In 'Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds,' John Fugelsang, a son of a former Catholic nun and a Franciscan brother, confronts the misuse of Christianity by far-right extremists. With a tone reminiscent of George Carlin and Christopher Hitchens, Fugelsang combines humor, biblical knowledge, and radical honesty to dissect and counteract the far-right Christian rhetoric that has infiltrated American politics and society. Addressing hot-button issues like abortion, immigration, and LGBTQ rights, he uses scripture and logical argumentation to expose the inconsistencies and manipulations in fundamentalist positions, offering readers tools to effectively engage in discussions and advocate for a true Christian ethos of love, mercy, and service. This New York Times bestseller is a must-read for believers, atheists, agnostics, or anyone grappling with the implications of Christian nationalism in contemporary America.
