Seven Men

    Seven Men Who Rule the World From the Grave is the title of a book by Dave Breese. I read the book ten years ago and wrote a blog post about it. I just went through the book again and will only give a summary this time. 
   The seven men who rule the world from the grave and their ideas in a nutshell are:
Charles Darwin--evolution
Karl Marx--socialism
Julius Wellhausen--humanism
Sigmund Freud--sexual revolution
John Dewey--liberal education (no absolutes)
John Maynard Keynes--government economics (deficit spending)
Soren Kierkegaard--situation ethics

  Things have certainly not improved in the last ten years and the book is just as relevant today as it was the first time I read it.
If you would like to read the longer version, you can find it here.
