I absolutely agree...Robert Bork in Slouching Toward Gomorrah touched on the the trouble in religion and the decline of intellect...these crank notions like post-modernism and so forth are laying waste to young minds in our institutions of "higher" education.

Postmodernism is the revolt against reason. Everything the Left promotes=the old logical fallacy of the appeal to emotion.

The ACLU can't ban Aristotle, Zeno, Plato or even Confucius, but their thought divorced from religion can provide us with a secular way back.
The early Fathers of the Church used classical philosophy to preach the faith, and Plato was considered almost a Greek prophet by some early Christians because he paved the way for the Gospel in the Hellenistic world.
