Description
Religion ¿ The Defamer of God brings together two perilous topics of conversation ¿ organized religion and politics ¿ and amalgamates them into a timely referenced, scholarly researched, and topically refreshing book unrivaled by any other in its class that reveals how these two subjects have worked in perfect unison to form the modern world to where we are today in regards to global crime, terrorism, political servitude, the curtailment of individual freedom in democracy, a broken global economy, and the suppression of genuine faith and individual free-will. Organized religion is maligning freedom of speech, genuine democracy, the struggling single parent, the oppressed woman, the loving same-sex relationship, the sexually liberated young person, the victim of street crime and global terrorism, the ignored desperate-hearted in our midst, the searcher of truth and justice, and the sincere seeker of faith ¿ while mankind ambivalently acquiesces to the destruction of personal freedom, self-esteem, and its very self. The Defamer of God pulls no punches, and boldly suggests an alternative to both religion and political servitude ¿ that being a personal faith of free will that refuses to be driven any longer by fear, political spin, pious tradition, social expectation, bad history, and political correctness ¿ or alternatively, no false-hearted faith at all, when manifest as forced-upon and traditionally-based religiosity that only creates modern-day dictators, terrorist mass murderers, and self-righteous stumbling blocks to genuine faith in our workplaces, sanctuaries, communities, streets, societies, and nations in the modern 21st Century in which we find ourselves in.
