“The Reverend Douglas Wilson may not be a professional historian, as his detractors say, but he has a strong grasp of the essentials of the history of slavery and its relation to Christian doctrine. Indeed, sad to say, his grasp is a great deal stronger than that of most professors of American history, whose distortions and trivializations disgrace our college classrooms. And the Reverend Mr. Wilson is a fighter, especially effective in defense of Christianity against those who try to turn Jesus' way of salvation into pseudo-moralistic drivel.” WayTryingMayChristianTurnsJesusStrongDealsChristianityCollegeEssentialsRelationStrongerSlaverySalvationDefenseDoctrineFighterProfessorsHistorianClassroomAmerican HistoryDisgraceDistortionWilsonPseudoReverendsChristian DoctrineDrivel Author:Eugene Genovese

“For God to be kept out of the classroom or out of America's public debate by nervous school administrators or overcautious politicians serves no one's interests. That restriction prevents people from drawing on this country's rich and diverse religious heritage for guidance, and it degrades the nation's moral discourse by placing a whole realm of theological reasoning out of bounds. The price of that sort of quarantine, at a time of moral dislocation, is - and has been - far too high.” PeopleHas BeensCountryWholeSchoolChristianAmericaNationsInterestReligiousMoralRichPoliticianBoundsDrawingDebateNervousGuidanceRealmsReasoningHeritageClassroomDiverseDiscourseRestrictionTheologicalDegradeAdministratorsQuarantineDislocation Author:Nancy Gibbs
