Can American Democracy Survive the New Atheism?

Posted on February 25, 2017 by John Gravino

Here is my latest video discussion from the New Walden Book Club. It is probably my last episode on the Eric Metaxas book If You Can Keep It. The focus of this episode is Eric’s discussion of the “golden triangle of freedom.” The implications of this golden triangle are important and controversial. If there is any truth in this triangle, then the New Atheism poses an existential threat to our democracy. And not only the New Atheism. Hollywood and the secular left pose the same danger. The video explains it all.

Update

Eric Metaxas likes the video!

There's nothing more gratifying than when people intelligently respond to one's writing! Thank you @John_Gravino! https://t.co/cvgjaxewTA

Eric Metaxas Will Be in Town Tomorrow Night, November 2nd

Posted on November 1, 2016 by John Gravino

Eric, no doubt, will be here to talk about his new book, If You Can Keep It, and to talk about the election. These have been two of his favorite subjects of late, and he has taken a lot of heat for his forthright political opinions: He thinks that Christians and conservatives are wrong not to vote for Trump; he said so in a Wall St. Journal article, and for that, he has been harshly criticized by people who normally count him an ally.

You may remember that I did a couple of YouTube video discussions of his new book. It’s a book that merits our attention—more attention than it has received. If you have the opportunity, I recommend coming out to hear what Eric has to say. Information about the event is on the events calendar below. JG
