by Justin Ariel Bailey
…peal” alongside “how appalling idolatry is” (88-90).   Strange’s book is a compelling example of what is known as “cultural apologetics”: apologetic approaches that concentrate on giving Christian interpretations of culture rather than making logical proofs, which find their precedent in thinkers like Augustine, Pascal, and Schaeffer. While not replacing more analytic accounts (which defend the truth of Christianity), cultural apologetics remind u…

Moreover, many ideas which began as pieces of pure mathematics turn ou…
