| Faith and Politics: How the “Moral Values” Debate Divides America and How to Move Forward Together by S |
|||||||||||||||||||
Customer Reviews: Boring Do not operate machinery while listening to these cd’s Moral Relativism at the Forefront A thoughtful book on uniting rather than dividing In his career, Danforth has mostly been a lawyer and a politician — both professions that generally reward aggressive, adversarial stances. Yet in this book, Danforth’s thinking draws more on the accommodating, uniting position that most would associate more with his third, much more peripheral career as a priest. Tying those three viewpoints together in a thoughtful, personal discussion on a variety of issues makes for a book that is a pleasant but important read. The chapters on abortion and gay marriage caught my interest the most. Danforth does not takes sides on these issues as much as question whether they should have the importance they do. That makes sense. Does it really matter to the vast majority of us how these issues are resolved? Not really. Given their relative unimportance, it seems that we could find a way to take the heat and anger, on both sides, away from these issues. A win by either side will, practically speaking, mean little to the losing side. But as Danforth points out, “church fights” too happen all the time, and often over less than important administrative issues. (As he notes the most ferocious fighters on these battles over church issues are retirees, who presumably have little else to do with their time.) As many college deans and presidents have noted about faculty issues, the most heated battles tend to be on the least important issues. In politics too, the same applies. As others have noted here, Danforth does not offer much in the way of a solution. And what he does suggest is not the value that this book offers. Instead, the way he thinks and the way he writes on these issues provide us with a wonderful guide on how we should address them as well. With compassion, not just passion. With thoughtfulness, not anger. And looking for areas on which to agree, not disagree. As a model on how to discuss wedge issues, Faith and Politics has a value beyond what Danforth says on the issues themselves. The words are not too important. How they are said is. Interesting After reading the first chapter alone I was absolutely blown away at what I was reading. Danforth may be too little too late but at least he made an effort period. His concepts, to me, display the truth about politicians using christianity for profitable gain in any form possible (in a nutshell). He spends much time clarifying his points with text from the bible and making an attempt to interprete their purpose in politics today. The fact that he’s a republican is even more impressive that he had the guts to write such a novel. Please understand… This book was not written to give answers to all the problems. It figures that people would despise this book because it doesn’t give an answer, and typical at that. As a famous artist once said, “Computers are useless because they only give you answers”. This book is the inbetween. We as people have become computers only interested in finding the answer ALONE not concerned with the thought process that it takes to GET to the answer. With that mindset, we will never find the answer. It is the INBETWEEN that is the most vital. To myself, this novel provides yet another vital step to understanding faith and politics in attempt to reach that answer that we seem to try to find. Bravo to Danforth.

| Intel PWLA8391GT PRO/1000 GT PCI Network Adapter | |||||||||||||||||||
Features: Customer Reviews: Another great Intel Product In this case, I had three of my systems being operated and maintained at an off-site facility, and I brought them back into my own facility. Some one of the maintenance guys at the off-site facility had swapped out my Intel adapter for a NetGear adapter on one of the systems (I have no idea why), and I didn’t immediately notice the change. After having a tough time getting my system, high speed cable network, and DIR-655 router working together, I narrowed the problem to the system’s network adapter. I purchased the Intel PWLA8391GT from Amazon at a good price, received it in a timely fashion, and after installing it on my troubled system, everything worked well. Intel makes good products. This is one of them. Excellent Gigabit NIC Intel PWLA8391GT PRO/1000 GT PCI Network Adapter Can’t go wrong
