The author hints at the root of these lies when he mentions “post-modernism.” That school believes there are no absolutes, and that anything can be defined by its immediate social and cultural context. It goes hand in glove with the marxist notion that truth is a negotiable commodity.

Similar lies are being told every day about global warming, homosexuality, sexual behavior in general, fiscal policy, islam, the nation’s history, and our national security. It is really very simple: they’re lies. Nothing more than outright lies.

“People will always believe the ‘Big Lie’ because humans have a limited capacity to fathom deception on the grand scale.” — Josef Goebbels.

Post of the 21st century. Taught in liberal universities outright and as hidden agenda in public school. I had one psych prof who taught “truth” logically in research design, warning of post-modern thought.

I’ve always thought this was a ridiculous assertion.It’s disturbing to see how many pastors and teachers are so eager to paint a bleak picture of Christians.

I don’t know why they don’t just title their sermons “Jesus Doesn’t Make a Difference,” or “The Ineffectiveness of Faith in Christ.” I cringe every time I hear this kind of trash-talk from the pulpit, and there is a LOT of it going on.

"Why are they showing Right hands when the wedding rings go on the LEFT hand."

In your culture but not in every culture.

Good, now we’ve got an answer to gays who sneer, “You Christians need to get your own act together before telling us gays we can’t marry.”

Maybe the couple are Orthodox Christians. We uniformly place the wedding ring on the right hand at the wedding, and the photo is implicitly a wedding photo. In America Orthodox Christians will often switch it to the left hand later, but not always, esp. among Orthodox from Slavic traditions who will keep the ring on the right hand.

There’s a “Christian” pollster , Barnea, who has been been the expert cited for decades.
