Faith and Action: The Collected Articles of R. J. Rushdoony, 1965-2004

In Suicidal Humanism, Rushdoony exposes the deadly illusion behind modern humanism: the belief that eliminating God, guilt, and divine law through technology, psychology, and the socialist state will usher in a perfect world. Drawing on figures like Bertrand Russell and Freud, he shows how humanism seeks to medicalize sin, erase religion, and enthrone man as his own god, only to produce despair, lawlessness, and self-destruction instead of peace. Far from solving humanity’s problems, technological power intensifies them, because the core issue is not systems or science but sinful man himself. The tragic rise in suicide, violence, and moral collapse—especially among youth—reveals humanism’s suicidal end, while the biblical alternative calls men back to God’s law as the true foundation for order, blessing, and hope, affirming that rejecting God is ultimately a love of death, but obedience to His Word brings life. #SuicidalHumanism #Rushdoony #ChristianWorldview #BiblicalLaw #Humanism #FaithAndCulture #GodsLaw #MeaningAndHope

In Everyday Romanticism, Rushdoony warns that popular Romanticism, far from being harmless sentiment, is a destructive mindset that replaces God’s reality with self-created dreams and demands instant fulfillment without responsibility, patience, or discipline. Whether expressed in distorted expectations of love, career, or revolution, Romanticism insists on life “on my terms,” erupting into rage, despair, or victimization when reality intrudes. Rushdoony shows how this temperament fuels broken marriages, personal failure, and even political terror by seeking regeneration through emotion or revolution rather than through God’s transforming grace. Only a biblical faith, he concludes, can shatter Romantic illusions, restore humility, and teach men and women to live faithfully, fruitfully, and responsibly within God’s real world. #EverydayRomanticism #Rushdoony #ChristianWorldview #FaithAndCulture #Romanticism #BiblicalWisdom #Discipleship
