All too often the Church throughout history has attempted to buy peace through compromise, standing with civil government rather than with Jesus. Humanism invariably rushes in to fill the world's theological vacuum - the need of the hour is to restore a full-orbed, Biblical, theology of the state! This book documents the Christian's understanding of the relationship of church and state.

I burst with excitement when I received this. Rushdoony is one of my favorite authors. His poetry is a glimpse into his soul.

Difficult to read.

Rushdooney, if you aren't used to him, is very philosophical, and uses long words with ease and comfort. Reading his writing for the first time and trying to keep up with him can be mentally taxing to the unprepared.

The subject material is... well, I think "disgusting" is a fitting descriptor. Anybody who desires to discuss pornography in a straightforward and matter-of-fact manner will have their resolve tested, for the depravity of the human heart can turn the stomach.

All that said, Mr. Rushdooney makes excellent points and provides superb material for someone looking for a reasons to condemn pornography for the filth that it is.
