Is Man a Product of His Own Environment?
Guests: Doug Sharp, Rich Geer, Dan Janzen
Description: Dan Janzen, as a missionary in South Sudan, observes that non-government agencies such as relief organizations, however well-intentioned, can intensify problems in a developing country by giving handouts. They believe that trying to improve the environment will result in a natural tendency toward the good. The opposite is true, people become dependent upon the relief efforts and become lazy, unable to extricate themselves out of theis dependent mode. This is another evolutionary mindset that has gone wrong.
