This was presented by Voddie Baucham. I only have very sparse notes on this one.
This is a comparison in worldviews between Christianity and our culture (Humanism), in how we answer life's ultimate questions.
What's wrong with the world?
Humanism's answers: 1) Insufficient education: (anger management, harrassment, etc...) or 2) Insufficient governance: (we need more rules to control others and let them know what's wrong). There are currently more law students today than lawyers. Who is going to govern the governors?
Christianity's answer: sin (we are fallen and cursed by sin and evil in this world, only Jesus Christ is the answer.)
Who am I?
Humanism's answer: We are the product of millions of years of death and struggle and random chance, we are incomplete (in progress).
Christianity's answer: We are the crowning glory of the Creation of Jesus Christ, created in God's image.
Why do we exist?
Humanism's answer: to onsume and enjoy, (reflected by "I want to give my kids more than I had")
Christianity's answer: to glofiy God, the Creator.
