Approaching Australia Day you reminded me starkly how racist beliefs inspired by evolutionary notions gave those looking for an excuse a solid foundation for writing our Aboriginal brothers and sisters off as nought but sub-human leftovers of human evolution. How different would those days have been and again how different would be the situation today if the Australian Christian church had trusted God’s word and (with Wilberforce in mind) publically stood firm, rejecting man’s shallow constantly changing ‘scientific’ opinions. “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them” Genesis 1:27.
This is not like so many great books where the author writes about something about which they are knowledgable, passionate but personally detached. This is one of the rare books where the author "pours out his heart", based on his lifetime of creation ministry. I consider this book to be a "must-read" for anyone needing to better understand the dynamics behind racism, and how it plays out in the world we live in.
Thank you so much for this book (One Human Family). Whilst it is a scolarly and complete work, it is also easy to read and nicely segmented for the man in the street. My wife and I truly believe, as your book has shown, that the answer to the world's problems today can be unearthed by digging in the Bible. Reading your book can turn the lights on for Christians and non-Christians alike. Thank you for spending your life working on problems like this. People won't know many of these facts, figures and attitudes unless they read it in a book like this. God bless you and CMI worldwide.
This is just a brief note of sincere appreciation for the huge effort, inspiration and passion you have put into One Human Family.
I have just finished it and have been so incredibly blessed, educated and challenged. You so succinctly cover many important topics, yet with a frankness and style that makes it so very easy to read-and yet so hard to put down!
As I got to know you even better through your personal anecdotes, I realised how absolutely ideal you are as the author for such a book. Your own family background and experiences provide powerful backing over and over again for the topics you cover. I also really like the layout and format of the book. The highlighted features are eye-catching, interesting and educational, linking to the main body of the text in a very relevant manner.
I have ordered a number and will be prayerfully giving them away to key people who I know will be greatly impacted by the material covered by your book. It is so timely, ‘spot-on’ and greatly needed in such a day as this!
Your book, Carl, was so good, I put the others down until I was done with yours. I kept making notes in the margins stimulated by the numerous, vital subjects you addressed. You covered so many of the concepts and conclusions addressed in the other books I was reading, yet you were able to tie them together into a coherent, cohesive unit centered around the truth of God’s Word.
… your book was a major benefit in tying together my own thoughts on so many related subjects (biblical epistemology, race vs. culture, capitalism/communism vs. sin nature, true racism vs. “crying wolf”, unequal people with equal value, the real root of single-mom families… I could sit here and write many pages of specific praise and thanks. …
As a 30 year Christian family counselor and science teacher, I found your distinction between culture and race to be equally as effective as the genetic evidence to combat true racism. …
Take care and know that we are grateful for all that you have done for our lives and for so many others.
Immediately gets the reader’s attention… stays that way to the very end-nothing boring in this book!! Page after page of interesting and important facts of history, science, culture, etc. … should be in every library on the planet. Thank you CMI/Dr Wieland.
