If you're only going to buy one resource on sexuality/HIV education, make it this one.. He just really goes out on the deep end at too many spots.
Most of what he claims about the middle east and terrorism however is quite intersting. It doesn't start with the gloom and doom, but is gradually leading towards it.
Call to Arms follows a few different perspectives and is well done. This gentleman had a ready facility with words and rapier wit that comes through in abundance in the book. The colors are bold and bright, rhyming is rythmical and sweet.. He simply dismisses those who question Pauline authorship with the wave of a hand.
