| Jesus Radicals is a Christian Anarchist
resource. Just like the word "christianity" itself, the
words "anarchy," "anarchism" and "anarchist"
are abused terms. They are abused so often by the media, state historians
and government officials that, by not fault of her own, the average
person on the street only thinks of chaos, terrorists and random violence
when the term anarchist comes up.
This section of www.jesusradicals.com is dedicated to shattering
these misconceptions. Anarchism is a rich and powerful critique
of modern society that Christians have at our fingertips. We do
not wish to confuse Christianity with anarchism but we do believe
that when Christianity is lived rightly it looks a lot like anarchism.
The two are not the same thing but that does not mean they are mutually
exclusive.
While the FAQ is Jesus Radicals' most original contribution to
anarchist theory, we invite people to read our FAQ, search the links
in our resources and delve into authors in our library. These resources
are meant to break apart misconceptions and to educate Christian
and non-Christian alike as to the practical steps that anarchism
offers us in creating a more just and peaceful world right now,
and in our FAQ the truthfulness that a radically orthodox Christian
theology offers this world, which are all things every follower
of Jesus is called to do as a work of mercy.
