Escape from Reason

Man is dead. God is dead. Life has become meaningless existence, man a cog in a machine. The only way of escape lies in a non-rational fantasy world of experience, drugs, absurdity, pornography, an elusive ‘final experience’ madness...And so twentieth-century man escapes from the world in which reason has failed, to the non-rational world which alone offers hope. Francis Schaeffer traces the root of this despair back to the Renaissance. And he demonstrates that the truths of historic Christianity still speak to these contemporary dilemmas.
