The title does say all

This book is exactly about the subject indicated in it's title. Should I stand up against something which is wrong, or should I just surrender and let it pass.

Hard to describe how fascinating this was, but I was amazed at the depth of insights the good doctor had on this issue. Mostly focuses on Christian perspectives, but not entirely, so those of any religious background or persuasion should find this useful.
