Religion on Capitol Hill Myths and Realities Book

I picked up this book because it seemed to be a treatise on not only the philosophical necessity of faith, but also the philosophical necessity of the Christian faith specifically. To be clear, I was not expecting a silver bullet, slam dunk argument that would seem to convert the most ardent skeptic, but I was hoping at least for something to confound much of the misinformation swirling around American culture about what Christianity is and isn't, both inside and outside the Church. I was not disappointed. Clark spends a fair amount of time teasing out the necessary outcomes of humanistic logic and philosophical/ideological systems. Is he comprehensive? Not necessarily but I don't think he's trying to be. The bottom line to me is that there is no bulletproof system and we are all clinging to our respective systems on faith, whether we claim to have faith or not. Clark is a sharp guy and does as good a job as anyone (and better than most others I've read) at dissecting arguments for and against religion, reason, and revelation as the title indicates. This certainly is a worthwhile read for any Christian as well as anyone who has an interest in reason and faith as it shows the necessity of both. Highly recommended.
