This will make you think.

This book will challenge, possibly offend and shock many a Christian reader. The arguments are compelling and convincing, adding further to the unsettling effect it will have. Agree or disagree, it will make you think.

A must read

Everyone should read this book before they enter a voting booth.
THe information is real and documented. Compare to the likes of the
radio host whom will have you believe their spin which as no basis,enlighten yourself with facts that You and you alone read and make your own decisions.
Very well done. Luanne Grignon, Waukesha Wisconsin

A refreshing (and a little scary) view of church and state

As an evangelical Christian, I have been very disturbed at the blurring of the lines between the republican party and the christian church. This book gives a cogent scriptural argument for the separation of church and state . . . not for the sake of politics, but for the sake of the purity of the church. This is a must-read for the evangelical christian. Many of our co-religionists have been following a dangerous path towards the idolatry of the state.

Great book, a new perspective

This is a fresh look for Christians and it is long overdue! It is great to see a more thoughtful consideration of politics and Christianity.

Things that are Caeser's

Rev Boyd reminds us that when you mix politics and religion neither comes out the better. Jesus Christ gave his followers one charge, and that was to care for the poor. There is not one word about political parties or getting out the vote.

Passing more laws will not makes us a better people or a better nation, living better lives will. By all means, get involved in the political process, join the military, join service clubs and give to Caeser the things that are his. But when you enter the House of God, follow His rules.
