What can you you say to or about people who believe in the ultimate moral relativism, that radical Christians would slit the throats of and behead nonbelievers "if they only had the chance"?

This book described in this article sounds so irrational that it doesn't appear illustrating it's errors would be fruitful. If the author is that insane then rational discussion won't resonate with him.

Actually it is the left that is waiting, this is all just projection on his part as to what Socialists in this country would like to do.

That is why first they must take away the guns to defend ourselves.

I thought this might be about Rosie and her comment about how Christians were as dangerous as islamic jihaddis.

We're no longer satisfied to simply sell the hanging rope to our enemies. We just go ahead and buy the rope ourselves and put it around our own throats.

Io saw Hedges on c-span. He has that same crazed, steely eyed look you see in angry Marxists from move-on.org. They are really just trying to convince Christians that Jesus was a socialist and would want them to be Democrats. The paranoia has been spreading for quite a while. I first heard it from a friend who teaches at a LA college and was married to a prominent Hollywood director. during the clinton impeachment. They have peddled immorality and have climbed over the bodies who have fallen to get their success, so they are an elite threatened by resurgence of morality.

Gee, they're doing such a good job of it.

I guess this is a case of wishing Mr. Hedges was right...

Note to the authors of the above referenced books: Before writing about a subject, please become familiar with it. Attempts to slander the subject matter, in this case Christianity, will gain no traction with those who actually know something about it. Your books are selling mostly to those who aren't well read and largely uninformed. Try again.

Tell Mr. Hedges that "it's all true!" We are going to force America to love thy neighbor, and to share bread with the hungry, and *gasp* donate to charities.

And to have general overall literacy and the HORROR, to know "right" from "wrong" by teaching....Moral Absolutes.......

/sarcasm off

Someone actually paid to have this book published.

I guess we'll find Hedges head on a pike real soon. NOT!

Hedges is a coward.

Bump and mark.

Very appropriate. Some "big tent" Republicans on this board are singing a similar tune. Interesting times.

I simply don't buy the author's thesis. If you do, then you place yourself under the obligation to accept with equal alacrity the "well I didn't really mean that" backtrackings of every liberal who makes an equally moonbatty or anti-American statement.

Both sides of the argument would do well to step back and take a deep breath....lest they incite....

Yep, the back pedal and say they 'didn't mean' yet the original statement is out there and floating, continuing to enable the poisoned, paranoid minds of other liberals.

Now Christian's goals for the future of America are the same as the Islamist's goals for America?

Words cannot explain how ignorant that idea is.

The author of this book should be stoned (or is stoned).
