The Politics of God is the work which the historian Hugh Schonfield considered to be the culmination of his work and thinking. In the extensively well argued book, he builds upon his best-selling books, The Passover Plot and Those Incredible Christians as well as the decades of research into Messianic beginnings and great thinkers bringing them together to an argument for a new approach to mankind's problems based on meekness rather than power...

The capacity to save life has greatly increased at a time when violence and brutality has been intensified and the wholesale destruction of living things from plants up to humans has become a commonplace, while abundant means exist...
