MEDIA ADVISORY, Feb. 25 /Christian Newswire/ -- Anomalos Publishing has released 'The Emerging Brave New World' by constitutional lawyer Thomas A. Glessner. In the book Glessner asks the simple but chilling question: Is a Brave New World Upon Us? In light of recent political events, the answer to this question is yes.

President Barack Obama campaigned for the presidency promising to sign an executive order to release federal funds to pay for the controversial practice of fetal stem cell research. Such a practice results in the killing of a tiny human embryo but, to date, has not produced medical research that provides the promise of curing certain diseases such as diabetes and Parkinson's disease. Such an executive order, if signed, will use the full force of federal funding to promote a procedure that clearly sets the stage for the further dehumanization of the unborn and of the born as well.

In his classic novel 'Brave New World' English writer Aldous Huxley wrote of a future where human beings are manipulated, abused and even killed for the perceived good of society, where human life is cheapened and easily disposed of for the benefit of a controlling elite.

In 'The Emerging Brave New World', Glessner reviews in depth the issues of human cloning, fetal stem cell research, partial-birth abortion and the advent of the Transhumanist movement, to persuasively argue that such bio-ethical trends clearly place the direction of American culture towards the emergence of Huxley's ghoulish societal nightmare.

This is not a hopeless future scenario, Glessner says, but rather a challenge to the Christian community to once again proclaim the sanctity of life ethic, which is the biblical foundation for the gospel of Christ. Only when the church seriously accepts this challenge will the arrival of a brave new world be defeated.

Thomas A. Glessner is a constitutional attorney and the President/CEO of the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA), a public interest law firm that supplies legal services to nearly 1,200 pro-life pregnancy resource centers in all fifty states. He is a member of the bar association for the states of Virginia, Washington and for the United States Supreme Court.
