Chapter Five: Faith in action

Section 4: Children

Some of the issues here are covered in Protect the children.

Chapter Five: Section 5
God and Mammon





Can faith move mountains?

People create God in their own image. What happens when they not only believe in God but put their faith into action?

The results are predictable: good people do good things in the name of religion and bad people do bad things. They act in God's name but God is irrelevant.
