In recent years, there has been a concerted attack on many of the precepts of Western civilization relating to the concept of God, truth, Christianity, morality, sex, the family, and even modern science, especially biology. The concern of this volume is to explore these and other attacks through the tools of philosophy, theology, science, and intuition. It seeks to bring clarity to the ongoing struggle of Western civilization to preserve its values and traditions.
The West is crumbling at an accelerated rate. The unfolding erasure of history, objective morality, and truth has paved the way for our current predicament. We are now standing at the precipice of the future of human civilization. The attacks on the human person are unrelenting, malicious, multifaceted, and wide-ranging in their scope and breadth, from the time prior to birth until the moment of death. If you are granted the "right" to live, then you must be prepared for unending assaults on your, mind, body, and soul. Nevertheless, the spirit of man and the greatness of God are infinitely greater than any of these assaults. It is by making sense of nonsense that humanity will be able to navigate out of the West's current quagmire. For those who feel vaguely uneasy about the current direction of our culture andour politics, but can't put their finger on the problem, the fifty-five chapters of
this book are a wake-up call, and they bring into focus reasons for our current
malaise. The editor and principal author, Scott D. G. Ventureyra, is joined
by more than twenty others who explore perennial themes of philosophy and
theology enlivened by accounts of personal experience in the quest for the true
and the good amidst the drama of the decay of the West. Topics range from faith
and science to gender ideology to the attack on freedom and dignity of persons,
to COVID-19 and the New World Order. Pick this volume up for a lively
discussion of the distemper of our times, and for reflections on the prospects
for redemption.
-David J. Klassen, LL.B., Ph.D. The Western world is intent on defeating reality to vaunt utopian narratives. The
authors of this impressive work offer a necessary assessment of this "culture war,"
while also forging a path for a return to the essential and eternal truths of human
existence. A copy of this notable book should be on every shelf.
-Nirmal Dass, publisher, The Postil Magazine I knew something was deeply wrong with the world prior to 2020, but 2020
confirmed it. With the changes in views about sex, marriage, and the economy,
we are seeing a direct confrontation with traditional Western Christian values.
This continues to be confirmed for those who have eyes to see what politics,
medicine, science, and technology are doing to cultural consciousness led by
globalist elite groups (just read the Davos report for yourself!)... Making Sense of Nonsense
confronts many of the issues, motivations, and challenges that continue to
upset not only our economy and social interactions but our values. With an
honest look at the issues from a variety of perspectives, Making Sense of Nonsense
will furnish the reader with a host of issues backed by research that aid us in
thinking better about the problems in medicine, technology, economics, society
and how they are interwoven, so that we might be better equipped to engage
the new world staring us square in the face. The motivations are no longer
disguised attempts to deceive. At best the motivations are hidden in plain sight
for all to see. For those who have ears to hear, let him hear and see the nonsense
before us.
