Jonathan Walton writes about what he characterizes as twelve lies American identity perpetuates beginning with the founding fathers up to and including present day. He details, how, in his view, American Christianity has become a false religion. America is a Christian nation; all men are created equal; and we are the land of the free and the home of the brave. These are just three of the "lies" he discusses.
This book is well thought out and well written, complimented by statistics and Scriptural references. Whether or not you agree with the author's conclusions, it is a thought provoking work. There is much here to think about.
As I write this, I find myself agreeing with many of Mr. Walton's assertions, and disagreeing with others, so I will leave you to read it, if you choose, and to draw your own conclusions. It will definitely cause you to reflect. It may make you angry. I could go on about why I believe certain premises, and why I do not believe others, but that is not my purpose here. If the subject interests you, it is a good read.
