Western Culture used to be Christian based on the Bible and the ten commandments,"In God We Trust", but now it is Humanist through our education establishments to the rest of our society.Humanism has replaced Christianity in law and education.We have become a politically correct relitivistic,darwinian humanist society.Study the Humanist Manifesto's one and two to see how the so-called fathers of Western Education did this.In his book ," A COMMON FAITH", used by my Political Science professor to teach us the religion of Humanism, Yale University Press 1934,1962, John Dewey made this perfectly clear.Here is how the book ended,"Here are all the elements for a religious faith that shall not be confined to sect,class,or race.Such a faith has always been implicitly the common faith of mankind.It remains to make it explicit and militant." Through our education establisments to lawyers,to our supreme court justices,from our professors to the rest of Western Society.Also the so-called Kinsey "science" taught to teachers in our Universities to teach to our elementary school children is dangerous.This is humanist logic that is why we have no justice in the west anymore.When we teach our kids this humanist logic of "values clarification" from elementary school through universities to make up their own minds to what is right and wrong some make their own minds up to bring guns to school and kill people.The so-called HUMANIST experts run around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to explain the reasons for this,but it does not take rocket science to figure this out.We have become a society like the ISMS we fought against in the great wars and like the countries our fathers and mothers escapped from to earn a better and just life in the West.When Christianity is replaced with Humanism by "LAW" and "EDUCATION" western society begins to unravel.You can see it all around us.That is why this book,"The Christian in Today's Culture", is so necessary. I have studyed the facts and I am becoming a christian.One has to study the facts oneself because many of the so-called churches have forgotten how to teach true Christianity in a humanist society they have become Humanists themselves.Select carefully when you vote for politicians it effects Western Humanist Civilization.Humanism is dangerous to the health and welfare of our western society. All you have to do is look at what is happening to our childrens minds all around us now.

Great companion to How Now Shall We Live

If you enjoyed the Colson/Pearcey hardback of How Now Shall We Live, you will find this a great discussion guide. This paperback is essentially the last section of the Colson/Pearcey hardback with questions for individuals or groups. (The first two sections of the hardback can be found in discussion guide format as well). If you are interested in the basics of living out the Christain worldview this is a great place to start. Although not exhaustive in content, the book offers some great stories to illustrate the main points as well as discussions on such topics as education, crime, family life, art and music--all in the context of the historical Christian worldview. Colson/Peacey also contrast the Christian worldview with the dominant secular worldview. For a person interested in the basics of the Christian worldview regarding culture or for the Christian who is tired of hearing that a Christian has nothing to offer in modern culture, this book will be a welcome read.
