Jonathon Van Maren sits down with Mary Eberstadt, a distinguished Catholic author and historian, to explore the long-term impacts of the sexual revolution on Western society.
They discuss the decline of religiosity, the breakdown of the family unit, and how these trends have contributed to social disintegration. Mary provides compelling insights from her research, discussing the importance of family structures in fostering faith and stability.
They delve into the consequences of the sexual revolution, as well as signs of hope, including the impact of the Dobbs decision and the resurgence of family values in certain communities. Mary offers her perspective on how Christians can lead by example to restore societal norms and bring about positive change.
This interview is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the deep-seated changes in modern Western societies and where we might go from here.
