The Modern Orthodox approach assumes the secular humanists have the wrong values but the better outcomes; the biblical regime approach assumes the secular humanists have the right values but unsustainable outcomes. 'Naked women' is not a bad outcome, it's a bad value; 'climate change' is not a bad value, it's a bad outcome. The biblical regime speaks to the best way to ensure the proper outcome. The values can take care of themselves. The pursuit of piety is a diaspora self-understanding.
