Document. Book review of "The Churches and Politics in Germany" by Frederic Spotts in COMMONWEAL. ~ Gordon credits Spotts with a thorough, well-balanced and detailed account of the history of church involvement in German Political affairs. He gives a summary of some of the involvements and activities of the church and asserts that the church has a right and even an obligation to use its influence in political affairs. Religious leaders have a role to play in the ordering of political affairs to serve the ends of justice, however mistakes of the past should not be repeated. ~ Commonweal ~ 511-12
