Sex, Swords & Scripture

By Bertie Franke

What is the biblical source of enmity between Israel and Palestine? Should religion dictate national and international policies? What basis does the Pro-Life movement have in scripture? Are natural disasters punishment for man's sinfulness? What do Muslims believe about Jesus? What does the Bible actually say about homosexuality? Is the Bible the literal word of God? Do Judaism and Christianity have similar predictions about the End of Times?

This book answers these and other pertinent questions with documentation delivered in an informal and even humorous style that sets it apart from more academic works in circulation on the same topics. Extremely timely in light of the unprecedented rise of Christian Nationalism and emphasis on religion in politics evident in America, and globally, it is guaranteed to be an easy, interesting but also challenging read. It will surprise, if not shock, many who thought they knew everything they needed to know about the Bible and its conflict with social evolution in Western culture.
