Product Description
Contemporary society prides itself on its veneer of tolerance. It is an attitude that apparently makes liberal democracies of the west superior to other cultures. Looking below the surface, we discover our society is actually superficial, amoral and prejudiced. The tolerance we espouse is no more than a sticking plaster covering a festering wound. It is to this society we as Christians are called to stand for truth and express God's love. The diversity of our society causes us great challenges. Some ridicule us because we believe in the existence of a creator. Others despise us because we claim Christ is the only way to God. Still others criticize us because of the high moral standards by which we live. How are Christians to respond and how tolerant should we be? Do we simply accept evolution as a given, learn to live with the immorality within our community and accept all other faiths are true? Questions are asked about the health of our societies and answers given from a Christian viewpoint.
