The Costa Concordia Disaster on the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic - Whatever Happened to Women and Children First?
March 14, 2012
Tragedies like the Costa Concordia unveil the true nature of the modern male, and the fruits of egalitarian worldviews. The Captain abandoned ship, and the Italian crew shoved the pregnant women out of the way as they clambered into the lifeboats. So much for women and children first! Even the secular press was appalled at the behavior of these men. This was not the case with the Titanic. In fact, three men from the steerage who tried to make the Titanic lifeboats in front of women and children were shot! Coincidentally, they all three were Italian. On the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, Kevin Swanson interviews Douglas Phillips on the loss of chivalry and the collapse of civility. Vision Forum and the Christian Boys' and Men's Titanic Society are making preparations for the International Centennial Event in Branson, Missouri scheduled for April 13th and 14th. 2012 (the date the Titanic went down, 100 years earlier).

What may be said about the new ABC television program that mocks hypocritical, superficial Christianity? Nehemiah pulled his hair out (and that of others) over the weakness of the church in Jerusalem in his day. But Sanballat and Tobias were not helping either! The church is weak, but it doesn't help when a pro-fornication Hollywood mocks the church of Christ. Even while God was judging the Israelites for their disobedience, He was preparing Moab and Edom for their attacks on a weakened Israel. Kevin Swanson reports on the current demise of the Christian faith and the mocking of the pagans who stand on the sidelines.

Why do large segments of Tim Hawkins’s humor bear the wrong worldview, whereas Bryan Regan gets it right (especially with his UPS and Refrigerator pieces)? Kevin Swanson analyzes the worldviews of humor and points out that Christians often veer out of control when they get in the spotlight (unless they are well grounded). When a comedian is ambivalent on whether the humor piece is attacking or endearing, he falls into the ditches of post-modern relativism and the surreal world of meta-narrative.

Now university professors in Melbourne, Australia encourage infanticide "in some circumstances." What seems fair to you? Should parents have the right to kill babies they discover have some irreparable birth defect? The more important question remains - by what standard? In this segment of Generations, Kevin Swanson turns the discussion on our university friends. Perhaps governments should execute university professors who enable infanticide.

The proud mind of the modern academic skeptic espouses an atheism and agnosticism that do not comport well at all with what we know about reality. Here Professor Edgar Andrews, emeritus professor at the University of London, interacts with some of the typical arguments posed by modern atheists such as Richard Dawkins. The vast number of unanswered questions and internal contradictions in unbelieving systems leads us to ask the question, “Do they really have a theory that holds the whole system together?” They don’t. We do.
