On a classic episode of ID the Future, we spotlight the book The Toxic War on Masculinity, by author and scholar Nancy Pearcey, professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University. In her conversation with me, Pearcey argues against the current fashion of seeing masculinity as inherently toxic. She traces the tendency back to Darwinism and explains how the industrial revolution, working hand in glove with secularism, fueled toxic masculinity at the expense of virtuous masculinity. 

Download the podcast or listen to it here. Tune in to hear what Pearcey offers as an antidote to the war on virtuous masculinity.
