PDF-(BOOK)-Western Culture Today and Tomorrow: Addressing the Fundamental Issues

Well known for his important scholarly contributions to dogmatic theology and biblical commentary Joseph Ratzinger has also been an insightful shrewd analyst of political modernity and its discontents This work reveals Ratzingers keen insight into the fundamental challenges confronting the twentyfirstcentury WestThe civilizational project we call the West was a cultural achievement with a history Ratzinger understands that Jerusalem Athens and Rome were the three legs of the cultural stool on which the West rests From that under standing Ratzinger draws his analysis of the Wests post modern crisis Nineteenthcentury Western culture kicked the Jerusalem leg out from under the stool when its atheist humanists declared the God of the Bible the enemy of human maturation and liberationWhen we lose the Jerusalem leg of the Wests cultural support system the Athenian leg gets wobbly For absent the conviction that the God of the Bible imprinted something of his own rationality into a world created by the Logos the Word or reason of God reason begins to doubt its own ability to get at the truth of anythingThis assault on the capacity of reason to discern truth with certainty connects directly with what Ratzinger famously called the dictatorship of relativism the use of coercive state power to impose a relativistic moral order on all of societyIn response to this grave crisis today Ratzinger says we need to focus on answering such fundamental questions as How did western culture originate and what are its boundaries What about the spiritual roots of western culture and the moral foundation she is founded onThe witness of Christian lives nobly lived is the beginning of reconversion of the Westand that return to the truths taught by the God of the Bible is essential if the great Western civilizational project is not to crumble Joseph Ratzinger understood that danger long before many others It would be well to attend to his prescription George Weigel From the Foreword. int International Bureau Weltpoststrasse 4 PO Box 3000 BERNE 15 SWITZERLAND wwwupuint ISBN 9789295025431 ISSN 10206019 January 2010 brPage 2br brPage 3br brPage 4br brPage 5br brPage 6br 1.
