A deep disfigurement, a vortex of violence, is eroding at the soul of our culture. Tragedies and atrocities are common fare. Evil is at center stage. In this insightful book, author Ravi Zacharias forcefully issues a grave warning to those nations "so imbued with strength, so splendidly attractive, so rich in resources"--And so blind to the source of evil dwelling in their midst. Zacharias writes that despite the wealth, advancements, and intelligence of our Western culture, we are "living with great philosophical risk, not pausing to uncover, even for a moment, the ramifications for the soul." With clarity and insight, Zacharias shows how many of today's most popular ideas, seemingly innocent thoughts and beliefs, are vandalizing our culture. With inspiring persuasion and unshakable certainty he shows why "neutrality on these issues is impossible" and why "even the so-called nonsecular and religiously dominated cultures of the world had better pay heed to the truths" he uncovers. Here you will find the common ground of what threatens all of us. And from that common ground the answers will become clear and inescapable. - Jacket.
