Secular humanist Paul Kurtz vs. the Christian Francis Schaeffer - Schaeffer wins hands down in the legacy department

The late Paul Kurtz is considered to be the "father of secular humanism" (a form of atheism). The late Francis Schaeffer was a Christian apologists who argued that Christendom had to do more to confront secular humanism, advance Christianity in the public square and he also argued against theological modernism.  Schaeffer was the author of the book A Christian Manifesto which a number of Christian and conservative political public figures say had a big influence on them.

The current web traffic on the Paul Kurtz website is so low that Alexa does not give it a ranking and lists its ranking as "no data" (See: Alexa - Paul Kurtz).  On the other hand, Francis Schaeffer has a number of websites dedicated to honoring his legacy and they all have rankings listed by Alexa. 

See:


Previously, we published articles on how Paul Kurtz left no significant legacy:

Paul Kurtz, the father of secular humanism, is another atheist failure without a legacy

The National Secular Society says that aggressive French religious lobbies are in a sustained attack on French secularism

The calls to end secularism in France, Europe and other places  is going to accelerate and not diminish. Secularism is an unsustainable sand castle that is going to face bigger and bigger waves of religious conservatism. Please see: The rise of religious conservatism and the decline of secularism

Secularism: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

Herein is a lecture entitled, "Secularism: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back" which deals with secularism's (and atheism in general) encroachment upon culture.

It considers the media, education, etc. Including a discussion of how atheism is not smuggled into the science classroom via the backdoor but brought right in the front doors within the worldview from which the classes are taught and also within the text books.
