“There are signs that Christianity is starting to have a kind of re-awakening of its own amongst intellectuals.
There are a surprising number of people in main stream media who are now openly saying good things about Christianity in a way that you never saw in the 1980s and 1990s……
My theory is, Steve, is that we are coming out of an adolescence.I look upon the 20th Century as a time when Science had provided all kinds of body blows to Religon and like adolescence who say their parent’s are wrong about everything, I think that Intellectuals started saying that traditional Religon had, was entirely wrong.
Our Intellectual parents had been wrong about everything and we rejected it.
And the nice thing about adolescence is that you grow out of it eventually”…

“Oh no, great Art is not suppose to express Truth, Beauty, and the Good, it is suppose to challenge the audience. And Artists should not be concerned about those false, delusory ideals, we should express our personal preferences”…
and their personal preferences turned out to be nihilistic and banal and often times, very silly”…

“The old secular liberalism that aimed to keep faith out of politics is long dead.On the other hand, those who want to keep politics out of the church will find it hard to do so when they open their doors to provide food and support; they cannot ignore the structural causes of the poverty, loneliness, and mental health problems they encounter.By embracing modern progressive Christian socialism, Labour can take a steal on the right and ensure that the Trumpian flavour of Christian social conservatism does not take root here”…
