This is EXACTLY where we are today - right now - in the West. The media, along with liberals in general have long sought to diminish and blur the line between good and evil, claiming that we should all be "open-minded" and tolerant. No one can judge, truth is relative, they proclaim. Why else are we having such a rough go of it in our war on terrorism? Because the media/liberals all see us as evil aggressors rather than the liberators we are. They hate the moral code of the West and are desperately trying to wither our national resolve.
This is a dangerous time. If they win the battle over these fundamental issues they will wreak much destruction and misery.
I hate to put things in a political context, but I truly believe that one of the reasons there is this sheer hatred for President Bush is because he does see things with moral clarity and they HATE this. They view this as arrogant, the swagger. The whole issue of Bush not being able to "admit" a mistake was really all about Bush's moral clarity and moral code that they wanted him to renounce.
These are important times. Times that will require moral heroes.
Whenever a liberal at my workplace (I'm surrounded by them) smarmily asks me how I know my Christian faith is correct, I simply point out that it's the faith that angers liberals the most. It's the one they feel free to satirize, mock, smear, and denigrate. They'd never treat Islam or any Eastern or aboriginal religion the way they treat Christianity in garbage such as The Da Vinci Code or V For Vendetta. Christianity must be the absolute Truth or it wouldn't bother liberals so much.
Best done the way they are doing it today -- teaching moral relativism in the schools, destroying the concept of absolutes. Isn't that what is behind the homosexual agenda? Sure it is.
Anyone who has ever witnessed a beheading who did not become convinced that there were absolutes dwells on the lowest plane of self-deception.
Agreed!
Bears repeating! Thanks for the post.
