An Inconvenient Truth

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“In the book, An Inconvenient Truth, Dr. Ashley Davis argues that modern society has sacrificed the biblical basis of personal culpability for crime to blaming criminal behavior on other forces such as genetics, gender, culture, and skin color. As a licensed professional trauma counselor, I see the tragic damage to souls because of selfish choices made by others who won’t take responsibility for their actions. Dr. Davis calls for a return to a biblical worldview of ethics and morality based on personal culpability for crimes committed by those inside and outside the criminal justice system. By re-recognizing and re-implementing such a system, the goal is that justice is meted out that is appropriate to the crime while providing opportunities for behavioral and emotional redemption.”
