Globalization, the attack on democracy, the mistreatment of women, and the growing AIDS pandemic are but a few of the topics taken on by these courageous sermons that dare to challenge the prevailing mindset that labels democratic protest as unpatriotic.

This collection of hope-inspiring messages, accessible to persons of all faiths, is anything but anti-American. In fact, they speak to the very core values held high by this country for so long.

Weapons of Mass Distraction is a welcomed theological dialogue with the great social issues of our generation, coming from the perspective of the "silenced majority": those who's protest cries against wars of aggression did not make the evening news; and who's votes in the 2000 presidential election were ignored to the detriment of millions.

Finally, Weapons of Mass Distraction is a call to action; a call to all those who "see the trouble we are in" and have the courage enough to do the work of rebuilding the walls.
