Can Man Live Without God - Chapter 1

(Originally Written September 12, 2005 in Book 1)

Can Man Live Without God?
Ravi Zacharias
1994

In this book Zacharias deals with antitheism, what gives life meaning, and who Jesus is.

Chapter 1 - Anguish in affluence

Philosophy takes place on three tiers

Level One: Foundational level of theory. Great philosophical debate and dealing with clear epistemological bias. This level involves rigorous application of the laws of logic. THere is no room for feeling, culture or emotion at this level.

Level Two: This level deals with that which is done through the arts.

Level Three: This level deals with that which is had at a kitchen table.

Level three is where most of humanity lives and operates. In order for a philosophical theory to be understood it must be debated and conversed at level three so that all humanity can understand.
