Summary: Stay on Your God Given Path
Review: Life has thrown many a hell bent curve when we stand up and say words like, "God Bless You," or "We'll pray for your family," only two that got our family written up in a school report warning us to keep quiet. Isn't this amazing - to think we can't even speak what our hearts and souls want to say about ourselves or others in public places? I praise this book and wished there was a way everyone could and would read it. It may raise some eyebrows but there's plenty of other authors who have done the same and stood by their words anyway. For example, I heard an interview by Jodie Lynn, who is a parenting/family columnist and author of Mommy-CEO. She was saying that many of the would be publishers of her book asked her to take out the poem in the front of the book and the prayer in the back that, of course, both mention God. They dropped her when she stood up and said, no way. This is what America needs, a no push no foolish proud to be Christian stand. If you want to make a difference in your family, your life, your spirit and in your country, support these brave authors by buying their books and telling others about them as well. These are the type of individuals who have the leadership to encourage us to achieve our own personal goals while staying on our own God given paths and to make things count.

Summary: Definition of Persecution
Review: I read this book and it seems to me that Limbaugh misses the mark....I fail to see one example of Christians being killed or tortured by liberals....Again it seems that Limbaugh and his supporters will define persecution as anything short of legalized government imposition of their beliefs on those of us who happen to dare to disagree with them..It is time for the "Christian Right" to realize that they are neither "Christian" or "Right"

Summary: Catherwood's review is right but so is Limbaugh
Review: Christopher Catherwood's review (like his brilliant book on Islam) is right to say that Christians cannot be beaten into extinction. But he is wrong to say that Christians are not being persecuted in the USA by liberals - there, Limbaugh is triumphantly right. So while Catherwood is right to say that the Gospel will prevail, Limbaugh's book is essential reading to all Christians wanting to know how to survive the current persecution. Read both books and you get the right balance.

Summary: BFI, Jr.
Review: Riding on the rather expansive coat tails of his brother, Limbaugh does what this family seems to do best: bash anyone who disagrees with them by presenting catalogs of falsehoods that tell a good tale.Someone of this ideological leaning lent me this book for which I lent him "The Godless Constitution." He came away from finishing his reading enlightened, I came away angry. Atheists/agnostics/brights like myself, whatever label you choose to adopt for us, have no interest in shoving our beliefs, or lack of them, down anyone's throats. We simply want religion left as a personal matter as it is laid out in the bible (my father is a retired Navy chaplain and I grew up on this stuff but it never caught on in my head; I could never make sense of belief). Yes, the religious have a right to proselytize if they so desire but when someone says, "Not interested," it's time to leave it at that. Children can pray in school and can gather as believers in after school groups. I have lived in many places in the US and I never came across a situation where this was forbidden. What is forbidden is state-sponsored proselytizing. For better or for worse, politicians can express their religious beliefs but should not use those beliefs to cloud their judgments about what is fair for all Americans. And, they certainly should not try to turn our great democracy into a theocracy. People can display religious symbols whenever they want on private property but should not expect the public dime to pay for it. There are exceptions, of course. If you own land in a community and your agreement in that community includes no postings on one's property...but you knew that when you bought it. In short, people like Limbaugh need to get off their hobby horse and realize that public service was not meant to be mixed with private religious belief. That's the way the constitution was written, and what so many of the arguments were about with the founding fathers. They settled on the separation of church and state as the best means for promoting religious life, which they wrongly (in my opinion) equated with a moral life, and the pursuit of a politics of common good (so politicians could not abuse the power of religion as we have seen them doing for so many years). Go read "The Godless Constitution" as a good primer on the origin of the debates about America's religious politics then use the index to delve deeper if you are so inclined. Leave Limbaugh's book on the bookstore shelves if you want the truth.

Summary: Seperation of Church and State
Review: I have read the book and lots of the reviews about the book. For starters, lets start out with the myth of the seperation of church and state. Is it in the constitution..... no. that little portion of the constitution says that the congress shall make no law establishing a religion, or the free expression thereof. The seperation "Clause was based on a letter sent from Jefferson to I believe Madison. Now, the book is trying to illustrate that the free expression of religion is attempting to be stiffled by certain groups. I do not believe that many of the people who wrote reviews of this book actually read the book.

Summary: This is a political response to a spiritual issue
Review: If you read most of the New Testament you will quickly get the impression that God's people are going to be persecuted. In many parts of the world, this is still very much the case, with Christians being beheaded and other various evil things. Nothing this bad is happening to the growing and dynamic Christian church in the USA - and since when has a sympathetic government made any difference to God-given spiritual growth? Churches where Christians are REALLY being persecuted (like in China and much of Nigeria) are bursting at the seams! It is spiritual growth that will change the USA not grumbling about lost political rights, however seriously and genuinely unpleasant that might be. At least no-one in the USA has been beheaded for converting to Christian faith! Christopher Catherwood, author of CHRISTIANS, MUSLIMS AND ISLAMIC RAGE

Summary: Excellent
Review: This book tells it like it is, how the lefties are in fact nothing more than enemies of Christianity and the US, and how they are waging an all out Jihad against it by using our own court system. This book will make you gag at the outright blatant hypocrisy of the ACLU. The ten commandments may not be shown in court even though our laws are based on it, yet the California legislature mandates a 3 week course for 7th graders on Islam. Excuse me ACLU, where are you?

Summary: Excellent wrap up
Review: I can't say that any of the stories were unfamiliar. In fact, most of them would be known to anyone who listens to talk radio once in a while. In fact, I suspect that talk radio had a great deal to do with getting this little book published (what is in a name, if you know what I mean, nudge nudge wink wink) Still when all the stories are put together in one volume it makes an impressive case and is a useful volume.
This was an impulse buy- Amazon suggested it after I bought Onward Muslim Soldiers. Between the two books we get a disturbing picture: America busily eradicating every public expression of Christianity while deferring to dangerous radical Islamists in ways that are both shocking and dangerous. If such trends continue, in fifty years France will be a sharia state and the United States will be like the France of today. As to what might happen in a hundred years I shudder to think.

Summary: "And when you pray,
Review: . . . . . . you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men . . . But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly." (see Matthew 6:5). This is what Jesus said. Nowhere in this book does Limbaugh explain how this clear instruction of the Lord means anything other than what it means. How someone can write a book about Christianity, and leave out Christ and his teachings is beyond my understanding. The notion that Christians disagree with each other over doctrine and approach is as old as Christianity itself (see the "Gnostic Gospels" by Elaine Pagles). I am a Christian and I find this book to be ridiculously dishonest. Oh, and I suppose that you could call me a liberal, since as a Christian I understand that my religion exists as it does because of the separation of church and state, not in spite of it. Something that the governments of Iran and others could learn from. To understand the prejudice and ignorance of this book, one only needs to read the title. Limbaugh clearly believes that his version of Christianity is the only real Christianity. However, to title the book accurately, "Liberal Christians Disagree With Fundamentalist Christians," wouldn't generate the necessary heat to put a lot of money into David Limbaugh's pockets (Mr. Limbaugh, don't you remember what Jesus warned about a Camel, a rich man and an eye of a needle?). If you are interested in real persecution, after refreshing yourself on what Jesus actually taught, check out books like "Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America," or "Pipe Dreams: Greed, Ego, and the Death of Enron." Here you will get a sense of people who are really suffering.

Summary: Persecution
Review: Finally, a book that spells out how our current political and social system, a supposed system of tolerance, is intolerant to anything that does not fit, or runs contrary to the liberal viewpoint. A great book that should be read in every public arena, and be required reading in the 'not so public' school system.
