Can Christians Reason in an Age of Unreason?
How Christianity Must Defend Reasoning
I have recently published a book titled, Up in the Air: Christianity, Atheism & the Global Problems of the 21st Century. The world is increasingly divided and our problems are far from resolved. In this book, I attempt to show how we can understand each other in the best possible way.
Book Synopsis
Up in the Air is about how two large ideological opponents, Christians and atheists, will have to battle out some of what are the biggest problems of this century from the “Age of Unreason” to moral ambivalence, to human rights violations, factory-farming and man-made climate change, to nuclear war, and nihilism. In today’s discourse about everyday moral and political issues, from abortion to animal rights or the legalization of gay marriage, we tend to jump to conclusions instead of fully understanding what the “opposition” is saying.
In this blog post, I address the “Age of Unreason” and the Christian capability to tackle it, or not.
