A merely symbolic religion does not threaten the ruling regime of materialistic science.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
The most consistent versions of materialism deny the reality of anything beyond matter - no soul, no spirit, no will, no mind. This is called reductionism: Humans are reduced to biochemical machines.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
Because a human is a someone and not a something, the source of human life must also be a Someone - not the blind, automatic forces of nature, as philosophies like naturalism and materialism tell us.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
Indigenous people have discovered that Christianity is not inherently Western but universal - 'translatable' into any cultural idiom.

Image
The sense of all stylistic change is that the underlying view of the world changes.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
A worldview is not the same things a formal philosophy, otherwise it would only be for philosophers. Even ordinary people have a set of convictions about how reality functions and how they should live. Some convictions are conscious while others are unconscious but together they form a consistent picture of reality.

Image
An idol is anything put in the place of God as the ultimate reality - the eternal, self-existent, uncaused cause of everything else.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
To adapt a phrase, idols have consequences.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
America faces a fundamental choice: either the blessings of liberty or the servitude of liberalism. In the political struggle for survival, one or the other is headed for extinction.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
The Tea Party has imparted political energy to common-sense American constitutionalism.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
Knowing the truth has meaning only as a first step to living the truth day by day.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
In many churches, the message of justification- how to get right with God- is preached over and over again. But much less is said about sanctification- how to live after you're converted.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
In many cases students are never exposed to competing ideas within their families, churches, or Christian schools, and as a result they go out into the world unprepared for the intellectual battles they are about to encounter, especially on secular college campuses.
Nancy Pearcey
Image
Schools ought to teach students to challenge secular ideologies masquerading as science in the classroom.

Many people operate as though the definition of faith were, Don't ask questions, just believe. They quote Jesus himself, who taught his followers to have the faith of a child (Mark 10:15). But I once heard Francis Schaeffer respond by saying, Don't you realize how many questions children ask?
