People often talk about worldview when describing the philosophy
that guides their lives. But how have we come by our worldviews,
and what impact did Christianity have on those that are common to
Western civilization?This authoritative, accessible survey traces
the development of the worldviews that underpin the Western world.
It demonstrates the decisive impact that the growth of Christianity
had in transforming the outlook of pagan Roman culture into one
that, based on biblical concepts of humanity and its relationship
with God, established virtually all the positive aspects of Western
civilization.The two-pronged assault in our time on the biblically
based worldview by postmodern philosophy and the writings of
neo-atheists has made it even more crucial that we acknowledge and
defend its historical roots.Unique among books on the topic, this
work discusses Western worldviews as a continuous narrative rather
than as simply a catalogue of ideas, and traces the effects changes
in worldview had on society. It helps readers understand their own
worldviews and those of other people and helps them recognize the
consequences that worldviews hold. Professors, students, and
armchair historians alike will profit from this book.
