- Abstract
Bringing faith to culture, through communication, is a Christian imperative. Because of the radical shift in the cultural parameters of the present with respect to previous centuries, the effectiveness of this task depends on a clear understanding of trends and ideologies which prevail in the world today. Indeed, the only way to act is with a clear understanding that the currents that dominate present thinking are moving, now more than ever, away from the two millennia of Christian history, even away from any religion that is not based on the expectation of worldly well being. This is the case with the current residue of Marxist ideology and with recipes for psychic tranquility, as exemplified by the religious revival of consumerist Orientalism and the New Age.
