Americans Think the World Is Way Worse Than It Actually Is

Last updated on: July 17, 2017 at 11:01 am By G. Shane Morris

For the most part, Americans form their political opinions without the slightest reference to reality. Our perceptions of the objective state of our country and world are wildly divorced from the facts. Read more

A Reply to Rod Dreher on Worldview

Last updated on: June 27, 2017 at 10:02 am By G. Shane Morris

Writing at The American Conservative, Rod Dreher raises some concerns with evangelical use of the concept of “Christian worldview.” Working as I do at a Christian worldview ministry, and having recently met Rod at the Colson Center’s Wilberforce Weekend conference, I found the piece especially relevant. He makes a number of suggestions and statements with which I disagree, but two in particular stood out. First, Rod suspects that teaching students to break down the world in terms of “worldviews” creates a kind... Read more

Reza Aslan’s ‘Believer’ Was Everything Wrong with Religion Reporting

Last updated on: June 21, 2017 at 7:47 am By G. Shane Morris

Aslan uses trite syncretism as a mandate not to take the truth-claims of any one religion (including his own) “too seriously.” Read more

How Should We Understand the Left?

Last updated on: May 26, 2017 at 6:37 pm By G. Shane Morris

The progressive project is pure utopianism. You won’t understand anything or anyone on the left until you grasp this. The progressive worldview centers on the idea of inevitable moral evolution toward an ever-receding mirage of a perfect world where transcendent constraints are gone and human will reigns supreme. This is why appeals to tradition, history, revealed truth, biology, and even logic fall on deaf ears, because these are precisely the constraints we must overcome! This is why “it’s 2017!” is...

Read part 1 here. Following my recent post on the victim culture that’s grown up around Josh Harris’ twenty-year-old book, “I Kissed Dating Goodbye,” John Ehrett wrote a guest post at Evangelical Pulpit taking up my challenge to produce Harris’ most troubling passages. Initially, I didn’t intend to respond, but since we’ve struck up a cordial friendship on Facebook in the ensuing months, and since I’m devoting some time to revisiting this whole issue in greater depth, I want to...

Choosing Pets Over Kids Is A Psychiatric Disorder

Last updated on: May 10, 2017 at 10:46 am By G. Shane Morris

If you grew up with dogs (as I did), you know that something bizarre and sad often happens when a mother dog loses her puppies. With hormones and maternal instinct coursing through her, she will frequently adopt inanimate objects as “replacement-puppies.” Usually, she chooses something like a boot, hat, or stuffed toy. Mother cats do the same thing, typically with socks. Whatever the object, the animal will carry it around, lick it, attempt to suckle it, protect it, and otherwise... Read more
