Americans have been grappling with issues related to race and social inequities for generations. In the past few decades, a new approach to analyzing and approaching these issues has developed called Critical Theory. This new theory has gained a special prominence in the last several years.
On this episode of Filter Conversations, we had Dr. Doug Groothuis join us to discuss the worldview of critical theory and its incompatibility with both Christianity and the American system. This conversation was centered around his new article “America, Critical Theory, and Social Crisis.” Dr. Groothuis explains to us the origins of Critical Theory, how it spread in the United States, and how this theory is destructive to American society.
Dr. Groothuis is professor of philosophy at Denver Seminary and the author of several books. He is currently working on the second edition of his magnum opus book Christian Apologetics. Dr. Groothuis is also the author of several other volumes including Philosophy in Seven Sentences, Truth Decay, and Unmasking the New Age. He is also a frequent contributor to both scholarly and popular publications.
