96%(!) Markdown on Kindle Ebook on the Christian and Social & Political Issues

In a deviation from the norm, Amazon at the present has this ebook much cheaper than even Christianbook ($0.99 to $2.99). Is there a pricing error at Amazon? I dunno. All I say is "git it wile da gittin' iz goot."

Taking Christian Moral Thought Seriously (B&H Studies in Christian Ethics). By Jeremy A. Evans; Daniel Heimbach. Rated 5 stars, but from only 1 review at the present moment. Print list price $24.99; Digital list price $24.99; Kindle price now $0.99. http://www.amazon.com/Taking-Christi...ught+seriously. Christianbook has this ebook in the ePub for $2.99; the price at Kobo (ePub, also) is $15.49. I didn't check elsewhere; is there really any point to it?

Book Description
The Death Penalty, Environmentalism, Public Reason, Voting, Abortion. Where does Christian faith belong in discussions about these issues?

In
Taking Christian Moral Thought Seriously, editor Jeremy A. Evans establishes that separation of church and state is not a principle of the United States Constitution (or any other founding document). Thus, there should be a social interest in not hindering any religious person’s full participation in the American marketplace of ideas. As such, Evans addresses readers from both the Christian and non-Christian communities through the related scholarship here, knowing either side’s failure to consider one’s well-prepared thoughts in science, politics, and education undermines the very idea of seeking the truth.

Topics include:

* The death penalty
* John Rawls’ theory of public reason
* Whether or not a non-voting stance is permissible for Christians
* Religious disagreement and its impact on the justification of religious beliefs
* How the current models of scientific explanation are not incompatible with religious beliefs
* Creation care—what is our responsibility to the environment?
* Are theologians and philosophers missing the point on the abortion problem?
