Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWire) -- 02/19/2015 --The Business of Living: How to Master the Business of Being You with Scott Ventrella is to interview Michael J. Ortiz this Saturday, February 21. Michael J. Ortiz's recent article in The Wall Street Journal discusses the misrepresentation of Christian history to defend Islam and examines popular western belief, especially in light of President Obama's recent remarks about violence in the name of religion at the National Prayer Breakfast.
The Business of Living will have Ortiz share his expertise on the historic relationship between religion, freedom, and power with this week's listeners. Ortiz will explain how Christians in the West repeatedly distort the history of Christianity in an attempt to find a peaceful alternative for those in the Islamic world who support violence for political and religious purposes. Ortiz will clarify misconceptions commonly held by many people, even President Obama.
Scott Ventrella, Host of The Business of Living, says, "Misdirecting attention by calling out the Christian Crusades adds nothing to the dialogue desperately needed to overcome this great evil in our midst."
The Business of Living: How to Master the Business of Being You with Scott Ventrella is broadcast live every Saturday at 8 AM Pacific Time on the VoiceAmerica Variety Channel. Listeners can tune in with Scott at http://www.voiceamerica.com/show/2386/the-business-of-living-how-to-master-the-business-of-being-you
