This is right from the lips of the Divine Couple to our ears--if we would but listen: the Good Couple admire, enjoy, and encourage human culture to be widened and deepened by the presence of capitalism, materialism, physicalism, scientism, worldliness and secularism.
Now the mainstay of a reformed earthly culture would be one where holiness, otherworldliness, immaterialism, faith, prayer, and miracles are very prominent in the lives of the people.
Evil is fanaticism, totalism, one-dimensionality. There can be where there is too much emphasis on religion--say in a theocracy.
Dennis Prager is really down on secularism now, but I have to disagree with this fine man, a bit. We need secularism and worldliness to keep our faith healthy and multifaceted.
