Are liberalism and political correctness making fools of us all?
By Michael Bresciani
It's easy to explain the presence of dinosaurs on earth, but there is still no real evidence that they evolved. Man is here now in all his highly intelligent glory, but they still can't prove he evolved either. Every now and then they pull a few bones out of a cave and blow the evolution trumpet with or without much empirical proof. Naledi man and Ida are good examples, but that leaves untold millions still never found that should make up a good cross section of the fossil record – a record that does not exist. In fact, there are probably more members and sympathizers for Isis in a thousand Syrian refugees than for all the so called fossils ever found for Homo sapiens.
Entropy says all things go from a more complicated atomic or molecular state to a less complicated state (second law). But even after fifty years or so, evolutionist are still hoping we will believe that it all happened in reverse, going from the simple combination of a few amino acids in a pond, a handy bolt of lightning and then presto – tens of thousands of species and varieties across the globe.
The tie between evolutionary thinking and liberal, Godless, secular and politically correct ideologies and far left politics is remarkably similar.
From simple constitutional freedoms of speech, the right to expect swift justice and the right to bear arms has produced an unfettered lifestyle that has been enjoyed by Americans for a few hundred years.
In the liberal mind such freedom must have PC connotations, racist fail safes and stifling regulations attached. Out of the melee of fuzzy fringy and feckless complications is supposed to come – pure living in all its simplicity and glory. Like evolution it still seems to be void of the all-important missing link – that link is a brain.
Leftism has produced its own Naledi Man complete with phobias, PC, foolish social structuring and a spineless approach to freedom that will have everyone to become the perfectly submissive stepchild of the federal government.
Liberalism knows No Latitude or Longitude – Headlines Witness
Contradictions and absurdities abound to the frustration of the minds of modern man. Only a cursory examination of headlines from around the world indicates that a deep confusion prevails on a global scale.
One such contradiction is from one of this writers own articles that was excerpted and read on the Rush Limbaugh show on November 5, 2015. Yes, the headline is absurd, but this is our world today.
The article title is: "Putin Warns Isis – Obama Warns School District about Girls Shower Room" Michael Bresciani, November 4, 2015
Sometimes headlines show a huge disparity between the ruling bodies and the ruled. It seems that leaders are more interested in their own agendas and less interested in the desires and needs of those they govern.
In a recent statement, Barack Obama told reporters that he stood with the French in their war against Isis, but then he added that Isis and the world would see the fight in 'action' when he stood to represent the U.S. in the upcoming global warming summit.
Not to be outdone, fellow liberal loony bird, presidential candidate, Bernie Sanders said that the growth of Isis is directly related to global warming.
Just when it seems that it could not get any worse along comes two separate, but equally absurd headlines on the website known as trunews.com. – The real news uncensored. The two headlines speak volumes about the power of liberalism to contort basic human reasoning, common sense, and even religion.
"The Real Consensus: 97% of America Not Worried About Global Warming"
"Pope Francis Lectures Poverty Ridden Crowd in Africa About Climate Change"
Comparing Americans who don't go down the block without a car to Africans who ride bikes and can't tell where their next meal is coming from is hard enough to imagine, but what is the Pope doing preaching the gospel of global warming – hasn't he ever heard of the "Great Commission?" (Mt 28:19-20)
As a footnote to this section it must be noted that few in our world pay much attention to the prophetic messages of the Bible. They solidly promise in dozens of implied and explicit teachings that this world is not threatened by global warming. In fact it is our immorality and the other kind of PC known as political confusion that will bring us into judgment and nothing else.
Americans are no strangers to absurdities and contradictions. This week we witnessed a crowd form in protest against police in Chicago where a young black man is seen in a video being brutally shot 16 times by a police officer. No one would argue that this was a great mis-deed and yet the BLM (Black Lives Matter) movement doesn't seem to see that over 400 black on black crimes have been committed in Chicago this year alone. Black lives matter to everyone except blacks – that is the contradiction.
In the height of the war against ISIS our president decides that bringing a quarter of a million Syrians to America is what America is all about. Ignoring the fact that anywhere from 5 to 10 percent of them may be actively involved with Isis or sympathetic to them, doesn't seem to faze the president. This too is high level contradiction.
The antidote to contradiction is contradiction – but few are lining up for the cure.
The greatest contradiction and the greatest absurdity of all time happened many years ago. In a full show of anti-logic and incongruity, the holiest, most loving and merciful man of all time endured the greatest contradiction of all time (crucifixion) so we could be set free of the greatest curse of all time (sin) – and yet not everyone will accept the cure.
It is that contradiction that caused the Apostle Paul to pen these amazing words.
"For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds." (Heb 12: 3)
Contradiction in this verse is a translation from the Greek word "antilogia" – yes, it does mean against all things logical – which is indeed the very definition of absurdity.
That Christ would die, an innocent man, for all the guilty men – is against all logic – but that is exactly what makes it the gospel. (Good News)
It is this one absurdity alone that can help us to deal with all the other absurdities in our world.
Who is lining up for the cure?
