This guy is a white Christian. He is a philosopher of sorts, an excellent writer and I believe one of the greatest living social critics of the modern American culture.
He shares with us an insight that to any serious person will be a painful and a beneficial talisman effecting the way you move and think forever. He should be required reading, but I don't know how to market this guy- I am doing a poor job of it now in fact. But do please read him- his work is very important to our society.
Some of what I have read of his includes: "What Are People For", "Sex, Economy, Freedom and Community", and "Fidelity", as well as several essays where I can find them on the web.
