Ravi Zacharias

Christian faith is exclusivistic. Christian faith lays claim upon our lives. The sanctity of life, what we do with a life, is very definitive in the Christian faith, what we do with sexuality, what we do with marriage, all of the fundamental questions of life have points of reference for answers, and people just have an aversion for that.

Douglas Rushkoff

Most simply, 'present shock' is the human response to living in a world that's always on real time and simultaneous.
