How Faith and Reason Can Win the Culture War
Unlikely alliances are forming across America as Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox Jews, classic liberals, and traditional conservatives are all troubled by a spreading political ideology that has abandoned reason, the author of a new book on the subject says.\nAmericans are seeing a contingent on the Left that \u201chas gone completely mad,\u201d says Jay Richards, co-author of \u201cFight the Good Fight: How an Alliance of Faith and Reason Can Win the Culture War.\u201d\xa0\n\u201cWe're not dealing with a kind of Walter Mondale-John F. Kennedy liberalism of the 1960s,\u201d he explains. \u201cWe're dealing with a radical postmodernism, and we call this 'woke ideology' because we don't have a word for it, but it really is radical, and it's all about basically destabilizing the current order.\u201d\nIssues such as diversity, equity, and inclusion curriculums in schools and gender-identity ideology have \u201cawakened\u201d Americans across political and faith divides, says Richards, who also\xa0serves as director of the DeVos Center for Life, Religion, and Family at The Heritage Foundation. (Heritage founded The Daily Signal in 2014.)\nRichards joins \u201cThe Daily Signal Podcast\u201d to discuss the unique alliances the radical Left\u2019s agenda has unintentionally created and to explain how faith and reason can work together to win the culture war.\xa0\nEnjoy the show!\n Hosted on Acast.
