Have you noticed a change in how Christianity is treated by the general public, and how it is portrayed in the media? Does it seem to have gone from a trusted group to one that is on the fringe of reality. David Fiorazo looks into this in his book, Eradicate: Blotting God Out in America.

Fiorazo takes a look back at events from the history of America, beginning with the Founding Fathers and going through today. He gives insight into what was the driving force behind forming a new country, and why one should even bother to know about the history of America and its foundations.

Fiorazo then tells about events that have pushed God out of America, or made fun of Him and those who trust in Him. Abortion, politics, media and several others are examined. Where and when the changes occurred, and how they affected the role of God are looked at.

Many people who write on this topic just rant and rave about “heathens” turning away from God, but Fiorazo lays the blame, not on those who made changes, but on the Christians who stood silent. We should have spoken up, and still need to speak up. Yes, there are people who make it their mission to keep God and Jesus our of everything, but we do not have to sit on the sidelines.

What I like is that David Fiorazo does not tiptoe around the problems, or the causes; he tells it in a straight forward way. He also does not tell us to go after them, but to stand up for the truth.

One issue that could come later with this book is that it addresses current events as of 2012. As with any current event, things change, and some of the topics could become dated. It still would serve as a great resource.

I received this book from Bookcrash.com in exchange for reading it and giving a fair review.
