"Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people." Henry Thomas Buckle
On this site we will discuss politics, economics and culture through the lens of a Christian faith. We believe these things are the foundation of human flourishing. We hope to encourage deeper thought, discussion and understanding as we explore important ideas together.
“The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist.”
John Maynard Keynes
“We grow justly weary of our politics. But we must remember this: Politics – in all its grubby, grasping, corrupt, contemptible manifestations – is sovereign in human affairs. Everything ultimately rests upon it. Fairly or not, politics is the driver of history.”
Charles Krauthammer, "Things That Matter: Three Decades of Passions, Pastimes and Politics"
“If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning.”
C.S. Lewis, "Mere Christianity"
