A Quote I Borrowed From The Holy Whapping Site
"Christianity, and nothing
else is the ultimate foundation
of liberty, conscience,
human rights, and democracy...
We continue to nourish
ourselves from this source.
Everything else is
postmodern chatter."
- Jürgen Habermas
I thought Professor Habermas was part of the "postmodern chatter." But thank Heaven, Wikipedia once again saved me from utter and advanced ignorance. In fact as far as I can now tell, Habermas argued against Derrida fairly forcefully. In any event, this notion of Christianity as being foundational for many of our main ideas has been occupying my thoughts for some years now.

“In beholding old stones we may feel our anxieties about our achievements–and lack of them–slacken . . . Vast landscapes [and seascapes] can have an anxiety–reducing effect similar to ruins, for they are the representatives of infinite space, as ruins are the representatives of infinite time, against which our weak, short-lived bodies seem no less inconsequential than those of moths or spiders.”—Alain de Botton in Status Anxiety
