Is Gavin Ortlund A Liberal? Yes.
from Orthodoxy · host Schmitt Media Company LLC
In this episode I respond to a video that was released by Gavin Ortlund yesterday in which he explains why he thinks that he is not a liberal. Gavin says that there are three reasons why people call him a liberal, but I argue that it’s not that Gavin has three liberal views, but rather that Gavin has an entire framework of thinking that is indistinguishable from liberalism.
