Rating: - Dividedd States of America
I thought it was a well written book on the political standings of Liberals and Conservatives. I thought the author was very objective and "hit the mail on the head" most of the time.
Rating: - Blessed Are The Peacemakers -- If Richard Land Isn't Making Peace, It Isn't His Fault
When it comes to politics (or religion, though that is not the point here), most books come from the point of either why the author's political philosophy is right and/or why those who disagree with the author is wrong.

Rating: - MUST READ!
Dr. Land has done a great job with this book. He maps out a middle ground in the church/state separation debate that is very understandable. Both the novice and the expert will find the book readable, engaging, and thought-provoking. A lady at my church has already read the book and asked me to consider teaching a special six-week Sunday School class based on it. Anyone who wants to know a constitutionally acceptable, faith affirming position on church/state issues must read this book.
Rating: - Thank you Dr. Land
Having been raised in the Southern Baptist church, I have been following Dr. Richard Land for many years & I would like to thank him for this excellent book. There is much too much shouting from the left & the right (although more often from the left)on what role & what kind of role that religion should play in American politics & culture. Anyone wishing to hear a rare & thoughtful balanced look should read this book as soon as possible.
