Textul de pe ultima copertă
This
book
gives
a
personal
insight
into
the
hearts
and
minds
of
a
fundamentalist
Christian
sect,
the
Open
Brethren.
Using
Brethren
magazine
articles,
obituaries,
and
testimonies,
Peter
Herriot
argues
that
the
Brethren
constitute
a
perfect
example
of
a
fundamentalism.
Their
culture
is
entirely
opposed
to
the
beliefs,
values,
and
norms
of
modernity.
As
a
result,
like
other
fundamentalisms
they
challenge
modern
Christianity
and
impede
its
efforts
to
engage
with
global
society.
