In the culture wars that rage around us today, few of the people who use that word as a weapon have any sense of its source, its nuances, or the ultimate elusiveness of its definition. The same can be said for a lot of other words from the vocabulary of faith, like religion, fundamentalism, or tradition. By decoding the hot-button words of religious language, Gary Eberle exposes their misuse as weapons of emotional rhetoric—while telling the fascinating real story of their history and shifting meanings. De-fanged and examined closely, the words he unpacks for us emerge as too complex and interesting to be used simply as verbal bullets. His entertaining analysis of “god-language” will open your eyes to the origins of some words you thought you knew. It also offers a hopeful new vision for genuine dialogue in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Trumpeter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45255190085685,"sku":"ByrdShop_1590304322","price":53.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781590304327_40b009ef-c9aa-495b-93f2-dd7f9c56e72c.jpg?v=1779924170","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/dangerous-words-talking-about-god-in-the-age-of-fundamentalism-9781590304327","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
