Stuckey Allie Beth - Toxic Empathy How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: We are told that empathy is the highest virtue - the key to being a good person. Is that true? Or has 'empathy like so many other words of our day - 'tolerance 'justice 'acceptance - been hijacked by bad actors who exploit compassion for their own political ends? In Toxic Empathy Allie Beth Stuckey argues that empathy has become a tool of manipulation by left - wing activists who bully people into believing that they must adopt progressive positions to be loving. She explores the five most heated issues through which toxic empathy is deployed: abortion gender sexuality immigration and social justice. Progressives use catchy mantras to present their perspective as empathetic like 'abortion is healthcare 'love is love or 'no human being is illegal but in each case they ignore the other side of the moral equation. For example abortion is presented as compassionate for the woman but what about the human life the procedure kills? This book isn't about killing empathy; it's about submitting our empathy to God's definitions of love goodness and justice. Stuckey exposes the logical pitfalls and moral consequences of toxic empathy equipping Christians with research - backed Biblical truths to dismantle the progressive lies that have permeated our culture - and our church.
