For nearly two millennia, Christianity has been the foundation of Western civilization, shaping its laws, moral values, and institutions. However, as secularism and radical liberalism have aggressively pushed Christianity aside, the West has entered a period of moral decay, cultural disintegration, and existential crisis. The attempt to replace Christianity with reason and humanism has led to unprecedented problems—crime, social division, loss of purpose, and the erosion of freedoms.
Worse still, this vacuum has not remained empty. It has been filled by destructive ideologies like radical Islamism and Marxism, both of which have gained ground due to the West’s moral weakness. Europe, once a beacon of Christian civilization, has become the primary producer of homegrown radical Islamist terrorists, fueled by failed multicultural policies and the rejection of Christian moral order. Innovation has stalled, bureaucracy has exploded, and crime has soared—problems unseen for centuries. The only way forward is a return to Christianity, which alone provides meaning, purpose, and the moral foundation necessary for a flourishing civilization.
1. The Collapse of Moral Order: Secularism and Radical Liberalism
As the West abandoned Christianity, it embraced moral relativism, leading to confusion about even the most basic human realities—family, identity, and morality. Radical liberalism, under the guise of “progress,” has eroded traditional values, replaced virtue with entitlement, and promoted destructive ideologies that weaken social cohesion. Without Christianity, the West has lost its moral compass, allowing chaos to reign.
2. The Rise of Radical Islamism and Marxist Ideology
Secularism and radical liberalism have unintentionally aided the rise of two dangerous forces: Islamism and Marxism. Without a strong Christian identity, the West has been unable to defend itself against aggressive ideologies seeking to dismantle it.
- Islamism has gained a foothold in Europe, where weak secular societies, desperate to avoid “offense,” have allowed parallel legal systems, radical mosques, and no-go zones. Europe, once the heart of Christian civilization, now produces homegrown jihadists because its people lack a strong, unifying belief system to resist extremism.
- Marxism has infiltrated Western institutions, promoting class warfare, cancel culture, and an anti-Christian worldview that seeks to destroy the very foundation of the civilization that gave it prosperity.
3. The Failure of Secular Humanism: Lost Innovation and Rising Regulation
The Enlightenment sought to replace Christianity with reason, but reason alone has proven insufficient. Instead of a flourishing society, secularism has led to stagnation.
- Innovation has declined, as society prioritizes bureaucracy and regulation over vision and creativity. Christian societies built the greatest universities, scientific advancements, and economic models, yet today, excessive state control and ideological censorship have crushed intellectual freedom.
- Crime has skyrocketed, as moral relativism weakens law enforcement, encourages lawlessness, and excuses destructive behavior. Without Christianity’s moral framework, justice becomes arbitrary and corrupted by ideology.
4. Christianity: The Only Path to Meaning, Purpose, and Civilization’s Survival
Christianity is not just a religious belief—it is the foundation of Western civilization. It provides the only lasting source of purpose, moral order, and unity needed to rebuild society.
- Christianity restores meaning by giving people a purpose beyond materialism and selfish desires. Without it, people turn to dangerous ideologies or fall into nihilism and despair.
- Christianity unites people across social and cultural divides, unlike radical liberalism, which thrives on division and victimhood.
- Christianity fosters true freedom, limiting government overreach and protecting individuals from oppressive ideologies like Marxism and Islamism.
The Great Discovery: Finding Purpose in Christianity
The West’s greatest discovery was not scientific or economic—it was the discovery of purpose through Christianity. The path forward is not more secularism, radical liberalism, or empty ideologies. The only way to restore the West and save civilization from collapse is a return to Christianity—the faith that built the greatest civilizations in history and can do so once again.
