The False Dilemma of Worldly Philosophies

Apologetics, Christianity, college, Culture, Gospel, https://drowenanderson.com/, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Marxism, myth of neutrality, Owen Anderson, Politics, Worldview
“We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:5 One of my goals as a Christian and as a tenured full professor of philosophy and religion at our nation’s largest research university (ASU) is to help Christian parents and students understand what to expect if they attend classes teaching radical ideologies—DEI, LGBTQ+, Antifa, decolonization, anti-settler, anti-white, and anti-heteronormativity theories. Christians know that such universities would never permit a Christian to use class time for evangelism. The radical Marxist professor seems to think that the First Amendment guarantees them a job as a professor, but it doesn’t guarantee them that anyone will attend their classes or programs. So how did we get here, and what can…

A Case Against Theocracy in 20 Points

1st Amendment, Apologetics, Charlie Kirk, Christianity, church and state, Gospel, John Ferrer, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Politics, Religious Freedom, Theocracy
If you watched the Memorial Service for Charlie Kirk, and reports indicate about a third of America did just that, then you saw a lot of people singing songs to God, Christians sermonizing, and political figures politicizing. Church and State were both on full display. This wasn’t a funeral, mind you. Nor was it a church service or a political rally. It was kind of all three, which made it a unique event in recent history. Some of the speakers shared the Gospel, giving an invitation for salvation, and calling people to follow-Christ with everything they’ve got, for their own sake, the sake of their families, and the sake of the country. There were some excellent Christian messages showing a principled Christian engagement in the political sphere in way that…

Thank You Charlie for Mixing Faith and Politics with Alisa Childers & Natasha Crain

Alisa Childers, Charlie Kirk Memorial, Christian Apologetics, Christian Nationalism, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, faith, morality, Natasha Crain, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, religion, theology
Was Charlie Kirk’s memorial service a “dangerous display of Christian Nationalism” like some media outlets claim? While Frank is on his college tour in honor of Charlie, our friends Alisa Childers and Natasha Crain step in to host the program and break down the false narratives taking place on social media and discuss how Christians can respond when accused of being “too political.” Along the way, they tackle big questions like: How has Charlie Kirk’s death impacted Alisa and Natasha on a personal and professional level? What does it mean to be called a “Christian Nationalist”? Is the United States headed toward a revival, or deeper division? Should Christians stay out of politics? Was Charlie Kirk killed for his political or Christian beliefs? What is a critical mistake many Christians…

Class Guide: How to Avoid Filth

Apologetics, Christianity, college, Gospel, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Owen Anderson, Owen Anderson.substack.com, Politics
As students around the country get ready to go back to school, our universities are eagerly awaiting their next round of freshmen. If you’re a parent or student, you will need to know how to find classes that help you become wise and lead a virtuous life. As a professor, I can provide you with some ideas. First, go to your university’s course schedule and see what is offered. If a class interests you, check out its syllabus. If the professor will not make their syllabus public, that is a bad sign. You can email and request it. What you want to see is the reading list and the kinds of lecture materials that are used. That will tell you if there is bias. For example, take a look at…

Secular Professor Tactics 101

academia, Apologetics, Christian Living, Christianity, college life, Deconstruction, DrOwenAnderson.substack.com, Gospel, indoctrination, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Owen Anderson, Politics, Progressivism, Worldview, youth exodus
As a parent or student it will help you to know that in many cases your secular professors have a strategy. They have a goal. A strategy is the big-picture plan to win or achieve that goal. Tactics are the step-by-step methods used to carry it out. I’ve told you before that you can see their goal by how they live their own lives. But now let’s look at their classroom tactics. If you’re a parent or a prospective student, you need to understand the tactics of the secular professor. For many of them, “winning” means leading students to adopt a radical leftist ideology—either by outright agreement or by slow, subtle influence. Agreement isn’t always demanded immediately. Sometimes, all they want is your gradual surrender of confidence in anything else. …

When Is Love Evil?

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, evil, government, J.D. Vance, Love, morality, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, religion, theology
What ONE insight will either make or break your life as a Christian, or even as a non-Christian? If followed, it will help your marriage, parenting, business, job, friendships, politics, and most importantly, your eternity and your relationship with Jesus. Spurred by recent political and cultural events surrounding President Trump’s first 100 days in office and comments made by Vice President J.D. Vance during a recent interview about protecting the interest of American citizens, Frank reminds listeners of the doctrine of “Ordered Loves”. Originally articulated by Augustine over 1,600 years ago, this classic school of thought seems to be totally lost among our culture today. Tune in as Frank answers questions like: What is the Doctrine of “Ordered Loves”, why is it so important, and how does it affect every…

A Disturbing Trend

1. Does Truth Exist?, Apologetics, Christianity, critical theory, Domestic Terrorism, Gospel, Left Wing, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Politics, relativism, Right Wing, Social Constructivism, truth, violence
A disturbing trend is rising. People are calling for Trump’s assass1nation.[1] Political discourse has shifted from divisive and shrill, to radical and violent. Meanwhile, there have been four confirmed attempts on the president’s life, one of them missed by mere inches. This is getting out of hand. Ironically, the same people calling for violence against the elected president think they’re fighting for democracy. Apparently, people can avoid the courts, evade elections, derail due process, and bypass all the checks and balances of this constitutional democratic republic, and somehow they’re still “pro-democracy.” How does that work? “The same people calling for violence against the elected president think they’re fighting for democracy” Firebombing Car Dealers . . . Bad. Now I don’t think Donald Trump is the best or the worst. He’s…

Is Trump an Unconstitutional Dictator? What About Corruption?

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, corruption, Dictator, Dr. Frank Turek, Elon Musk, John Ferrer, Jorge Gil, morality, philosophy, Podcast, Politics, religion, theology, Trump
Ladies and gentlemen, we are witnessing something unprecedented in American history! This week, we’ll explore how President Donald Trump is using the “shock and awe” strategy to shake up the political landscape – and more importantly, how Christians should navigate this new era without becoming complacent or too comfortable with the changing leadership. With the recent transfer of political power, how has the current administration managed to accomplish so much in such a short time? And are these rapid changes more beneficial or more detrimental to the American people? Jorge Gil and John Ferrer temporarily take over the ‘I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist’ podcast to examine Trump’s bold political moves from a nuanced, biblical perspective, tackling key questions such as: What is the “shock and awe”…
