Three Lies That Degrade Society
American Thinker ^ | 29 Jul, 2025 | Jack Wisdom

Posted on 07/30/2025 4:34:48 AM PDT by MtnClimber

The “big lie” is the name of a propaganda technique, originally coined by Adolf Hitler in Mein Kampf (1925), who wrote, “The great masses of the people ... will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.” Sixteen years later, Hitler’s propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels, actively promoted the big lie as the key principle of the Nazi propaganda machine.

Sadly, lying has become so commonplace in our society that the truth often appears or is portrayed as a lie, and outright lies are given legitimacy by many of our political leaders, our courts, our institutions of higher education, and our religious institutions. In short, tens of millions if not hundreds of millions of people are living in a lie-filled and lie-believing state of mind.

There has been a dramatic decline in church and synagogue attendance. U.S. church membership was 73% when Gallup first measured it in 1937 and remained near 70% for the next six decades before beginning a steady decline around the turn of the 21st century. It has since been between 63% and 37%, with those not in attendance professing no particular religious preference. Thus, growing millions of people are now believing the lie that there is no God, or at least have taken the agnostic position.

This is a dismal rejection of the truth that the universe and our world in particular were created by a Supreme Being and that we owe Him worship, honor, and thanksgiving, for the moral law at the very least, and ultimately for the salvation of our souls.

The noticeable emptying out of many churches is evidence that belief in God is on the wane and that denial is a rapidly spreading lie. Imagine: There are growing millions who believe we evolved

The left is proud that they use the “Big Lie” and that the MSM will repeat it.

Hint to the writer. You say three lies in the title, so your article should, preferably near the beginning, state:

1. Lie #1 Well, what is it, we're waiting
2. Lie #2Well, what is it, we're waiting
3. Lie #3Well, what is it, we're waiting

I agree. Writers don't use structure much anymore.

Here it is:

1. There is no God.

2. People can change their gender.

2. The brotherhood and sisterhood of humanity is denied by the existence of the nation-state. One world government would fix it.

--- "1. Lie #1 Well, what is it, we're waiting 2. Lie #2 Well, what is it, we're waiting 3. Lie #3 Well, what is it, we're waiting"

From a quick reading of the article, and quoting from it:

1) "...belief in God is on the wane and that denial is a rapidly spreading lie." "... a dismal rejection of the truth that the universe and our world in particular were created by a Supreme Being...."

2) "Gender is not assigned at birth, but is a biological reality designated on birth certificates. Any other basis for 'designation' is a lie."

3) "...the lie that the brotherhood and sisterhood of humanity is denied by the existence of the nation-state. "

Thanks. This is important. One reads an article because of the point or thesis stated in the title. Having attracted a reader based upon that title you don’t have license to wander all over expository or fictional space. You need to fulfill the promise in the title. Having done that well, the reader might then be interested in whatever else you have to say on the subject or related points. But when I approach an article because of the title and then have to go wandering around in a verbal wilderness I move on.

“The noticeable emptying out of many churches is evidence that belief in God is on the wane and that denial is a rapidly spreading lie.”

There could be dozens of other possible explanations for the “noticeable emptying out of many churches”.

I would be more worried if the Churches were packed, and Christ isn’t preached there. That’s how Satan will really take over.

1. The personal Income Tax is for revenue (when they can print at will)

2. "My body, my choice" - except it's not your body

3. Oil is a fossil fuel

4. They're "immigrants", not invaders

5. Affirmative Action

From the article - "Thus, growing millions of people are now believing the lie that there is no God, or at least have taken the agnostic position."

I disagree with this statement. I believe that church attendance is down due to those false prophets spouting nonsense from the pulpit. Tons of people recognize it to BS and refuse to go to that particular church or denomination. Just my thoughts.

Just talked to one about 10 days ago. They got extraordinarily uncomfortable 😣 with any talk about Christianity.

The spirit of antichrist is a real thing.

Exactly. Not to mention having to navigate around enough ads to choke a horse.

(Here it is:

1. There is no God.

2. People can change their gender.

3. The brotherhood and sisterhood of humanity is denied by the existence of the nation-state. One World Government would fix it.)

Thanks for the summation. I believe #1 and #2 are the primary tools of people like Democrat Son of Satan Barack Hussein Obama and his acolyte Democrat Joe Biden. Their Homosexual Marriage Agenda LGBTQ / “Transgender” Agenda is a powerful destructive force from the Enemy Satan.

This is why I post. It’s mainly for lurkers to share and some of it has been far more effective than I ever imagined (a couple are the most dramatic in the shortest amount of time).

It’s because churches avoided that stuff under the oppressive Godless Reprobate Democrats.


#3 represents the Godless Globalists who, unfortunately, will achieve their goal (temporarily) with Satan’s New World Order Fourth Beast government of Daniel 7:23.

We have to SHARE with people NOW because the time is coming when it WILL be almost impossible to SHARE.

Proof?: Look at police forces monitoring Social Media in England and Germany, arresting and jailing people over content that is not acceptable to the Godless State which is usually Reprobate too.

We either wake up or we will be forced to submit to some trannytrannytranny’s “pronouns” and their Drag Queens perverting children in Libraries and Schools unchecked. It has already gone too far.

And look at the Social Credit Scoring already going on in China controlling a person’s ability to BUY and SELL.

I don’t need to expand on how oppressive and hostile Communist China is to the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

These things are not only coming to the Western World, they’re already HERE in many ways. The hour is later than most people realize.

(The noticeable emptying out of many churches is evidence that belief in God is on the wane)

Luke 18:7-8
21st Century King James Version

7 And shall not God avenge His own elect, who cry day and night unto Him, though He bear long with them?

8 I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of Man cometh, shall He find Faith on the Earth?”

People think this is nonsense that will:

1) NEVER HAPPEN nor
2) affect THEM PERSONALLY.

It already HAS when the Whole World 🌏🌎🌍 changed dramatically and seemingly overnight (it was several weeks / months)

COVID-19(84)

1) Mandatory Lockdowns
2) Mandatory va666ines
3) De-banking of the Canadian Truckers 🚛🚛🚛
4) A prisoner in your own home 🏠🏡
5) Papers please - I had to have a paper from my job if I got pulled over by the cops 🚓🚓🚓 when the initial Lockdowns occurred.
6) 24/7 nonstop Propaganda from “the news” 📰📰🗞️🗞️📰🗞️

There is something FAR WORSE coming.
