What is Faith, Reason, and the War Against Jihadism : A Call to Action about?

<p><P>&#8220;History must be <i>made </i>to march in the direction of genuine human progress; world affairs have no intrinsic momentum that necessarily results in the victory of decency. Maintaining the morale necessary to achieving progress in history requires us to live our lives, today, against a moral horizon of responsibility that is wider and deeper than the quest for personal satisfactions. The future of our civilization does not rest merely on the advance of material wealth and technological prowess; the future of the West turns on the question of whether our spiritual aspirations are noble or base.&#8221;<br>&#8212;from <i>Faith, Reason, and the War Against Jihadism</i><br><br>More than half a decade after 9/11, safe passage through a moment of history fraught with both peril and possibility requires Americans across the political spectrum to see things as they are.<br><br>In this incisive, engaging study of the present danger and what we must do to prevail against it, George Weigel, one of America&#8217;s foremost public intellectuals, does precisely that&#58; he sees, and describes, things as they are&#8212;and as they might be. Drawing on a quarter century of experience
