The media keeps reiterating that:
J K Rowling is the great defender of correct gender roles.
Richard Dawkins is the great defender of Christian culture.
Jordan Peterson is the great presenter of Christian philosophy.
Ben Shapiro is the great defender of the conservatism many Christians prefer.
Tom Holland, another atheist, is the great Christian history defender.
Do you notice a pattern?
Christianity is clearly reawakening in the West, and the narrative pushers are clearly seeking to gatekeep it. None of these people will truly point anyone to Jesus Christ, Church membership, or discipleship, but will offer a neutered version of pseudo-Christian values that our culture doesn't fear and knows how to contain. Every single one of these people has deeply anti-Christian views.
Beware the gatekeepers, look to those who are truly leading the Christian resurgence. There are many prominent such people out there.
You might say, "What's the harm in the media putting forward these types, these gatekeepers, the kind that are mildly Christian adjacent?" The answer is when you watch them publicly present their positions they are far more easily contained by their secular opponents, because they are actually secular themselves and point people to far more errors than solutions. They are harmless to the secular foundations of our godless society, and give an appearance of pointing in the right direction, but actually don't. Every single one of them, and those of their ilk, want to direct you to the very secularism that got our western civilisation in its current mess.
Christianity is resurgent, the attempts by many in the media to contain it is a good sign. But look outside the ones containing it. They aren't true allies.

A message to today's intellectual elite, public intellectuals, mystics and secularists.
ACTS 17: 24-31
24 The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, 25 nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything. 26 And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for
“‘In him we live and move and have our being’;
as even some of your own poets have said,
“‘For we are indeed his offspring.’
29 Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man. 30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, 31 because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.”
Soli Deo Gloria
May the Lord grant us grace in the days to come.
