OverviewIn these pages, Roberto de Mattei argues that ""The best way to approach Islam is to respect it. And to respect it means to accept it for what it is, without 'reinterpreting' it and trying to make it what it is not."" His is such a sensible approach that it unlikely to be taken up by our leaders, because to view Islam ""as it really is"" involves jettisoning illusions upon which our foreign policy has been built for decades. Our leaders suffer from a lack of understanding, a lack of imagination, and a lack of will. They are content to serve as justification for Robert Louis Stevenson's remark that man does not live by bread alone, but chiefly by catchwords. Their thinking is that, with catchwords, we can muddle along-and we can, for a while. The true catch is that, once that while is over, it may be too late to rectify things. -From the Foreword by Karl Keating, President of Catholic Answers Full Product DetailsAuthor: Roberto De Mattei , Karl KeatingPublisher: Chronicles Press/The Rockford Institute Imprint: Chronicles Press/The Rockford Institute Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.50cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.136kg ISBN: 9780972061650ISBN 10: 0972061657 Pages: 92 Publication Date: 01 August 2007 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Out of print, replaced by POD We will order this item for you from a manufatured on demand supplier.
