"Faith, Reason and the War Against Jihadism" from Ignatius Press - 2007 - Fall
"Faith, Reason and the War Against Jihadism" from Ignatius Press - 2007 - Fall: "�History must be made to march in the direction of genuine human progress; world affairs have no intrinsic momentum that necessarily results in the victory of decency. Maintaining the morale necessary to achieving progress in history requires us to live our lives, today, against a moral horizon of responsibility that is wider and deeper than the quest for personal satisfactions. The future of our civilization does not rest merely on the advance of material wealth and technological prowess; the future of the West turns on the question of whether our spiritual aspirations are noble or base.� , �from Faith, Reason, and the War Against Jihadism"

Great article about the "Intolerance of Tolerance"

It's funny how we often really do become the thing we hate: liberalism recognizes only the authority of the state. Indeed, it defends it irrationally, as we all must believe in something greater than ourselves.
Just ask those living under Stalin or Hitler just how "tolerant" these social engineering catastrophes were. As we all know, dissent was honored and considered part of the normal fabric of society.

Great article about the death of spirituality in modern times. Peter Kreeft is one of my favorite authors.
