Описание: A century ago Ambrose Bierce published his The Devil's Dictionary. The tradition has now been revived, one may presume by way of the same nefarious source, in the form of The Democrats' Dictionary. The great French philosopher Voltaire said, "If you would debate with me, define your terms." Voltaire himself composed his own Dictionnaire Philosophique, a work in which he defined his philosophical opponents' terms for them, as did Ambrose Bierce. It is by so doing that one is best able to expose the absurdity of counterpositions. Democrats, like politicians from all quarters, are masters of obfuscation. Their "talking points" seldom reveal their true positions or agendas. The purpose of this modest dictionary is to provide something of the transparency which is so wanting among the Democrats and which they themselves are loathe to provide. Shall they thank me then for my service? In speculating on that answer, my policy shall be to obfuscate. "A relentless expos on the duplicity which is the Democrat Party." (Jeff Becker, Author) "When C. S. Lewis had written his Screwtape Letters it was alleged that the author knew the Devil better than he knew himself. I believe Comix has amply demonstrated that he knows the Democrats better than they know themselves." (Satan, The Prince of Darkness) "I'm totally confused, folks." (Joe B., Politician) ANDREW MARVELL COMIX-Named for the famous seventeenth-century English poet and satirist, Comix brings the art of political satire up to date.
Описание: Contrary to what you may have assumed, it is not the purpose of this provocatively-titled book to furnish a manual for the collapse of Christianity. It is rather an observation as to what has already begun to occur and will reach its consummate phase should the church refuse to receive the warning. I compare the structure of Christianity to an ancient building supported by four columns. Those columns represent the elements of the Christian belief system advanced by the church. They are specifically, "theological clarity," "ecclesiastical unity," "personal authenticity," and "spiritual exclusivity." The great nemesis of the church is what I identify as "cultural Christianity," that is, the secular form of Christianity which rejects Christ's radical countercultural message and substitutes in place of the bona fide columns their antitheses, namely, "theological vacuity," "denominational diversity," "nominal identity," and "secular inclusivity." Once the cultural-Christian reconstruction is complete, Christianity is bound to collapse. Fifty years ago the theologian Francis Schaeffer began to sound the death knell when he observed that America had already become "a post-Christian nation." Since that time things have only gotten worse. It is my prayer that this book will serve to recall the American church-as well as the church throughout the world-to its Christ-mandated mission and message. Only when the church has learned to distinguish and distance itself from cultural Christianity by becoming the church again will it be enabled to refortify its columns and avert the prospective collapse of Christianity.
