Rousas J. Rushdoony (1916 – 2001) zeigt – bisweilen provokativ – die Auswirkungen eines bestimmten Weltbildes auf einen bestimmten Lebensbereich auf:
Communism is one version of environmentalism – the notion hat a man’s character is made for him and not by him. Improve his material circumstances and you change man for the better. Education, under this dispensation, is the sum total of efforts to adapt man to his surroundings.
Dieses Weltbild stellt er dann dem christlichen gegenüber – und erkennt einen Reduktionismus:
No Christian can accept so narrow a definition of environment; his natural habitat is the universe of time and space, but he is also environed by another dimension, eternity.
Aus: J. R. Rushdoony. Intellectual Schizophrenia. Culture, Crisis and Education. Ross House: Vallecito 2002.
