The only option for man is to choose between two slaves: slavery of his Creator, or slavery of all else. The prevalent Western thought today is essentially atheistic in nature, for it traces its origins to a reaction against the Church authority in medieval Europe, which subsequently became a reaction against religion in general. The effort was really to formulate a philosophical basis independent of religion, which was to become the foundation of the new scientific, political, economic, social, and psychological thought.
