Jean Luc Porquet gives every week some ethical and cultural issues at Chained Duck, often with a great sagacity. The title of this essay foreshadows its content. Ellul both visionary and prophet, the particularly sharp thinking, largely has glimpsed the world and the contemporary man. The disadvantage of such a book is that it reads too well. The downside of my comment is that I have too little read Ellul whether the author "uses" (with all respect) Ellul's thought in order to justify in part his own convictions! Hence my three stars "conservative" ... that are in no caution. In fact, I much prefer Ellul in the text ... What interested me most in this test is the section devoted to the heritage of the thought of a sociologist. JLP is part undoubtedly, especially in its acute vision of the need for a more conscious of the human paradigm and its limitations, its distrust -to say the least-to the temporal powers and their inevitable corruption, demagoguery and lies. JLP has also honesty to emphasize the Christian commitment of Ellul, he does not share, so that it seems increasingly clear that Protestantism such as Ellul lived can not be separated from his writings sociological. In short, this test is successful to the extent that it makes you want to read and reread this whole character and not easy and uncompromising sincerity
