“Values and Power” and the Fact-Value Dichotomy

Yesterday afternoon BreakPoint published my article “Values and Power.” It’s on what’s called the fact-value dichotomy, in the case of Jennifer Keeton, who was told she must either drop her Christian beliefs or be removed from a university counseling degree program. The fact-value dichotomy means basically that it’s okay for Christians to “believe” what we want, as long as we don’t act in public as if we thought what we “believed” was true.
