"<br /><br />I would say that Christians are revealed as lacking a moral Core (rather than Certainty) - or, that they are Not Really Christians. That discipleship of Christ which was most entwined with the churches has mostly gone with the corrupting churches - rather than Christ; on the basis of an excuse that nobody *really* believes nowadays (that 'my' church is always, in a mysterious fashion, incorruptible and Always Right). <br /><br />This is serving as a convenient excuse for spiritual cowardice - as is becoming more obvious by the month. <br /><br />In 2021 nothing stays the same for more than a few months; in particular, the bad is getting worse with an astonishing acceleration.

They're...Christians today lack moral certainty. They're morally confused. The fake moral imperative of anti-racism has guilt-tripped whites into a state of paralysis. They're literally de-moralized. Without moral certainty, Christians have no clarity, no goal, no incentive, no courage, and no unity. With it they can recognize the true nature of their enemy. Armed with that understanding, Christians will be energized. They'll know exactly who to fight, how to fight, and how to win.

I don't think it has anything to do with exploration, since earlier generations often stayed within a small radius, yet were highly motivated compared with now.

Western man by nature is an explorer and philosopher. When the modern world was explored thoroughly he realized that this is it and no where left to go, hence space travel. To add to the problem woke culture has permiated the entire world with no escape leaving people with a sense of desperation or entrapment. So we have a desperate world with maddened people. Perhaps space travel is a proxy for finding God and going home.agraveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14836212961926770078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683970826895755480.post-40495001790460907032021-06-07T00:57:29.756+01:002021-06-07T00:57:29.756+01:00The chances of saving western civilization look sl...The chances of saving western civilization look slim, but the chance to save your eternal soul is guaranteed if you genuinely, sincerely follow Christ to the best of your ability.<br /><br />That's not to say I'm indifferent towards western civilization, but what is more important?TonguelessYoungManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12433490543280815258noreply@blogger.com
