Interesting how many secular psychologists and academics are coming to the conclusion this excellent message addresses, based on an ever-increasing amount of research data, that fatherlessness is becoming THE single biggest predictor of numerous social pathologies the world is becoming crippled by. Whether it be juvenile crime, narcotic addiction, teen pregnancies, the skyrocketing rates of depression and suicide in our youths, along with many other issues - fathernessness lays at the very foundation of all these growing problems. And if it's not seriously acknowledged and dealt with soon, the day will eventually come where it will be too late to deal with, and civilization as we know it will totally collapse. And that time may be closer than most realize.
Tremendous article, Becky! There is a HUGE difference between legitimate science and scientism, and it's a fine distinction very few people seem to make. Once at a three-day Intelligent Design seminar I attended back in 2004, I had the chance to have a great one-on-one conversation with J.P. Moreland, the guy you mentioned in the article. Very interesting fellow, and quite approachable on a personal level. I'd like to read his book on this topic.
