My Review: Pending...
Description (Audible): In the spirit of George Carlin and Christopher Hitchens, the son of a former Catholic nun and a Franciscan brother delivers a deeply irreverent and biblically correct takedown of far-right Christian hatred
Description (ChatGPT): Fugelsang, a comedian, broadcaster and self-described “son of a former nun and Franciscan brother,” turns his attention to how he believes Christianity—particularly the right‐wing, fundamentalist version—has been co-opted as a vehicle for politics, power and exclusion rather than the original message of compassion and justice. The book works through common debates (abortion, immigration, LGBTQ rights, guns) and examines how he argues they’ve been mis-represented in the name of “Christianity,” then offers scriptural and moral counters grounded in what he sees as the “true” teachings of Jesus.
