Are you one of the many people in our society who are burdened
with guilt as a result of your Christian upbringing, or who feel
perplexed or confused by the mixed messages of fear and love Christianity
sends? If you are, a new book by Mark Mason, called In Search
of the Loving God, may be for you.
This book uncovers the truth about the barbaric history of the
Christian church - how, right through the middle ages, it used
punishments enforced through the governments it controlled to
brutally subdue women and force its will on all parts of society,
and how much of current Christian belief was introduced to control
people through fear during those times, and is not based on the
Bible at all. The discussions of church history and contemporary
issues in this book will give many people the insight into Christianity
they need to overcome their guilt concerning it, and will help
all of us better understand the movement which so strongly underpins
our society and culture. Mason claims the horrors of medieval
Christianity haunt our society in much the same way as suppressed
and un-dealt-with childhood traumas haunt the lives of many adults,
and that we in our abused society need to remember what happened,
feel the anger, and insist on apologies and repudiation of medieval
doctrines from the churches involved. Then we can begin to heal
our relationships with God. In Search of the Loving God
goes a long way toward guiding us to this reconciliation.
The author spent many years researching Biblical sources, the
history of Christianity, and its social manifestations, in order
to write this book. He has an attractive web page which includes
two whole chapters from the book, so you can effectively browse
through the book before deciding to buy it. Its URL is: www.markmason.net
