Culture Lite II—Religious Indifferentism and the Loss of Meaning in Life | 24:2
In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss “Postmodernism,” Religious Indifferentism, and the Loss of Meaning in Life.
The greatest tragedy of the modern world is the loss of faith, not only in God, but also in truth itself, and our ability to know it by any means, whether by reason or faith.
Allan Bloom, in The Closing of the American Mind, writes:
“…The most important and most astonishing phenomenon of our time, all the more astonishing in being almost unnoticed: there is now an entirely new language of good and evil, originating in an attempt to get ‘beyond good and evil’ and preventing us from talking with any conviction about good and evil anymore…. The new language is that of value relativism, and it constitutes a change in our view of things moral and political as great as the one that took place when Christianity replaced Greek and Roman paganism.”
