Actually the wholesale rejection of God and His Truth is not just a contemporary phenomenon, something "new" in the world. It has an ancient heritage, and some of the greatest thinkers in the world — Heraclitus, Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, et al. — had diagnosed it over two millennia ago.

Plato considered this phenomenon a pneumopathological disorder (i.e., a psychotic condition) that he termed nosos, and its sufferers as idiotes; Aristotle called it nosemos; Cicero characterized it as aspernatio rationis, or the contempt of reason. The Old Testament refers to the sufferer as nabal, or the man who says in his heart, "There is no God."

And to think, so many who reject God like to call themselves "bright."

The emperor who had no clothes comes to mind...

Thank you so very much for sharing your testimony and all your insights, dearest sister in Christ!

Jeepers, such folk seem pretty benighted to me....

Plus they seem to be chasing their own tails....

Thank you, dearest sister in Christ, for your kind words of support!
