MEDIA ADVISORY, Sept. 9 /Christian Newswire/ -- Hudson Institute President Herbert London argues in his timely and wide-ranging new book, America's Secular Challenge: The Rise of a New National Religion (Encounter), that the pervasive culture of secularism in the United States is an inadequate response to radical Islam. In the so-called war of ideas, London explains, our reflexive belief in relativism has handicapped our ability to thwart the inroads of fanaticism, as secular humanism has destroyed the West's only beliefs worth defending.

At this luncheon event, London will discuss his book, and Judge Robert Bork will provide commentary.

Of the book, the Washington Times says, "Reading London's forcefully argued and gracefully written book makes one understand why religious belief matters."
