Consider the following quote by Dr. Francis Schaeffer found in his How Should We Then Live? (1979) and identify which option below best explains his main point.A culture or an individual with a weak base can stand only when the pressure on it is not too great. As an illustration, let us think of a Roman bridge. The Romans built little humpbacked bridges over many of the streams of Europe. People and wagons went over these structures safely for centuries, for two millennia. But if people today drove heavily loaded trucks over these bridges, they would break. It is this way with the lives and value systems of individuals and cultures when they have nothing stronger to build on than their own limitedness, their own finiteness. They can stand when pressures are not too great, but when pressures mount, if then they do not have a sufficient base, they crash - just as a Roman bridge would cave in under the weight of a modern six-wheeled truck. Culture and freedoms of people are fragile. Without a sufficient base, when such pressures come only time is needed — and often not a great deal of time ─ before there is a collapse.
Schaeffer utilizes Roman methods of bridge-building to convey the critical role of ideas in supplying lasting answers to life. When these ideas, or worldviews for that matter, are found weak and wanting, they crash like a little Roman humpback bridge because life's pressures are too great.
