Some subjects are terribly complicated like Gravity, Dark Matter,
Wormholes and the whole idea of Quantum Physics. Recently, though,
these difficult subjects have taken a back seat to the search for
the historical Jesus, especially, after Dan Brown's book, The Da
Vinci Code. Yet, it should be pointed out that the search to
identify Jesus of Nazareth is not as difficult as liberals have led
to believe. One problem is that liberals refuse to debate in the
traditional manner of denying or affirming a proposition that can
be proven true or false based on the evidence. Liberals insist on
presenting hypotheses dressed in a postmodern worldview that allows
subjective imagination to be valued as highly as historical facts.
They present opinions without labeling them as such, responding
that, "My views are as authoritative as yours " They do this while
discounting and distorting concrete historical facts, without
which, conservative scholars are left shadow-boxing avoidance and
silence. ROBERT FULLER is an ordained minister having received his
BA degree in the Biblical Field from Abilene Christian University
and a M. Ed from the University of North Texas. Mr. Fuller's goal
in this book is to reduce the highly technical material surrounding
the Jesus-debates into a more easily understood vocabulary that
avid readers without degrees can comprehend. This subject is
extremely interesting and important to the laity and those who have
no idea about what is going on in this cultural conflict. I believe
this book accomplishes its goal by unveiling the "slight-of-hand"
illusions of scholars who present personal opinions in the guise of
scholarship. Read this book and find out that some liberal scholars
have stacked their bunk higher that a two-story building
In his books Somebodies and Nobodies and All Rise, Robert Fuller
exposed rankism--abuse of the power inherent in rank to exploit or
humiliate someone of lower rank. In Dignity for All, Fuller and
Pamela Gerloff offer a concise, action-oriented guide to the
concrete steps we can take to eradicate it. They focus on us as
individuals--how we can recognize rankism in our own experiences,
even in ourselves, and how, on a day-to-day basis, we can help
others to see its insidious influence and work with them to create
a better world. Fuller and Gerloff offer advice on the best ways to
forcefully but compassionately bring rankist behavior to light.
They include examples of rankism in action as well as the often
surprisingly simple things people have done to counteract it.
Perhaps most importantly, they show how we can prevent rankism from
taking root in the first place. Dignity for All will help you map
out your own personal strategy for creating a society in which
every human being feels truly valued and respected.
