“Unless the 80 million evangelical Christians in our nation wake up to whom the enemy really is, humanists will soon accomplish their goal of work domination” – p. 35
Mind Siege is a book by Tim LaHaye and David Noebel which was published in 2000. It claims to be an update of LaHaye’s Battle for the Mind(1980) that sparked, according to him, the rise of the Evangelical Christian movement we all had to deal with in the 1980′s and today.
LaHaye is a leader of the Evangelicals and is the author of the Left Behind fiction series about the “end times” of Bible prophesies. He also helped found the Institute of Creation Research. He has never been a friend of Humanism.
David Noebel is the founder and head of Summit Ministries and has written many books about the conflict between Christianity and Atheism/Humanism/Marxism/New Age.
I had the chance to read the book when I found out a co-worker had bought it and was reading it at work. He thought I was interested in the topic so he let me borrow it. I read the book so you don’t have to.
I wanted to find out what LaHaye and Noebel had to say about Humanism. I wanted to see if they got their facts correct. They get some of the names and dates correct, but like all critiques like this, they reach the wrong conclusions. It is at most a political book full of propaganda.
