More about the book
The book examines the shift in societal morals, highlighting how concepts like abortion and euthanasia have become normalized. It argues that this decline in traditional Christian values can be traced back to the ancient philosopher Epicurus, whose ethical theories influenced modern thought, particularly through Darwinism. The author, Ben Wiker, suggests that Darwinism provides a scientific veneer to ancient materialistic philosophies, which drive contemporary hedonism. This work challenges both proponents of Darwinism and Christians to confront the historical roots of today's moral crisis.
