The Power of the Cultural Vacuum

Sharing Options

“What is now in place is not exactly an alternative system of belief. What is in place is no system of belief at all. It is more like a vacuum into the quiet emptiness of which the self is reaching for meaning – and finding only itself. But this is to put the matter more passively than is warranted. Vacuums may be empty, but they are highly destructive.” [David Wells, No Place for Truth (Grand Rapids, MI: Eerdmans, 1993), p. 169.]
