Hardly read enough of it to know the gist, but I think it’s interesting to learn about this topic (how the Bible created the soul of western civilization) from the perspective of someone who grew up in India.

Good stuff. It makes sense that urbanization and the Industrial Revolution caused fathers to leave their family for a job in the city and that created issues. Between that and the sexual revolution I could see how that could cause a decline in Christianity and the family. Less God = less family. Less family = less God.
