The difficulty is "objectivity" seems to be hard to come by these days; it seems many people either have something to sell, or an ax to grind....

Boy oh boy isn't that the truth!

One cannot edit the world down into something more to one's liking without losing truth.

You can if you think of yourself as a coequal, or superior to, GOD. Our post modernist age allows us to elevate our "feelings" above TRUTH, because there is no absolute TRUTH it's all relative to us on a personal level.

Aye, there's the rub! The people who deny absolute truth leave themselves no solid ground to stand on. They have lost their reason; for absent truth, reason has nothing to do. "Feelings" cannot supply any valid basis by which to order life, personal or social. They will suffer for their own irrationality, in this world or the next. Though they may wield political power and/or influence, this cannot help them in the end. In their arrogance, they do not see this.

May God have mercy on their souls (which many deny even having, poor fools).
