IRD President and Providence Editor Mark Tooley commented:
"There's plenty of evidence that the Church and its related institutions are not equipping believers with the Christian-informed intellectual tools they need for addressing global statecraft. Yet, there are centuries of remarkable church tradition about understanding the purposes and limits of political power."
