Read "Toxic Faith: Liberal Cure. A Reasoned and Judeo-Christian Response to the Alarming Assertions of the Religious Right."

BuzzFlash.com's Review (excerpt)

"This book is an answer to those who claim that liberalism is immoral and is somehow destroying the cultural values of the USA. It also seeks to provide a careful and reasoned response, in a specifically Judeo-Christian context, to many of the most vocalized and divisive current issues: patriotism, war, abortion, homosexuality, poverty, and the environment. Using quiet, confident scholarship and reason, the authors seek to restore and energize a more informed response to the Religious Right"

What impressed BuzzFlash about this book is how grounded it is in countering the Biblical arguments of Fundamentalist Authoritarians by returning to Biblical text and pointing out the selective interpretations of the religious right (which is really the "religious wrong").
