What is the Source of Our Culture of Euphemism and Political Correctness?

Last updated on: July 6, 2017 at 5:22 pm By Artur Rosman

The sources of euphemism and political correctness are too close to be seen. The Polish philosopher Leszek Kolakowski spent the better part of the 50’s and 60’s attempting to create a (Soviet Communist-) Socialism with a Human Face. Some of his more important attempts are collected in Toward a Marxist Humanism: Essays on the Left Today. The failure to square the circle was one of the things that forced Kolakowski into exile in the West. His success in documenting the failure of real-existing socialism in... Read more

Biblical Authority After Babel Cannot Be Built Upon Mere Protestant Christianity

Last updated on: May 9, 2017 at 10:17 am By Guest Contributor

I recently finished reading Kevin J. Vanhoozer’s, Biblical Authority after Babel: Retrieving the Solas in the Spirit of Mere Protestant Christianity.

Last updated on: May 4, 2017 at 9:47 pm By Artur Rosman

Today is something called “National Reason Day,” on the atheist calendar.
