In regards to current events, I wanted to recommend a book that you can get from the library or bookstore. One of the interesting points that it brings up is that when men link up with "liberated" women, then they feel that they no longer have any responsibilities themselves, like fatherhood, providing for a family, and fidelity. Anyway, I do think that you will find it interesting. Also, another interesting book to reread at this time is our book Marriage and Family that you can link to here http://www.gnmagazine.org/booklets/FM/ .

Product DescriptionThe latest in the New York Times bestselling series! The Politically Incorrect Guide to Women, Sex and Feminism is the perfect antidote to the lies told in boardrooms, locker rooms, and universities that are brainwashing young women every day. From the Back CoverWe’ve been duped.
We were raised to think we could have it all. In college we were told that men weren’t necessary. Pop culture told us that career—not family—came first. The idea of being a stay-at-home mom was for losers. And yet are we happier than our mothers or grandmothers, who grew up before women were "liberated" by the sexual revolution? For many women, the answer is no. In The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Women, Sex, and Feminism, Carrie Lukas, a young career woman and new mother, sets the record straight: correcting the lies women have been told and slamming the door on the screaming harpies of NOW, feminist professors, and the rest of the bra-burners who have done so much to wreck women’s lives.
Bet your feminist teacher never told you:
* Women’s lib has "liberated" men from having to commit, "freed" women from marriage, and often "unshackled" women from having a family. * More than ever, women in their twenties and thirties live alone, are discarded by boyfriends after "living together," and are watching their biological clocks tick past the point of no return. * Women still prefer men who are breadwinners and can protect them physically.

Dark Horse
I wanted to let you know about this book that came out this year. It does show the problems that getting involved in politics can lead to, in a somewhat entertaining way. One of the main problems is that people do seem to have to compromise their principles to win elections, especially in a party politics system. Of course, our own church does publish some booklets that talk about the coming King of Kings who won't have to be dependant upon anyone for electoral favors such as this booklet
http://www.gnmagazine.org/booklets/JC/ which is well worth rereading again if you haven't in a while. Anyway, the book I wanted to let you know about is reviewed below if you are interested in it.

A Look Behind the Curtain,
By
Bill Wood "Perimeter reader" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
Dark Horse is a fast paced story that could have been easily lifted from newspapers or right off of the network news programs. Although it was a little challenging at the very beginning, probably due to the reader being dropped into the middle of a political process with a large cast of characters, Once you sort out the players the payoff is worthwhile. Ralph Reed has been involved in bare knuckled politics for many years. It is obvious from the tags for this book, that he continues to be a lightening rod of vitriol from his political adversaries. I suppose success brings both adoration and vilification. Notwithstanding all of that, Dark Horse is a fun read, in the way that Bill Buckley's Blackford Oakes series are fun to read. One gets the sense that as this story unfolds the reader is treated to a behind the scenes look at the intrigue of a national campaign. Who better to let us in on that than one who has been in the center of many political storms over the years. Though Reed portrays politicians and religious leaders reasonably realistically, every one appears to be brawlers when the gloves come off in the heat of the battle. it is easy to imagine that much of the story was drawn from Reed's experience as a consultant in the political process and a former candidate for office himself. That little touch of realism makes the story that much more interesting. If you are looking for a fun read with a little constitutional education and political drama, Dark Horse fits the bill. For the aspiring young politico, Dark Horse captures the heat and emotion and does so in a manner that one would not mind their kids picking up the book and reading it. Hopefully Ralph will give us another book in the no so distant future that extends the story line of some of the interesting characters we have met in this book.
