Sinopsis:
In this compelling book, Fr Himes argues that politics and religion are matters too important to be left to politicians and religious leaders. More significant than electoral campaigns and government, church-state relations are about how we ought to live together, how we should organize and govern our common life. Politics - and the political choices we make - must be guided by considerations of national and global justice and peace and, for Christians, by the teachings of Jesus, as interpreted by tradition.
