated by radical Islamists, its churches emptied or bombed to smithereens, the surviving members forced to seek refuge in Iran, Syria, Jordan (certainly not the open arms of the U.S.A). Maybe that's the "war against Christianity" that Limbaugh really has in mind. It would certainly be much closer to the truth.
At its core the meaning of "liberal" is change (and, of course, progress). Yes, America has changed in many significant ways over the past 100 years, and at an accelerating pace over the past 40 years. We have become less religious, but through our own backsliding and consumer distractions, not because of some "nefarious plot" that not even a Joe McCarthy could have dreamt up. And we have become more open to other points of view--to a great extent because the numbers and developments in our society have increased at such a rapidly exponential rate that we could not exist as a nation without greater tolerance and acceptance of one another. But if Mr. Limbaugh wants to see a real, blood-spilling war against Christianity, he's looking in the wrong place; if he wants, moreover, to see the face of those who perpetuate such wars, he needs only look in the mirror.
Finally the true "liberal" has been exposed, and he's every bit as bad as Mr. Limbaugh claims. |
