Episode Details

When God is declared dead, man doesn’t survive long either. In Chalcedon Position Paper No. 195: “The Death of God and the Death of Man,” R.J. Rushdoony traces the philosophical chain reaction—from rejecting God’s law to embracing chaos. From the Marquis de Sade to Nietzsche to modern human rights theories, Rushdoony shows how each step away from God results in the unraveling of meaning, morality, and man himself. Without God’s sovereign grace and law, all we’re left with is brute factuality and bloodshed. Tune in for a sobering yet hope-filled reminder that only Biblical faith can stop the death spiral—and restore life.
