You are right on. God is there and he is not silent. He has revealed himself to us propositionally, but not exhaustively. I love Francis Schaeffer too.

Francis Schaeffer

Yes, God bless him and his knickerbockers.
(But you may know me by now... although I started at least one of his books, Christian Manifesto, I haven't finished any. Saw most of the How Should We Then Live films more than 20 years ago, so I'm glad for articles that summarize --and discussion.)

Cicero tells me there was an RC theologian/philosopher/historian in Switzerland at the same time, who from what I see, dealt with many of the same issues in many of the same ways: Hans Urs von Balthasar. I wonder if they met.

I've read a-lot more of the other patron saint of "evangelorthodox" Christian thought of the 20th C., Lewis, but I need to get caught up with Abolition of Man which betty boop mentioned a few days ago.
