(Proverbs 12:17 KJV) He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.Actually, the word still exists in the lexicon of our post modern era but the meaning has been changed. In modern thinking truth is what you want it to be. We can all have our own truths. We can redefine words to fit our goals. Truth is relative.
That is not Middle Class Morality.
MCM is based on absolute truth. Thus when you say that the earth is getting warmer you actually need real numbers, objectively collected over a long period of time to show that. You don’t just need the desire for a federal grant or to have Al Gore get off your back. The facts need to match up one-to-one with reality.
The reason for this is that MCM is based on the God of the Bible. Truth is important to one who defines Himself as truth.
(John 14:6 KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.It is important to cling to truth. Without it you cannot rely on anything. Life would be total chaos. If you don’t believe that look at the post modern era we live in. How is relative truth working for you?
Viva la Middle Class Morality.

I've always said that there can be no morals without God, because without HIM, everything is just a matter of opinion.
ReplyDeleteTo me that is one of the obvious truths of life and yet our entire culture is rejecting that. From one dinosaur to another,

Can I join in that dinosaur club? I agree with y'all.
ReplyDeleteDinosaurs are forced to have a big tent policy. I assume we would have room for small rodents.
