Not at all.
The quote about moral muteness comes from his article above.
Weigel lives what he preaches.
this can only be done by assuming the stream of the river is in the right direction.
The principles of truth and morality, as history demonstrates, are objective, universal, and unchangeable. He who does not learn from history is doomed to repeat it.
This much should be clear for anyone who does understand: that the language of objectivity is frought with dangers beyond what reason can presume to manage.
You speak within a Christian tradition. Is it not in the very history of that tradition that the "objective" status of law has been demoted? By Christianity? Already when St. Paul began to write his big pill Romans? And then, as if tired of all that, inordinately raised again, flying on the coattails of Herr Doctor Kant?
And does history stop with Kant? What historical being is this Nietsche, who spat at every objective hope? And what of those stuffy academics, who turn a blind eye to that criticism, happily tooling away at their imperial structure of reason?
