Synopsis
The noted writer Dan Wakefield is a practicing Christian who is appalled at what has happened to America and his religion. In his view, the religious right, motivated more by politics more than by faith, has virtually absconded with scripture, stolen the terms of the debate, and narrowly focused the agenda around their concerns. Wakefield is mad as heck, and he's not going to take it any longer. He offers a view of Jesus more in line with his readings of scripture: a Jesus concerned with charity, understanding, community, and peace. He identifies topical issues which he feels people of faith should be concerned with and which a Christian worldview might address: war, poverty, hunger, and the erosion of the individual liberties. In his passionate argument, in the form of a series of interviews, Wakefield names names (George W. Bush, Bill Frist) of those he blames for warping religion as he tries to rescue the thing he holds most dear.

Publisher's Note
A critical analysis of modern-day practices in right-wing fanaticism, conservative politics, and distortions of the Christian faith, written by a devoutly Christian film and television producer, contends that the Bush administration and its supporters have inappropriately used religion to advance political agendas that are inconsistent with true Christian values.
