Synopsis
A theologian and ecumenical consultant who has served in the World Council of Churches, the Lutheran Church, and Costa Rica, M ller-Fahrenholz tries to make some sense of religious undercurrents in the public culture and political life of the US. He hopes that an outsider may be able to identify elements that Americans are too close to see, acknowl, As struggles over the global war on terrorism continue to rage, many in the United States and around the world do not understand the course of events that led from September 11, 2001 to the current expanded conflict. In this careful, lucid exploration of the elements in America's civil religion that have steered the country on its present course, a path to understanding emerges. Calling Europe, Central America, and North America home at times, German Geiko M]ller-Fahrenholz has the perspective of an outsider who yet loves the United States, making him uniquely qualified to present a portrait of how American society is perceived throughout the world and how the current religious factor in politics can look like a pious cloak thrown over secular selfishness. In exploring super-patriotism, the "lost opportunity" of 9/11, and the dangerous clash of fundamentalisms, M]ller-Fahrenholz confronts America with its image seen in the mirror of the rest of the world -- and with the urgent need to reinvent itself before it's too late.
