Episode 169
Famous atheist Richard Dawkins set the internet ablaze for a moment when he lamented Britain's celebration of Ramadan over Easter, called himself a cultural christian, and warned that the loss of the Christian culture in Britain would be a dreadful thing. It is indisputable that the West was largely built on Christian values and ethos, and the resulting culture has been a tree of blessing for all living under its branches, regardless of their personal faith and conviction. Where it has been found lacking, great strides have been made to lift the downtrodden. Can you have Christian culture without Christians? Dawkins has said these things before, but the question remains: is there any such thing as a cultural Christian? What does that even mean? In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we react to Dawkins' interview with LBC, evaluate his assertions according to the Bible, and point out the dangerous results that can come from thinking that culture is in any way disconnected from faith.
