A Conversation with Ross Douthat on Christian Cul-de-sacs, Decadence, and Competing Cosmologies

The General Eclectic

Kale discusses a recent Substack in which Ross articulates the dilemmas facing Christian's in light of our current cultural exhaustions, what Ross works out in more detail with his latest book The Decadent Society. Rod joins Kale to continue the conversation and they talk about post-Obergfell, the Integralist response, and pessimism regarding where we stand.
