On modern intellectualism
The universities of modern America are bastions, hotbeds of
modern intellectualism. Modern intellectualism. What is it?
What are the characteristics of modern intellectualism?
- it is atheistic, agnostic, humanistic in its outlooks
- it places great emphasis on tolerance --- tolerance of
outlook, value and conduct. Its underlying outlook tends
to be that all ways are right, all views and outlooks are
OK, all is relative, there is no absolute right and wrong;
all is shades of gray and a matter of opinion; there is no
divine authority, only the authority of each man's opinion.
Without a God, who is to say what is right and wrong? Its
outlooks are the humanistic outlooks of moral relativism.
It is antagonistic toward the Bible and the moral absolutes
of the Bible. For all its emphasis on tolerance, however,
it is not tolerant toward those who disagree with its
views. What it really expects is tolerance towards all
kinds of conduct, tolerance of immorality and sin. And it
wants to force everyone into its attitude of viewing all
conduct as acceptable. It wants freedom of speech, freedom
of conduct, freedom to live as you want. But it doesn't
want freedom of speech for its enemies. It wants them and
their views suppressed. Its outlooks make their way into
our educational system as diversity training, tolerance
training. And at bottom, all this "diversity training" is
aimed at one thing: forcing people to accept that great
sin of sins: homosexuality. It hates moral conservatives
and labels them "judgmental" ( I note that any sinner who
sins and then declares, "I have not sinned" will regard the
upright as judgmental --- there is a clash in outlook).
- it tends to be biased toward socialism and communism and
biased against capitalism.
How does this outlook of modern intellectualism compare with
the Biblical outlook? It is diametrically opposed to it. The
Biblical outlook is that there is right and wrong, Good and
Evil, morality and immorality, right conduct and wrong conduct,
righteousness and wickedness. And that in the end the Good
will be rewarded and the Bad will be punished. The Bible
teaches the existence of both a heaven and a hell --- a heaven
of eternal bliss and a hell of everlasting torment. We
find in the Bible a God who loves goodness and detests evil
(a God who is intolerant towards evil).
Why is it that our universities are so overrun by this anti-
Bible, anti-Christian point of view? Indeed our entire
educational system (public schools and universities) is overrun
by this secular, humanistic outlook. Why is this? Reason does
not support the beliefs, outlooks and values of modern
intellectualism. Reason does not support atheism or
agnosticism. It supports belief in a God. Reason does not
support moral relativism. It supports the strict morality that
we find taught in the Bible. Reason does not support socialism
and communism. It supports free enterprise, capitalism. (
Socialism doesn't work and there are good reasons why it
doesn't work.) So why do our modern intellectuals adhere so
strongly to an outlook that Reason does not support, an outlook
against reason? You would think that the outlooks of
university professors would be based in reason. But they are
not. Why? Answer: Because reason is not the real basis for
their belief. They believe as they do because it is something
they want to believe. They like the moral license. They like
the ideas. They are blinded and duped by the Devil. They may
put forth arguments for their point of view, but their
arguments are weak and wrong. They live in intellectual error
and foolishness. But why is there not any alternative
viewpoint being represented in our schools? Why isn't there
anyone putting forth the conservative Christian viewpoint?
Well, we have our constitution and this idea of the separation
of church and state. According to the way our constitution is
being interpreted it is illegal to present the conservative
Christian viewpoint in our schools (i.e. it is illegal to
present the truth in our schools). Religion is strictly
prohibited from the classroom. Now what do you think of that?
So there is only one viewpoint left in the classroom. The
opposite viewpoint. The "secular", atheistic, humanistic
viewpoint. The Devil really has everything set up for himself
doesn't he? Our children are being indoctrinated in an
atheistic, amoral philosophy. They are being trained up in the
humanist "religion". All sides and views are not considered in
the classroom. There is no classroom debate. Our constitution
permits this because humanism is not classed as a religion and
is thus welcome in the classroom. But whether you call it a
religion or not, it is a life philosophy. And it is wrong.
And it leads to hell. So our children are being trained up for
the road to hell. Considering the monopoly that humanism has
in our school system, is it any wonder that the people in
positions of power in our country tend to be so liberal and
anti-Christian? Is it any surprise we have so many liberal
judges interpreting law to conform to their own godless
outlooks? Or so many liberal laws coming out of our congress?
All these people that rule us went to liberal colleges and were
schooled in all the false and foolish outlooks of humanism.
What is the net result of all this? Disintegration of morals.
A country descending deeper and deeper into moral depravity and
degeneracy. Deep moral sickness. It is all really great for
Satan. He loves it. He will have lots of company in hell.
And there is nothing anyone can do about it. It is the law.
The constitution. The law of the land. Set in concrete.
The current degenerate moral state of our country is not at all
surprising. I saw it all coming 50 years ago. I was shocked
by the antics of Alvis Presley back in the 1950's and sensed
the implications of his great popularity. I knew from his
popularity we were going down a slippery slope, knew bad things
were coming. A few years after that we had the big hippie
movement and all its long hair, free love and drugs. That had
me in deep amazement and shock for years. That really told me
a whole lot about people that I would never have believed when
I was younger. From there we have come to where we are. As a
society becomes more and more degenerate it is to be expected
that its laws will change to reflect the depraved outlooks of
the society. I expect our laws will become more and more
outrageous and shocking as time passes. We are on a deep
downhill slope. I don't expect any change in direction.
People are animals. Not all, but a whole lot of them. They
are much worse than animals actually. They much exceed animals
in their capacity for depravity. I expect that in the future a
true Christian will find himself persecuted. That is where
things are headed. Evil cannot stand Goodness. Evil hates
Goodness. Goodness shows it up for what it is. It cannot
abide that.
