Relinquished control to the Lord are the ones who are actually in control and who walk in life and freedom. Jesus said, “For whoever desires to save or control his life will lose it, but whoever loses control of his life for My sake will find it” (Matt. 16:25, nkjv). A recent instance is the new book by Zbigniew Brzezinski, National Security Adviser to President Jimmy Carter and a leading light of U.S. Foreign policy. Out of Control aims to describe the political dynamics of the post-cold-war world; it is also interesting for what it reveals about Brzezinski.

Rarely has there been a book as explosive and challenging as this brilliant analysis of today's massive geopolitical disorder. The triumphant collapse of communism has brought neither economic stability nor social democracy to the former Soviet Union.

Nor, for that matter, to the rest of the world. We are living in a time of fragmentation: increasing disunity in Europe, dangerous eruptions in the Islamic republics, growing disparity between the world's rich and poor, and the evils of the 'permissive cornucopia' in America which, through overstimulation of material desires and sensual self-gratification, is leading to the collapse of Western moral and spiritual values. In short, we are living in a philosophical climate that is 'out of control'.

It is Zbigniew Brzezinski's firm belief that we must draw both moral and political lessons from the 'megadeaths' of the twentieth century, a century in which at least 167 million people were slaughtered in the name of the 'politics of organized insanity', or the 'metamyths' of such dictators as Hitler, Stalin, and Mao, among others. Unless we can practice selfrestraint derived from a moral commitment in the quest for global democratic 'interdependence', we stand destined to risk again our very own survival.
