- "The truth will set you free" (John 8:32)
- "To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice." (John 18:37)
If we deny the truth, we are bad Christians and bad human beings.
If we put our faith in a lie - including a Big Lie - we are bad Christians and bad human beings.
If we endorse vulgarity, violence, bullying, gaslighting, fraud, irrational conspiracy theories, sedition and hate, we are bad Christians and bad human beings.
Since March of 2020, I have felt like a character in the play Rhinoceros by Eugene Ionesco. In that play, the bestial inhumanity of rhinoceroses becomes a fad and people start turning into them - willingly discarding reason and free will and mocking others who don't.
Meanwhile, since I think some of my posts on this blog contributed to this problem, I have taken them all down [Edit - though I am now planning on reposting some of them - Sept. 30, 2024]. You may follow me at https://theateroftheword.substack.com/.
