For various reasons authoritatively detailed in this hard-hitting book, American Protestants as a class hotly opine that "religion and politics don''t mix." Most readers, prodded perhaps to personal recollection by Mr. Miller''s own frank distaste for "holy" crusades, will no doubt want to applaud such a view. That is, they may want to until they note also the fact that religion is mixed up in politics in all kinds of ways, whether anyone likes it or not. How the Christian faith can raise the level of political activity in the United States is the author''s highly important aim to show. Brilliantly he does show how the politically enlightened Christian fulfills the obligations of democratic citizenship, not in spite of religious belief, but inevitably more calmly, more open-mindedly, more constructively because of it. Nonpoliticalism is an American tradition. In the first three chapters of his excellent study, Mr. Miller argues why this attitude is in deep error--and takes his fellow Protestants to task for the large part they have played in creating it. The following two thirds of the book illuminate the positive connections between Christianity and politics--how the faith provides, not precise answers to specific problems, but the reason for seeing in all of them relative issues only, and for knowing that no earthly solution to them can ever be absolute, final, or complete. Today, when America is one of the two powers that may decide whether the world goes forward to unprecedented well-being or, more easily, down to total destruction, there is scant time indeed for the nation''s Christians to discover and to apply the forces in their faith of human breadth and realism. Here is the book to help them--another in a notable series of books making the whole of Protestant Christian doctrine plain and alive fore everyman. -Publisher
