Modern society and modern education have become hopelessly entangled in reductionism, the idea that the world can be reduced to a series of influences or forces, or ultimately a chain of quantum interactions. This firstly, does not fit the reality we live in, and secondly, discards something even more important than logic: idealism. As I went through my studies at Harvard, I encountered reductionism, in which atheism and methodological naturalism invariably result, at every turn. I eventually rejected it in all its forms, along with its underlying assumptions, and I would invite you to do the same. We need God – not only to be rational, but to be human.
