The ethocentric dickhead said Judeo-Christian 'world view' which refers to culture,not belief,but I doubt that's what the fool meant.

The article is just another lame attempt to argue morality comes from the Judeo-Christian religions.

What exactly is that worldview?
From what I've been able to gather, it's supposed to boil down to there is good, there is evil, and God has sent someone to help defeat the evil.

Re-reading the piece, there's one thing that really struck me:
Quote:Whether or not they import stark biblical language or imagery, fictional worlds that involve moral absolutes and real evil are more interesting than those that don’t. Tolkien’s Middle Earth was mired in war. Why? Because Evil existed. And because it existed, the players were on one side or the other.
Well, I guess that someone's never read Watchmen, or the Brothers Karamazov, or, fuck it, any non-genre novel.
