Posted on: Sep 07, 2022

Culture is the soul of a civilization and religion is the soul of a culture. Once a civilization loses its soul, it ceases to be a civilizing influence on its inhabitants. It becomes a soulless devourer of souls. The question facing “Western culture” today is whether or not it retains the humility to acknowledge the nature and depth of the crisis it now faces – and whether or not it has the resolve required to restore our civilization by recovering the Judeo-Christian foundations of our culture.
