Attack of the Theocrats
Author: Sean Faircloth
Publisher: Pitchstone Publishing (US&CA)
ISBN: 0984493271
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
At no time in history has the United States had such a high percentage of theocratic members of Congress—those who expressly endorse religious bias in law. Just as ominously, especially for those who share the values and views of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, at no other time have religious fundamentalists effectively had veto power over one of the country's two major political parties. As Sean Faircloth argues in this deeply sobering yet highly engaging book, this has led to the crumbling of the country's most cherished founding principle—the wall of separation between church and state. While much of the public debate in the United States over church-state issues has focused on the construction of nativity scenes in town squares and the addition of "under God" to the Pledge of Allegiance, former politician and lobbyist Faircloth moves beyond the symbolism to explore the many ways federal and state legal codes privilege religion in law. He demonstrates in vivid detail how religious bias in law harms all Americans—financially, militarily, physically, socially, and educationally—and directs special attention to the outlandish words, views, and policy proposals of the most theocratic politicians. Sounding a much-needed alarm for all who care about the future direction of the country, Faircloth concludes by offering an inspiring 10-point vision of an America returned to its secular roots and by providing a specific and sensible plan for realizing this vision.

She was born Amiyah Joy in the kingdom of Nostrebor. Some called her AJ, but her grandmother called her Princess Amiyah because she recognized that she was born with a very special gift. It was the same gift that was evident in her grandfather, the Grand Duke of Nostrebor, Prince Rosford, who lost his life under dubious circumstance. It was alleged that his older brother, Prince Jaydomi, had a yearning to rule Nostrebor. When the kingdom was given to prince Rosford, his older brother made a declaration that as the firstborn, he should have been given control of the kingdom. When they returned from the annual moons of hunting, it was feared that Prince Jaydomi had done something unthinkable to his brother, but it could not be proven.

Unveiled
Author: Esther Ahmad
Publisher: Harvest House Publishers
ISBN: 0736972315
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
To my earthly father, my only worth was through my death. But God saw me so differently that, at first, I could barely comprehend it. Esther Ahmad thought she knew the way to earn her Muslim father’s love. She raised her hand for the suicide mission, her martyrdom guaranteeing her family a place in heaven. But God had a different mission for Esther—a journey out of Pakistan, from despair to hope, from shame to purity, and from Allah’s wrath to a Father’s love. In Unveiled, Esther examines a world in which women have no rights, no worth, no voice, and she shows how the treatment of Muslim women is linked directly to Islamic teachings. With vivid personal stories, she lays out the lies of the Qur’an against the truth she found in the Bible. This is no academic comparison but a question of life or death: What is a woman worth?
