Athens Needs Jerusalem—and America Needs Both

Western Civilization is reeling. The fusion of Judaean ethics (Jerusalem) and Greco-Roman  governance (Athens) that sprang to life in Christianity is under attack. From one side, utopians have deployed an entirely new metaphysics that mocks traditional faith, inverts Biblical morality, and pushes toward a successor civilization. From the other, religious supremacists assert that their monopoly on theological correctness buys them not only favor in the Kingdom of God, but also favored legal status and a unique right to rule here in the realm of man.
