It's amazing how many health problems this book thinks could be avoided if one just believes in God enough. This approach to addiction in particular looks counterproductive to me - likely to heap additional guilt on Christian drug addicts and likely to inspire contempt for addicts rather than compassion.

This is supposed to be a science textbook, not an ad for McDowell's book. As for the rest of it, I don't think any of us really expected anything else from a text published by Apologia Press, did we?

Accepting evolution is just plain silly.

Gee, I wonder if anything about the capital-G capital-D Great Depression merited some desperation.

Real science is apparently something only white Christians do.

Silly progressives, thinking that people should have the right to elect their representatives.

What's more, this argument doesn't even follow logically. Senators elected by a corrupt state legislature aren't likely to do what's "right or better for the nation." That's what corruption does. Corrupt senators aren't even likely to "follow the immediate desires of the public." So what gives? 

And if you're still suffering in spite of that, well, I guess you're just not Christian enough.
