Welcome to the Eric Mataxas Show.

You know they say it's a thin line between love and hate, but we're working every day

to thicken that line, for at least making a double even triple line.

Now here's your line jumping host, Eric Mataxas.

I don't know what that means, but I approved that message.

Folks, it's the Eric Mataxas Show and every now and again we get to go deep.

Today is not one of those days.

We're going to keep it on the surface.

I have a scholar here, Daniel Mahoney.

He's written actually, this is deep.

Albin the producer said we're going to keep a shallow, but this is as deep as we go.

This is a book called the Idol of Our Age, how the religion of humanity subverts Christianity.

First of all, Daniel Mahoney, welcome to the program.

Thank you very much.

Great pleasure to be here.

I feel free to be as deep or shallow as you feel inclined.

I know that you've done all kinds of writing, but you're a scholar.

You write some heavy books, and this is a big idea.

This is a very big idea.

The book comes festooned with Enchomia from people like Rusty Reno, the editor of First

Things, Roger Scruton, Holy Cow, Mary and Glendon.

This is a serious book.
