What is Plainly?
Plainly covers human flourishing across the domains of Christianity, philosophy, and technology.
It is born of the conviction that much of the modern age is superficial and obsequious, though it conceals this reality with complicated “theory” and tedious neologisms, as well as a feigned independence that is more emotive than substantial. These qualities have done substantial damage to letters – to say nothing of their disastrous effects on the person himself.
We aim to take seriously C.S. Lewis’ warning about the abolition of man, and his rejection of men without chests, for we were made in God’s image and not born slaves to other men. Join us in this.
Push back against the age as hard as it pushes against you. What people don’t realize is how much religion costs. They think faith is a big electric blanket, when of course it is the cross.
–Flannery O’Connor
