sacred/secular danger

"Here we see the danger of the secular/sacred split: It concedes the 'theories, concepts, and other subject matter' in our field to nonbelievers. Christians have essentially accepted a trade-off: So long as we're allowed to hold our Bible studies and prayer meetings, we've turned over the content of the academic fields to the secularists" (Pearcey, 37).



While this is a generalization and not true for everyone / everywhere, it is an interesting observation.
