The Politically Incorrect Guide to Christianity

by Michael P. Foley

Overview

You think you know about Christianity, but did you know...

• Christians have always believed that men and women are equal
• The correct pronoun for angels is "he"
• Science was stillborn everywhere outside the Christian West
• Christianity, which first taught the world to value victims, is now the victim of a victimhood culture
• Many "miracles" are actually historical facts
• Famous atheists haven't been disinterested seekers of truth, but indiviudals with "issues" of their own
• Planned Parenthood kills more people every six days than the Spanish Inquisition killed in 350 years
