In \u003ci\u003eFaith and Politics\u003c\/i\u003e, he explores the widening rift between left and right, conservative and liberal, believer and nonbeliever. Danforth takes on many of the polarizing hot-button issues, including stem-cell research, abortion, school prayer, and gay marriage, and addresses how we can approach them with less rancor. Arguing that voters must call for our leaders to turn away from wedge-issue politics and work on our country’s pressing problems, Danforth’s book is a much-needed clarion call to all Americans.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e “A lucid, powerful book that is at once reflective and instructive.”—Jon Meacham, former editor of \u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e “[A] meditation about the contested terrain where politics and religion intersect.”—George F.
