Tony Perkins gives us another book about persecution of Christians


Just what the world needs — another book about how Christians in America are persecuted. Tony Perkins, head of the FRC (Family Research Council) just emailed me to inform me that I can pre-order his book “No Fear”. I love the first sentence of his email to me:

What could God do through you, if you had no fear of man?

Clearly the world needs more religious fanatics willing to martyr themselves by committing acts of terrorism so they can be rewarded with 47 virgins in paradise. Oh, wait, that’s the other “one true religion”. Still, it’s nice to know Mr. Perkins is doing his part to ensure Muslims don’t hold a monopoly on religious extremism.

Mr Perkins goes on to tell us what we’ll find in his book:

Containing stories of young Christians facing intense opposition, No Fear shows the dramatic influence one person can have as they stand resolute for biblical truth in the pursuit of fairness, justice, and compassion.

Hopefully he explains in the book how “biblical truth” differs from simple “truth”. But I suspect “biblical truth” just means “shit I pulled out of my ass.”
