    About this ebook

    Come along on a frolicking journey through the ideas, influences and institutions of our culture. A clash of worldviews is playfully ? but pointedly ? portrayed. The purposes of a sovereign Creator God contrast with a meaningless naturalistic universe. The absolute truth of the Bible confronts relativism. The Lordship of Christ collides with individual autonomy. There is never a dull moment as the zany cast of characters charges through numerous issues, including: heaven and hell, evolution, New Age religion, liberal theology, original sin, Satan, suffering, the frantic pace of life, worldly lusts, death, music, political correctness, and secular expressions of law and politics. And all of this is woven together into the most compelling human drama of all: the salvation of a soul.
