Can the West Survive Without Christianity?

It was an honor to do this Spectrum Street Epistemology session with Katharine Birbalsingh. Facilitated by Reid at Vertex Partnership Academies, our initial claim was, “The West can survive without Christianity.”

I interviewed Katharine a year ago at Michaela Community School in Wembley, London. I was completely blown away by the quality of instruction and how engaged the students were. Subsequently, Katharine and I have become friends and done events together, many of which are on this channel.
