Johnson pries the lid off public debate about questions of ultimate concern--questions often suppressed by our society's intellectual elite. Moving far beyond matters of creation and evolution, Johnson outlines the questions we all ought to be asking about the meaning of human history, the limits of scientific inquiry, religion and education in a pluralistic society, truth, liberty and moral choices, and God and His Word, Jesus Christ. Johnson deftly demonstrates how the reigning naturalistic philosophy not only squelches public debate but also constrains us to ask the wrong questions. Unless we start with the right questions, Johnson argues, our discussions will be framed by the assumptions of that very philosophy which must be challenged. Johnson asserts that even the Christian church has much too often passively accepted this limiting frame of mind to the detriment of all. But Christian faith and conviction instead ought to lead in opening up the search for truth and meaning through the kind of public education that \"teaches in controversy.\" Then all of us will be prepared to engage in lively, informed and civil debate about the questions that really matter. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy is it always wrong to mix science and religion?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is the ultimate premise, the beginning point, from which logic should proceed?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow can a college education prepare students to understand the ultimate purpose or meaning for which life should be lived and to choose rightly from among the available possibilities?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is the appropriate understanding of religion in a pluralistic nation where substantial numbers of Christians, agnostics, Jews and Muslims all need to live together in peace?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow can democratic liberalism remain viable when severed from its Christian roots?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is the most important event in human history?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e Provocative, personal, persuasive and prophetic, Johnson is certain to help us break free from our intellectual and spiritual captivity.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 194\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 8.38 x 5.58 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 07, 2004\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42607538241632,"sku":"9780830832132","price":43.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/QWdRMnV3SjJBT0Y5eGt1OUF1UGUvQT09.webp?v=1771876499","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/the-right-questions-truth-meaning-public-debate-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
