However,  as  we  have  covered  in  previous  chapters,

            secular  solutions  tend  to  embody  one  or  more  of  the
            following shortfalls, specifically:


            A  solution  that  uplifts  one,  yet  suppresses  others  can
            never work.  A solution that considers only one side, but

            ignores the valid and critical issues of the other side can
            never work.  A solution that convicts a person or a group

            for  the  sins  of  others,  including  prior  generations,  has
            already  failed.  A  solution  that  imposes  permanent
            condemnation  with  no  forgiveness,  and  no  salvation

            violates  GOD  given  dignity  and  freedom.  Finally,  the
            most  tragic  of  all,  solutions  that  ignores  the  gifts  of

            reconciliation and lasting healing have no possibility of
            working.


            In general, secular solutions are laced with unintended
            consequences  that  ultimately  exacerbate  the  existing

            problems  and  create  many  new  ones  that  can  be  far
            worse.  The end result is that they are inadequate in and

            of themselves.


            The  simple  truth  is  that  they  fail  to  attack  the  root
            causes  of  the  problem.    Typical  of  secular  humanistic
            approaches,  the  problems  regarding  so-called  racial

            issues  are  often  erroneously  defined,  analyzed,  and
            understood. This leads  to solutions that are off target,
