This volume is an important contribution for those Christians who, with growing apprehension, watch the once-Christian West being taken over not merely by a general moral laxness or apathy to religion, but by a comprehensive and coherent religious worldview entirely contrary and hostile to the Christian faith. Present Western culture is not becoming more secular but rather more spiritual. It is adopting however, a spirituality in conflict with the faith of the Bible. The present state of the modern West is the result of careful and determined efforts by key figures of the past and present to bring about a pagan utopian revolution. In this volume, the authors seek to analyze the utopias proposed in our own day and our own culture. Christians must clearly understand our Twoist biblical worldview as over against this contemporary Oneism if we wish to train the next generation of Christians to understand the coherence and vast implications of the "new" pagan account of existence. The ethic of all utopias, apart from God's final "eu-topia," depends upon the elimination of the only dependable Law-Giver and thus the silencing of the first, all-defining statement of the Creed: "I believe in God the Father, Maker of heaven and earth." Those who see Evolution as the only reality and give Nature divine worship are Oneists, just as they were in ancient Israel: "those who say to a tree, 'You are my father,' and to a stone, 'you gave me birth.'"
