Why is the World so Crazy?
When you think it can’t get crazier, it goes to a new level of insanity. Why is this happening?
It’s because that’s what happens when the culture removes truth. You started hearing the term “post-truth” around 2016, but the fall from truth happened long before that. It became popular with something called “postmodernism” around the 1970s. Relativism and skepticism go way back in time. However, it actually began when the serpent in the Garden of Eden asked, “Did God really say that?” More people have accepted the “no-truth” fantasy now. And you’re just seeing the fruit of it.
Here’s the problem. If you are going to think rationally, you must base your thinking on truth. Truth is absolute by definition. When the train of logic leaves the track of truth, it can go anywhere. It can dream up anything. ANYTHING!
The train of logic leaves the track of truth with the first assumption. Let me give you an illustration of how powerful assumptions are. If you allow me one assumption, I can use valid logical form to prove you don’t exist.
Let’s assume you don’t exist.
You don’t exist.
Therefore, you don’t exist.
Do you want to prove anything else? The same process will work perfectly. If you want to prove God doesn’t exist, just use Naturalism and Materialism as axioms. Both of those assume God doesn’t exist. From there, your work is easy. Do you want to prove the Genesis Flood didn’t happen? Just assume Uniformitarianism. Uniformitarianism assumes the Genesis Flood didn’t happen. From there, your work is done.
The human mind can’t reason to truth. It’s can only reason to an opinion. To interpret any observation, experience, or Scripture you either need to make assumptions or receive divine revelation. Jesus Christ is the Light, and He enlightens (gives His wisdom, knowledge, love, joy, and goodness to) every person. Some people acknowledge Him and thank Him. Those who don’t thank Him and give Him the credit take the credit for themselves. They lose the distinction between their own worthless rationalization/self-talk and the wisdom and knowledge that comes from God.
