Oh for the days of old...
I wish we still lived in a time when people understood the importance of a culture's theological reasoning for everything.
When we understood the basic worldview of every culture, we had an easy time dealing with them. As evolution and humanism crept into America, we started looking at people as merely at different stages of social evolution, and we deal accordingly. It doesn't work.
Doug Phillips recently posted a short video about a time when we DID consider theological differences first, and the results were much different.

I found it fascinating and thought provoking, and I hope you'll do the same.
God Bless!
