America is at a critical moment in its history. Behind us lies Vietnam. HIroshima. A legacy of war. Clearly, in this nuvlear age, our future - our very survival - depends on our ability to break our "war habit."
But obstacles stand in the way. One of them, incredibly, is religion. In the lion's pride, Leonard I. Sweet focuses on the sometimes all-too-cozy relationship in America between religion and war. Sweet takes a close look at America's "with God on our side" militarism, examining its historical origins and consequences. Employing both historical and biblical perspectives, the lion's pride offers fresh, poweful insights into: America's dominant war mentality. How our war language affects our war thinking. The issue of peace, as informed by many disciplines and perspectives. How Christian peacemaking can be realistically " put to work" in a frigteningly sinful and complex world. The lions pride is an indispensable resource for every Christianwho desires a workable vision of peace in this nuclear age. |
