Return To Order

John Horvat has a new book named Return To Order. 

CHANDLER, AZ (April 25, 2014) – The nation is on course for self-destruction as a result of ignoring our God-given moral compass, which ultimately keeps everything in balance, according to John Horvat II, author of Return to Order: From a Frenzied Economy to an Organic Christian Society —Where We’ve Been, How We Got Here, and Where We Need to Go. Horvat, who is an internationally followed author and scholar, is sparking a movement among Christians who are eagerly tuning in to hear his messages about the need to return to faith and family in an age of exploding technological advances and unhinged economies.

Horvat will bring his much lauded presentation, “Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother: The Key to Bringing America Back to Order” to Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center in Cincinnati, Ohio at 10:30 a.m. on June 7. The center is located 5440 Moeller Avenue.
“Our blind embrace of an economy driven by the pursuit of instant gratification, regardless of the consequences, is unsustainable and has thrown us into a state of socioeconomic chaos,” says Horvat.
In his book, Horvat draws from his rich Christian past to explain the correlation between the economy, faith and moral values. Without relying solely on statistics and economic indicators, he shows how society’s obsession for a secular, materialistic culture is causing social and psychological emptiness and economic ruin. With five Catholic institutions of higher learning and more than 400,000 practicing faithful in the region, local advocates of Return to Order requested that Horvat bring his message to the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.
Return to Order ranked #1 on Amazon/Kindle in four countries in December, has sold 20,000 copies to date and has received dozens of endorsements from scholars, clergy, politicians and other leading American and European figures.
Return to Order provides an interesting analysis of how the United States has departed from the spiritual, cultural and economic precepts that supported the founding and the early history of our republic,” said the Honorable Edwin Meese III, Former Attorney General of the United States. “It also sets forth valuable recommendations for restoring our society to its foundation of ordered liberty and traditional values.”
In addition to Return to Order, Horvat is the author of hundreds of articles, some of which have  appeared in The Wall Street Journal, FOX News, The Christian Post, The Washington Times, ABC News and C-SPAN. Horvat’s writing has been compared to that of Richard Weaver and Russell Kirk, both major conservative intellectuals.
Horvat will lead discussions and participate in book signings at more than a dozen cities including my nearest city, Cincinnati on June 7.
I have read some not so glowing reviews of the book, but its theme is something LuAnn and I talk about often.  I don't see us "returning to order" anytime soon if at all.
Do you?  Can you "pass" the technology quiz?  I doubt any of us can, especially if you are reading this.

  1. I thought the quizz link was an ad that inserted itself in your blog. What's wrong with having more screens than persons in the house, some are for personal usage, others are made to be shared, like the television, totally different usages too, a computer is much more interactive than a television set. Or what's wrong with having more than 2 email accounts, you should probably have one for each web site you subscribe to for security reason, as long as you can view all email accounts from the same app or site.

    One Amazon critic was wondering why Horvat was praising the French King Louis IX so much, when he lost his army, the city of Damietta, 3.3 tonnes of fine gold as ransom and 4 years of his life on his first crusade, and his life on the second. Is it because he killed many Muslims? Or because he wasted 1.1 tonnes of gold ($46 millions) purchasing a fake crown of thorn and fragment of Jesus' Cross? How is that a sign of piety and not of the kind of irresponsibility that the author denounces? Never mind...

    I think a book so antiquated (St Louis, really?) and heavily oriented toward Christian religion is hardly likely to present the objective facts that a more scholarly book would have. And while I haven't read it, it seems to be highly insulting to atheists and non-Christians who also share moral values that are not the monopoly of Christians by far.

  2. Yes it could be offensive to some but the direction our country is going is offensive to me. I would really like to see a more orderly society. I have seen a constant decline since I was young enough to remember our simple life in the 50's. I miss many of the good things we had then but that is not realistic and not the way life works.

    You didn't fail me with your comments, I expected as much.

  3. Glad to oblige! ;)
    Well the direction part of the country and the world is going also seems bad to me, but that does not mean we can go back to an all Christian and conservative society, just like we cannot go back from a technological society to the wheelbarrow and just iron forging. There are modern ways to embrace those challenges that do not disrespect people, and we have people smart enough to deal with it. Probably need to abolish state governments for what should be nationwide legislation, the U.S. really seem like a mess of confusion because of this, and a waste of redundancy in most areas. That would also reduce the overall size of "Big Gov."
