The Anti-War (eBook, ePUB)

Peace Finds the Purpose of a Peculiar People; Militant Peacemaking in the Manner of Friends

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book advocates a renewal of the traditional Quaker peace testimony, to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Today's darkening human prospect forces Friends to reclaim their identity as a people of God that resists the dominant culture and wages an "anti-war," a militant inversion of empire's militarist imperatives.
