In an age of relativism, where truth is seen as subjective and morality is seen as relative, it can be difficult to find a solid foundation for our beliefs. But what if there are some things that are objectively true and good? What if there are some moral principles that are binding on all people, regardless of their culture or beliefs?

In his book Classical Concepts In An Age Of Relativism, Dr. Peter Kreeft argues that there are indeed some things that are objectively true and good. He draws on the wisdom of classical philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, and Aquinas to show that there are certain universal truths that can be known through reason and experience.

Kreeft argues that the concept of truth is not merely subjective, but rather objective. Truth is not what we believe it to be, but rather what is. We can know the truth about the world through our senses, our reason, and our experience. And when we know the truth, we are obligated to believe it and to act in accordance with it.

Kreeft also argues that the concept of beauty is not merely subjective, but rather objective. Beauty is not what we find pleasing, but rather what is objectively pleasing. We can recognize beauty in nature, in art, and in human beings. And when we experience beauty, we are drawn to it and we are moved by it.

Finally, Kreeft argues that the concept of goodness is not merely subjective, but rather objective. Goodness is not what we believe it to be, but rather what is truly good. We can know what is good through our reason and our experience. And when we know what is good, we are obligated to do it.

Classical Concepts In An Age Of Relativism is a challenging and thought-provoking book that will force you to question your assumptions about truth, beauty, and goodness. But it is also a hopeful book that offers a solid foundation for our beliefs in a world increasingly characterized by relativism.
