The Importance of Reorienting the West Back towards Faith
The podcast highlights the crucial cultural issue of reorienting the Western mind towards faith. The speaker believes that without rediscovering God with real faith, Western culture will devolve into the oppressive pagan practices of the past. Science initially led to the belief that matter was all there is, but recent scientific discoveries show a connection between matter and consciousness, resembling the first books of Genesis.
