What would it mean to take both Jesus Christ and Abraham Lincoln seriously and attempt to translate love of God and neighbor into every quarter of life, including law and politics? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTimothy Jackson here argues that agapic love of God and neighbor is the perilously neglected civil virtue of our time -- and that it must be considered even before justice and liberty in structuring political principles and policies. Jackson then explores what \"political \u003ci\u003eagape\u003c\/i\u003e\" might look like when applied to such issues as the death penalty, same-sex marriage, and adoption.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy P.
