Focusing in detail on Protestant fundamentalism in the United States, Jewish fundamentalism from 16th-century Spain onwards and Muslim fundamentalism over the last 400 years, Armstrong examines the patterns that underlie fundamentalism.

Christian Fundamentalism, including the Independent Fundamental Baptists (IFB) presents itself as the last bastion of faithfulness to the Word of God and the teachings of Jesus Christ.

An eye-opening and hard-hitting work, When Religion is an Addiction not only puts the political activities of the right-wing in a new perspective, but explains how liberal responses have often enabled religious addiction to thrive. Dr. Minor applies contemporary understandings of addictions to the extreme Christian right-wing in the United States and concludes that for them religion is functioning as a process addiction. Crucial to the addictiveness of such religion is its obsession with human depravity, the ultimate expression of low self-worth.

This format is an amazing tool and is, in my opinion, Jeri Massi's finest work in her outreach to victims of clergy abuse. The workbook offers valuable lessons and simple instruction for those who ...
