I made this page many years ago and just updated it today [4-16-21] The old post is below.

I don’t have time to re-read it to be honest, but I did deal with the U.S. and Russia. Some of those same subjects are in the news right now.

I have posted news articles the last week or so about the current state of our nation and world events.

Whether you are a liberal or conservative these things should concern you.

I feel the last 4 years of media reporting did damage to our ability to deal with other nations in a responsible way.

The Western world has been wrong on many occasions that led to disastrous wars. I mentioned that on the videos.

In short- if any U.S. president- along with the media- report false news about another country or it’s president- than that leads to conflict if carried to an extreme.

We are indeed at that point as I write.

I have been critical- for good reason about our govt.’s attempts to go after some of the Jan 6 protesters in a way that says they were seeking an insurrection against the united states.

Some who have been arrested and held were not in any way doing this.

The judges in some of the cases have said this.

Yet one of our governments representatives said they were seeking to ‘shock and awe’ the protesters.

This includes a young pregnant girl who is being held without bail by the U.S. government.

Today the first plea was made- I think it was fair.

The person did not plea to ‘insurrection’ or seeking to overthrow the U.S. government.

Which is what some in our government are pursuing.

I’ll post this update soon and add it to the original post I made in 2016?

As I talk about Russia- and ‘WW3’- I want you to simply see that all the evidence- and our  history- seems to show they are not ‘bluffing’ or ‘doing a show of strength’ in their buildup of forces in Syria and along the European/Russian border.

Russia actually sees the US as a real threat.

Obama said the other day ‘they see us as a threat- we are not’.

In short- I think Obama believes this- but the facts are we have a history of siding with rebels in various countries- and for political theater- at times- we back up rebels in these countries- with both U.S. air power- and troops on the ground.

In Egypt- we sided with the overthrow of a longtime Ally- Hosni Mubarak.

He was an ally- and we sided with his ouster.

In Libya- Gadhafi was too somewhat of an ally- because his was the only country that willingly stopped trying to obtain Nukes.

We backed his murder- shown to all the world in a disgraceful manner- with our planes flying overhead.

And off course Iraq- ‘he must go- he has weapons of mass destruction’

Not too long after- he was hanging from a noose.

Now- Putin sees all this- and sees us building up forces in NATO countries right on his border [In violation of our word- we said we would never do this- we changed our mind].

A few years back there were ‘protesters’ in Moscow- 0ne of our ‘leaders’ [I think it was Hilary Clinton] said ‘maybe it’s time for him to go’.

Which means ‘we might fly over your country- bomb you- and back up the rebels’.

Yes- Putin sees our buildup along the NATO border as a threat- and he is right!

I just read an article on CNN about the buildup of Planes and surface to air missiles- by Russia- in Syria.

It’s only a matter of time before Assad and Putin say ‘U.S. - you are illegally flying bombing missions over Syria- we give you a week’s warning- stop’.

Now- if they warn us- what will we do?

I think we will indeed back down- because the ‘war’ over Syria is not only a violation of ‘international law ‘[Syria is a sovereign country whose leader was just again elected by the majority of the population].

Even our own congress believes Obama’s actions are also a violation of U.S. law- because he never got a vote from congress.

Putin is ready to engage in a real- hot- ground war with the U.S.

I heard one pundit say ‘he will never do that- we would destroy him’.

How?

Nukes?

I don’t think Putin would launch them first- but he has the capacity of doing so- the only other nation on earth with that capability.

So- I see Putin giving us an ultimatum to ‘get out’.

 I see him willing to engage- shoot down our planes- etc.

And it’s obvious he’s preparing for a real war.

Iran recently threatened to block the strait of Hormuz- a key passage in the Persian Gulf.

China just blocked our ships from going to Hong Kong.

And that region of the world is going to move ahead  in a way they feel is in their best interest.

The reality is- our military has been engaging in ‘real war’ on the ground for some time now [Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria] and to the dismay of the watching world- we have actually lost territory to ISIS and the Taliban.

This has emboldened other nations.

So why would anyone think ‘Putin would never do it- we would destroy him’.

Once again- by what threat?

The old defense ‘mutually assured destruction’ meant we would both be afraid the other would launch Nukes- and therefore neither side would do it.

Ok- if that’s the reasoning- and Russia feels the threat  of our other actions [our sanctions against their economy- for doing in Ukraine- the very same thing we do- Putin is backing Russian Nationalists- who are in Ukraine. We back ‘rebels’ in countries that are not even on our continent. But we slapped Putin with crippling sanctions- and made lite of it in a national forum [Obama gave a speech and kind of mocked him].

And we think he will not actually say ‘U.S. - your action in Syria is a violation of international law’ [it is] and then engage in a hot war?

Of course he would- and I predict when the ultimatum is given- because of the lack of support in congress- we will indeed back down- or Russia will ‘go to war’.

See?

PAST POSTS-

(594) . Let me cover some church history. I have had someone argue with me about the history of Islam. Not a Muslim, but a Christian who was saying ‘why do you say Islam started in the 7^th century, it started around the 11^th’. My answer was ‘Muhammad lived in the 7^th century’. Not to hard to see this. So I thought I should cover some history. During the time of the rise of Islam, the Christian church was already dividing from east and west. After Constantine [4^th century Roman emperor] consolidated the Roman Empire in the 4^th century he set up the capital city of the eastern empire, Constantinople [named after him]. As time progressed the western church would take on the form of Roman Catholicism, the eastern [Constantinople area. Modern day Turkey-Istanbul] would be known as ‘Orthodox’. Though the official split of eastern and western [Catholic-Rome!] churches occurred in 1054 AD, yet the division started years before. The official split is called ‘the great schism’ of the 11^th century; it would not be until 500 years later that the church would have her ‘reformation’. The official reason for this split was over a rather silly thing. For centuries the Catholic church had an expression that said ‘the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father’ than they included ‘he proceeds from the father and the Son’. Well the eastern brothers didn’t like Rome telling them what to believe and used this as the official reason to ‘have the schism’. To be honest the divisions were coming for years. After the Roman Empire consolidated under Constantine, he tried to strengthen the eastern territories of his empire and for centuries you had the struggle for which region would be the most influential. At first you had 5 major areas that were divided under 5 main Bishops. As time went on the argument would be ‘which bishop has the most say so’ and it was really a power struggle. Finally Rome said ‘the bishop of Rome is the FIRST AMONG EQUALS [a term that many in the Protestant strain of the discipling movement would later embrace] he holds Peters seat’ and this is really where the divisions started. Eventually Muhammad would rise and Islam would take control of the eastern capital. This later became the reason for the crusades. The Catholic church wanted to regain the territories that she lost in the east. The eastern churches are very much Catholic in many ways. They also hold to a view of Christianity that sees man being ‘joined’ with God and becoming pleasing to God thru Christ’s grace uniting with us and making us like him. A perfectly scriptural view, but a different emphasis from the strong intellectual power that you read about from the western fathers of the church. The Catholic church is noted for her social action in ways that the eastern church is not. So both of these communions have good things to bring to the table. The Orthodox [eastern] churches would not be affected by the major social and political upheavals that took place in the west. The Renaissance, the Reformation and the Enlightenment had major impacts on western Christianity, while not affecting the eastern church in the same way. During the 13^th- 15th centuries you would have ‘pre reformers’ rise up in the western church. John Wycliffe, the great Catholic Priest who was at the center of learning in France would become known for his translating the scriptures into the common language. Then you have John Huss and John Knox [3 Johns, scripture says 3 fold cords are not easily broken!] who would have their own influence in western Christianity. At this time you had whole movements of believers who would be seen as neither ‘western or eastern’ but restorationist [the restoring of the early practices and beliefs of the church] Peter Waldo would be the Father of the Waldensians and in the 12^th century you would have the Albigenses in the south of France. These groups would be looked upon as ‘cults’ [though the term was not used yet] by the traditional church. So you can see how the church has been growing and reforming ever since the first century. Even though we see many divisions that exist till this day, there are strides being made for unity. The eastern and western church are very close to‘re uniting’ once again. While I do not personally hold to the doctrine of the Pope being the occupier of Peter’s seat, I also see him as a Christian man who is striving for unity in Christ’s church. Some believe the whole attempt for outward unity is futile. The more ardent Protestants see it as ‘the one world church of the anti christ’ I reject that language out of hand. Well I hope you got something out of this short overview of world history [real short!].

 

[parts]

Part of the achievements of Constantine was his development of the eastern half of the Roman empire- whose capitol was named after him- Constantinople.

 

 

Over a period of years the early Roman church fought over whose bishop would have more influence- the bishop of Rome [Pope] or the bishop in the east.

 

Many bishops in the Catholic Church have disagreed over the influence of one bishop being greater than the others [the idea that all the bishops should have an equal voice at the church councils is called Collegiality].

 

This has caused splits within the Catholic Church thru the centuries [the last big one in the 19^th century].

 

Eventually the early church split- and the Eastern Church separated from Rome.

 

The eastern empire [called Byzantium- the seat of the Eastern Orthodox Church] officially split in the year 1054.

 

Now- in church history we call this the Great Schism- even though the Protestant split which took place in the 16^th century was greater in effect.

 

 

Okay- the Protestant reformers split over various issues- I have an entire study on the blog about this.

 

 

But the main issue became what we call justification by faith.

 

Over the centuries many good men- and average church goers- lost the main message of the New Testament- which was a message of being saved by the grace of God.

 

 

Many well meaning Christians were struggling to do penance in a way that sort of earned them their salvation thru works.

NOTE- It just so happened that I mentioned Istanbul Turkey- and Moscow on this teaching- a day or 2 before the recent events. I posted a short video yesterday about the downing of the Russian plane by Turkey. https://youtu.be/LLmMWnq8uQY 

Brief overview- we [U.S.] are ‘in’ Syria because we are supposed to be fighting terrorists- and nations that support them. Russia is also in Syria to fight terrorists.

Russia is fighting all of them [including the ones that Turkey supports- and backs- also called ‘rebels’- some of these groups we too support- because even though they are similar to ISIS- yet we overlook it- because they are fighting Assad [strange- I know].

Now- Turkey is also a member of NATO- meaning we will ‘back them up- like one of our own’.

So- in our war against terror- we will also theoretically ‘go to war’ against any nation that threatens nations in the NATO alliance [meaning we will defend nations that support terrorism].

Ok- Turkey shoots down a Russian plane [in Syrian airspace- an act of war- which president Obama defended] because the Russians are also bombing the terrorists that Turkey supports.

They shot down a Russian plane because the Russians are killing terrorists [though the ones Turkey backs don’t have the title of ISIS].

Now- after the plane was shot down- the Russians sent in a rescue helicopter- which too was shot at- by ‘rebels’ on the ground [who were the terrorists Russia was bombing].

These so called rebels- shot at the helicopter- using U.S. weapons- provided to them- wit U.S. backing [in theory- we supplied the terrorists that killed the Russian rescue team].

Now- Russia is mad- and we are supposed to support Turkey- even if it means war- because Turkey shot down a Russian plane- who were targeting terrorists.

Utterly amazing to me.

PAST POSTS [verses below]

I told him ‘did you know that Muhammad- the founder of Islam in the 7^th century- had many of the same protests that other Christian groups would later voice too’.

 

 

I explained that Muhammad’s rise in defense of the poor and down cast [by the way- that’s actually a biblical characteristic of prophets- in the bible] were similar to Christian movements that would rise later on- like the Salvation Army.

 

 

I went on to show that he also felt like the growing use of statues in Christian worship was a violation of the commandment that says you should not make images/idols.

 

 

Now- to my Catholic friends- I have taught the entire history of the use of art- and yes- statues- in Christian worship.

 

 

I have also taught against the Iconoclasts- those Protestants who destroyed the statues in the Catholic churches- during the times of the Reformation [16^th century].

 

So- I’m not ‘Catholic bashing’ at all.

 

The point is- Muhammad had some of the same objections- based on the bible- that later Protestants would have.

 

Gee John- I never knew this?  That’s why I teach it- it helps to have less of a negative view of Muslims as a whole.

 

 

So- after I try to look at some of the good things that Islam has done [Hamas- in the Palestinian area. Why do they garnish so much support among the populace? Because they start hospitals- they feed the poor- they start welfare programs for the kids. Do they do this as some sort of trick- a way to gain the hearts and minds of people? No- they do this because it’s a basic tenet of their faith].

[parts]

St. Thomas and Augustine.

 

I mean these are 2 of my favorite Catholic scholars.

 

Augustine- the 4/5^th century Bishop of North Africa- and Thomas- the great 13^th century Doctor Angelicas [Angelic Doctor].

 

Yes- these are some big players in Theology and Philosophy.

 

So why have the media reported that the pres used them in his war strategy?

 

They are also famous for the development of the Just war Theory.

 

Yeah- people for centuries have appealed to these great thinkers in their justification for war.

 

But Obama- how does he find the time to read these guys?

 

I mean- unless their names are on the golf balls [he just played his 100th round!]

 

I don’t see him having time to read them.

 

So why mention it?

 

Because he fumbled the ball with our Catholic friends [who just began a 2 week prayer and fast against the repression of religious liberty- because of the presidents demands that they provide birth control thru their institutions].

 

And he needs to make amends- so lo and behold- he loves reading the Catholic scholars!

 

If you put all this together- the ongoing scandals- not just one.

 

The actual lies- the ones they have been caught in- on paper.

 

I mean even a mainline reporter could not believe that the revealing of this was ‘no big deal’.

 

And now- the fact that the pres came out the other day and addressed the nation ‘me and my Whitehouse have not released any CLASSIFIED information’.

 

‘It’s an insult to think this’.

 

Then- one week later- on Friday- they sent a letter to congress- declassifying the drone war

in Yemen.

 

They were basically saying ‘yeah- we were behind the releasing of all the info- it’s just we ‘declassified it’ first’.

 

He is going to say when he released the info- his office first ‘declassified it’.

 

But when he addressed you- and me- he was outraged- he made it sound like he was not aware of the leaks.

 

And 99 % of the public took it this way.

 

Look- when you get caught doing this- over and over and over- I mean this is not a one time affair.

 

Then it does make the public wonder about everything else.

 

And when the public asks for answers- and you respond by playing the race card- then it’s time for some people to resign.

VERSES-

But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Eph.

I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. Jn. 8:18

3 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

² And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

³ For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

⁴ And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

⁵ Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,

⁶ And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

⁷ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

⁸ Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

⁹ And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

¹⁰ And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

¹¹ I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

¹² Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Matt

(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 2^nd Cor. 10:4

Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

Ephesians 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Ephesians 1:8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;

Ephesians 1:9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

Ephesians 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:

Ephesians 1:11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

Ephesians 1:12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

Ephesians 1:14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Ephesians 1:15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

Ephesians 1:16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

Ephesians 1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

Ephesians 1:18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

Ephesians 1:19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

Ephesians 1:20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

Ephesians 1:21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

Ephesians 1:22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

Ephesians 1:23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

Correction- I have been referring to the police station in Flour Bluff as ‘Robin Hood’. I’m not sure where I got that from. But I’m reading an article right now- in the paper. Some car crashed into the station last night. They refer to themselves as BRAVO. It’s not a big thing- but I wanted to correct it.

NOTE- As I have been overviewing the book of judges- and hitting on Colossians.

I want you guys to see a common theme.

That in the Old Testament God’s people cried out for deliverance- meaning being ‘saved’ from the oppression of unjust rulers [the other nations that ruled over them at times].

So God raised up deliverers- judges- and the Spirit of God would come upon them- and they ‘judged’.

Many of the famous ‘bible stories’ come from this book- Samson, Gideon, etc.

At the time of the appearing of Christ- God’s people were waiting for the promised Messiah.

In their minds- they were waiting for the next- ‘judge’ or deliverer.

We see this in the prayer of the Virgin Mary [Mary’s Magnificat] as well as in the response to John the Baptists birth.

NOTE- It just so happened that I mentioned Istanbul Turkey- and Moscow on this teaching- a day or 2 before the recent events. I posted a short video yesterday about the downing of the Russian plane by Turkey. https://youtu.be/LLmMWnq8uQY 

Brief overview- we [U.S.] are ‘in’ Syria because we are supposed to be fighting terrorists- and nations that support them. Russia is also in Syria to fight terrorists.

Russia is fighting all of them [including the ones that Turkey supports- and backs- also called ‘rebels’- some of these groups we too support- because even though they are similar to ISIS- yet we overlook it- because they are fighting Assad [strange- I know].

Now- Turkey is also a member of NATO- meaning we will ‘back them up- like one of our own’.

So- in our war against terror- we will also theoretically ‘go to war’ against any nation that threatens nations in the NATO alliance [meaning we will defend nations that support terrorism].

Ok- Turkey shoots down a Russian plane [in Syrian airspace- an act of war- which president Obama defended] because the Russians are also bombing the terrorists that Turkey supports.

They shot down a Russian plane because the Russians are killing terrorists [though the ones Turkey backs don’t have the title of ISIS].

Now- after the plane was shot down- the Russians sent in a rescue helicopter- which too was shot at- by ‘rebels’ on the ground [who were the terrorists Russia was bombing].

These so called rebels- shot at the helicopter- using U.S. weapons- provided to them- wit U.S. backing [in theory- we supplied the terrorists that killed the Russian rescue team].

Now- Russia is mad- and we are supposed to support Turkey- even if it means war- because Turkey shot down a Russian plane- who were targeting terrorists.

Utterly amazing to me.

PAST POSTS [verses below]

I told him ‘did you know that Muhammad- the founder of Islam in the 7^th century- had many of the same protests that other Christian groups would later voice too’.

 

 

I explained that Muhammad’s rise in defense of the poor and down cast [by the way- that’s actually a biblical characteristic of prophets- in the bible] were similar to Christian movements that would rise later on- like the Salvation Army.

 

 

I went on to show that he also felt like the growing use of statues in Christian worship was a violation of the commandment that says you should not make images/idols.

 

 

Now- to my Catholic friends- I have taught the entire history of the use of art- and yes- statues- in Christian worship.

 

 

I have also taught against the Iconoclasts- those Protestants who destroyed the statues in the Catholic churches- during the times of the Reformation [16^th century].

 

So- I’m not ‘Catholic bashing’ at all.

 

The point is- Muhammad had some of the same objections- based on the bible- that later Protestants would have.

 

Gee John- I never knew this?  That’s why I teach it- it helps to have less of a negative view of Muslims as a whole.

 

 

So- after I try to look at some of the good things that Islam has done [Hamas- in the Palestinian area. Why do they garnish so much support among the populace? Because they start hospitals- they feed the poor- they start welfare programs for the kids. Do they do this as some sort of trick- a way to gain the hearts and minds of people? No- they do this because it’s a basic tenet of their faith].

[parts]

St. Thomas and Augustine.

 

I mean these are 2 of my favorite Catholic scholars.

 

Augustine- the 4/5^th century Bishop of North Africa- and Thomas- the great 13^th century Doctor Angelicas [Angelic Doctor].

 

Yes- these are some big players in Theology and Philosophy.

 

So why have the media reported that the pres used them in his war strategy?

 

They are also famous for the development of the Just war Theory.

 

Yeah- people for centuries have appealed to these great thinkers in their justification for war.

 

But Obama- how does he find the time to read these guys?

 

I mean- unless their names are on the golf balls [he just played his 100th round!]

 

I don’t see him having time to read them.

 

So why mention it?

 

Because he fumbled the ball with our Catholic friends [who just began a 2 week prayer and fast against the repression of religious liberty- because of the presidents demands that they provide birth control thru their institutions].

 

And he needs to make amends- so lo and behold- he loves reading the Catholic scholars!

 

If you put all this together- the ongoing scandals- not just one.

 

The actual lies- the ones they have been caught in- on paper.

 

I mean even a mainline reporter could not believe that the revealing of this was ‘no big deal’.

 

And now- the fact that the pres came out the other day and addressed the nation ‘me and my Whitehouse have not released any CLASSIFIED information’.

 

‘It’s an insult to think this’.

 

Then- one week later- on Friday- they sent a letter to congress- declassifying the drone war

in Yemen.

 

They were basically saying ‘yeah- we were behind the releasing of all the info- it’s just we ‘declassified it’ first’.

 

He is going to say when he released the info- his office first ‘declassified it’.

 

But when he addressed you- and me- he was outraged- he made it sound like he was not aware of the leaks.

 

And 99 % of the public took it this way.

 

Look- when you get caught doing this- over and over and over- I mean this is not a one time affair.

 

Then it does make the public wonder about everything else.

 

And when the public asks for answers- and you respond by playing the race card- then it’s time for some people to resign.

PAST POSTS [verses below]

I read a piece form the N.Y. Times- they went into Libya and investigated the reports of the deaths of many civilians caused by NATO and the U.S. during the ‘no fly zone’ debacle.

 

They found evidence of many civilians that were killed. They presented the report to the new leaders of Libya- they could care less.

 

In Benghazi- the main city in the eastern half of Libya- they were openly flying the Al-Qaida flag.  We just spent 10 years and many lives fighting in Afghanistan. Why? Because they gave territory to Al-Qaida- they gave them a place to work out of.

 

We fought the Taliban for 10 years over this. Yet in a few months NATO and the U.S. gave Al-Qaida their own capitol to fly their flag- I mean the terrorists must be thinking ‘if we knew these guys were this stupid- we would have never bombed the towers’.

 

In Tripoli- the real capitol of Libya- the various militia groups [terrorists] are all claiming they are the security/armed forces of Libya. I heard a doctor- on N.P.R. - not a right wing radio show- he said in his hospital these various militias are all trying to take charge- they walk around with guns- sometimes walk into a room and shoot a patient who they think is not on their side- and the doctors say they have no security at all.

 

Under Gadhaffi things ran well- like a normal society- now their country is a terrorist haven- run by these guys.

 

I could go on and say the same for Egypt- and tell the stories of how the military have been killing protestors in the street. All these things are being done under people that the West [we- NATO- France] have enabled by removing their former leaders.

 

And France this week passed a law making it a crime to deny the genocide that took place in Turkey in the early part of the last century.

 

Yes- the Ottoman Turks did slaughter many Armenians- Christians- at the time. And getting Turkey to officially admit this has been a problem for years. But France passing a law to make it a crime to deny it- while they just finished committing ‘crimes against humanity’ themselves- by killing all the Libyan civilians- it’s just too much.

[parts]

Also about 2 weeks ago I wrote some posts on the Syrian situation- if you remember both Russia and China rejected the U.S. lead effort [in the U.N.] to condemn Assad [the Syrian president] and call for his ouster.

 

At the time I said the U.S. needs to realize that we can’t keep calling for the ouster of leaders- even bad ones- every time a rebellion rises up.

 

Why?

 

Because the radical Islamist groups see this- and that’s why you started having various protestors calling for ‘NO FLY ZONES’.

 

They were reading us- and at times trying to simply manipulate us to do their bidding.

 

Now- after our U.N. resolution failed [because of China and Russia voting it down] Susan Rice- the U.S. ambassador to the U.N.- made a public statement- calling it ‘unconscionable’ and using language that you normally don’t see by ‘fellow negotiators’ from the U.N.

 

As I watched the fallout- I saw that experts at how the U.N. process works- they said Rice was incompetent- and her reaction showed her inability to handle the job.

 

These criticisms came from both sides- Russian and U.S.

 

I also said at the time that the U.S. needs to basically listen to what Russia’s objections are- and we need to move in their direction on this- and not the other way around.

 

Russia basically was fed up with the West coming in and backing rebel groups- unseating the leaders of the countries- and then leaving the place a mess [Libya- Egypt].

 

Russia [and China] saw the writing on the wall- and they called for a ceasefire on all sides- and for everyone to sit down at the table.

 

I thought this was the best way to go as well.

 

But Rice [U.S.] called for Assad to step down [which means he will get tried and executed- as various Al Qaeda groups take the country over].

 

So just the other day- the news headlines read ‘Russia capitulates to U.S. position’.

 

As I read the article- the opposite happened.

 

We agreed to the Russian position- not the other way around.

 

But every article on it- bar none- made it look like ‘we prevailed’.

 

That Obama and his team were the real experts- standing up for liberty- and the other side lost.

 

How many people knew enough to see that the articles were wrong- how many just read the headlines and thought ‘wow- what a bang up job that Susan Rice is doing at the U.N.’

 

This is how media bias works- sometimes I think they even believe their own stuff- even when it’s obviously wrong.

 

In the next week or so I’m going to try and wrap up a few more posts on Philosophy.

 

We started around 6 months ago- with the pre Socratic Philosophers [7-800 years B.C.] and made it all the way up to the Existentialists of the 19^th century.

 

I hate to stop there- because we were right at the time of the rise of the Atheistic existentialists- the Nihilists- who saw no hope in existence.

 

These guys ‘stole’ existentialism from its founder- a Christian- Soren Kierkegaard- and developed a purposeless philosophy- a ‘man without hope’ future world.

 

Guys like John Paul Sartre and Camus [20^th century] were writing/saying things like ‘the only question now left is the viability of suicide’.

 

Books with the simple title ‘Nausea’ or ‘no exit’ [a play]- describing the fate of man.

 

As I watch/read the current trends- it is tempting to see our future in this way.

 

I mean society is struggling for meaning- Arab nations are going thru tremendous times of questioning- and some observers are grasping at the solutions that the 19^th century Atheists already espoused- and failed.

 

Men like Sam Harris [the End of Faith] blame all society’s ills on religion itself- pointing to Islamic terrorism- and making statements like ‘almost all wars are religion based’.

 

I mean his argument sounds good- he’s just wrong.

 

Out of all recorded major wars- around 1700- under 10 % are considered religious in nature.

 

But who really has time for facts like this?

 

So- over the next few weeks- as I watch the scene- maybe catch the Ferrell flick- I will keep in mind another famous line of Ferrell’s.

 

He was talking to Christina Applegate- in his classic film ‘Anchorman- the Legend of Ron Burgundy’.

 

And there sitting at some lookout- viewing the city of L.A.

 

And Ferrell waxes eloquent about the city- he says ‘L.A. - the city named after..’

 

Well- it’s kinda crass- he basically says it was named after the female part of a whale.

 

Christina looks at him- puzzled- and says ‘I think its name means City of Angels’.

 

Ferrell disagrees- he tells her ‘well- we will just have to agree to disagree’.

 

She says ‘no- I’m pretty sure I’m right’.

 

I’m glad the country is having a debate about what’s right and wrong- the Trayvon Martin case- the ethical responsibility that society has to the poor [Health care arguments].

 

Our role as a lead nation ‘among nations’- how to side with the protestors- in a responsible way that doesn’t leave the nations in a mess when where done.

 

All of these debates are ethical in nature- the questions we are asking is ‘is this right or wrong’.

 

And contrary to some modern thinkers- there is a right and a wrong on these issues- yes- sometimes we compromise- sometimes we ‘agree to disagree’ and sometimes it takes one side to tell the other ‘no- I think you are wrong on this’.

 

Do it in love- do it with boldness- ‘speaking truth to power’ but when you see the need- then do it.

[parts]

A big story is the Syria situation. Syria is another one of these ‘Arab Spring’ nations that has had protestors rise up in the streets [Egypt- Libya- etc.]

 

But this time the world community [Russia- China] are not going along with the mantra from the West ‘he is a war criminal- he is on the wrong side of history’ if I hear Susan Rice or any other top U.S. official say this again- I will move to Libya [okay- maybe not].

 

This past week the U.S. tried to pass a motion at the U.N. that would condemn the Syrian leader- Assad- and call for him to step down and hand the govt. over to someone else.

 

Now- at this point- after the track record we [Western nations- U.S.] have- whenever protestors rise up- if we don’t like the leader- we begin saying ‘he is bad- he is on the wrong side of history- just step aside- that’s reasonable’.

 

The result of those who take our ‘advice’ is your family and you get arrested- or you get killed- and then those who survive- even your wife- will be tried and also possibly get executed.

 

So- that’s why none of these remaining guys are following our lead anymore. Yemen [Salah] - Syria [Assad] and all the rest.

 

Now- when the U.S. pushed thru the U.N. resolution on Libya- we swore up and down that this ‘no fly zone’ mission was strictly humanitarian in nature.

 

Russia did not vote for this agreement- but they abstained.

 

After NATO and the U.S- and France- who played a pretty big role- went in- the mission turned into an all out attack on the Libyan leader.

 

We hunted him and his family down- we bombed his kids home multiple times and even killed his grandkids- all under the guise of a ‘no fly zone’ to protect civilians.

 

Okay- Russia was pissed- and they swore they would never fall for another U.S. lead effort that said anything near what the Libyan resolution said.

 

That’s why they voted no.

 

Plus Russia has had their own protestors in the streets these last few months- and we started saying some of the same stuff we said when the protestors rose up in Libya- Russia told us to shut up and mind our own business.

 

They see the writing on the wall- the U.S. will sing this song ‘wrong side of history- free the people’ but we only sing it when its happening with nations we don’t like.

 

When Bahrain and Saudi Arabia abuse their people- which they do- we sing another song- one that basically says ‘citizens should be seen- and not heard!’

 

So the world community has caught on- and every where we have called for the former leader to step down- well those nations are now a total mess.

 

Egypt?

 

This week the generals- who now run the country- have detained 19 American activists and are going to try them for instigating disharmony in the country.

 

One of those detained is the son of our transportation secy. Ray Lahood.

 

The right wing media have described this as ‘the Muslim brotherhood has taken over and they are holding Americans hostage’.

 

Okay- I know this plays into a very real danger- one that I have written on.

 

But we need to be careful that we don’t ‘over’ do this fear.

 

In actuality the reasons these guys are being detained is because the Generals- not the Muslim Brotherhood crowd- are mad at the U.S. because we convinced them to overthrow their pharaoh- Hosni Mubarak- and after we convinced them- their nation is in total shambles.

 

Egypt used to be a wonderful place to go- tourism was a top business for the country- they have all the ancient sites and artifacts from thousands of years that tourists would go see.

 

They were the land of the Sphinx and the pyramids- but after their ‘revolution’ they are no longer a place where tourists want to go- they lost around 90 % of their business.

 

They are trying their former leader- and many are calling for his execution- and his wife’s too!

 

These are people who wined and dined with Clinton and other presidents over the years- they were seen as friends and allies- and the U.S. basically undercut Mubarak’s rule and now he’d be lucky to escape a public hanging!

 

So- how did we convince the Generals to overthrow the guy?

 

Their top military leaders all train at West Point- yes- here in the U.S.

 

Our top military guys had very close connections to their military- and we went behind Mubarak’s back and convinced these military guys to remove the guy.

 

Now- after his removal you began having more protests in the streets- some calling for ‘justice’ on the generals- and of course their families- for not doing enough.

 

The generals found themselves under the same criticism as Mubarak.

 

And yes- Obama began using the same language about them ‘we want a just transition- the military leaders will be held accountable for any abuse of their citizens’ you know- the key phrases that mean ‘heck- maybe you and your family will be next’.

 

The generals saw the writing on the wall- and they are gonna try these 19 American activists- they are not gonna play the game anymore with the West.

 

Lets end with one more example.

 

One of the big stories going on right now is the possibility of Iran getting a Nuke. We- as well as Israel- have been putting pressure on Iran to drop their Nuke program.

 

We are treating the Nuke program of Iran as the number one danger in the world today.

 

We often forget that many nations have nukes- many bad nations.

 

Iran has 2 nations on either side that have hundreds of nukes.

 

Israel and Pakistan.

[parts]

Syria.

 

Yes- once again it made headlines.

 

There were reports of lots of civilians killed again.

 

Many of them kids.

 

Assad [the leader] denied it was his men.

 

The killers were indeed militia men- in uniform- not standard govt. fighters.

 

But it seems as if they are working for Assad.

 

Russia at first questioned it- they are strong supports of Assad.

 

They thought maybe it was Al Qaida- who are operating in the country.

 

They bombed a military hospital a few weeks back and killed civilians.

 

But Russia seems like they might be changing their tune a little- they are also speaking out more forcefully against Assad.

 

I watched Tom Freidman on the Charlie Rose show.

 

Freidman is a writer for the N.Y. Times- he’s usually right on.

 

He’s calling for a No Fly Zone in Syria.

 

I must ask these guys ‘what do you mean’?

 

Assad is not using planes to attack the rebels- just like Gadhaffi in Libya.

 

So what would a true no fly zone accomplish?

 

The term ‘no fly zone’ has come to mean ‘we will go in to your country- under the guise of NATO- but the U.S. will pay for most of it- do most of it- and we will bomb the hell out of your leader’.

 

Oh- then after were done- Al-Qaida- or any radical Islamist group- will rule the land.

 

So- because of our action in Libya- this is the new definition of a no fly zone.

 

I don’t want to sound like I support Assad- I don’t- but this strategy has failed.

 

In Egypt- where we forced the leader to step down [Mubarak].

 

They just had their election- and it’s a runoff between a former govt. man and the Muslim Brotherhood.

 

The president has supported the Muslim Brotherhood [our president!]

 

He had them at the White House a few weeks back.

 

This gave them an aura of support from the West- for a U.S. president to invite one of the groups of an upcoming election to have a personal sit down in the White House is showing favoritism.

 

So the actual protesters who gave their lives in Tahrir square- their voices are not being heard.

 

The moderate candidates did not win.

 

The Muslim Brotherhood might not be as bad as Al-Qaida [Might!] but they do advocate for Shariah law.

 

Egypt was not an Islamic run state in the past- we ousted out Mubarak and now it looks like they will become one.

 

Why is this bad?

 

Let’s see- gay folk- yeah- we catch you in the act- we kill you.

 

Women- caught cheating- we stone you.

 

Christians- if we think you blasphemed Allah [like witnessing for Jesus] your dead too.

 

Should I go on?

 

Yet the president and many in the western media hail the recent elections as a great victory for Democracy- after all it is a real vote.

 

I wonder how many of these same reporters would think the same if some Western nation elected a bunch of radical Christian fundamentalists who wanted to kill gays and women.

 

We see the double standard- and it’s huge.

 

And let’s end with politics.

 

Yes- the lines are drawn and Obama has made it clear that his strategy to go after Bain capital is going to be their campaign.

 

Okay- Bain capital is the financial firm that Romney ran.

 

This firm used PRIVATE MONEY to go into hurting companies and provide cash.

 

In some cases- not all- they had to downsize.

[parts]

I read a statement from the French President- Nicholas Sarkozy. He was speaking about the dire situation in Syria [Syria has been fighting rebels in a city called Homs- they have been using deadly heavy artillery to bomb buildings and homes- many civilians have died].

 

Sarkozy said a military response [Like what he- and we- did in Libya] was no longer a legitimate solution.

 

I found this insightful- France was thee number one supporter of the ‘no fly zone’ in Libya. France had their planes bombing many spots- they were more ‘pro war’ than the U.S. and the Brits.

 

Many in the political scene in France have accused Sarkozy of wanting to develop the image of a mini Bush- that is a leader who is willing to engage in violence in order to defend ‘just causes’ in the world.

 

Right after the Libyan action began- some in the Arab/Muslim world began saying that France and NATO should be seen as the enemy- not Gadhaffi.

 

In Afghanistan- where France has troops like us under the NATO banner- they just had an Afghan soldier- one who is supposedly on our side- gun down a bunch of French troops in cold blood.

 

The French president then called for a quicker withdrawal of forces than the U.S. wanted [2013- instead of 2014].

 

Sarkozy realized- that no matter how just your cause might seem- there are never any situations where one side is 100 % right- while the other 100% wrong [let's say rarely].

 

In Egypt- Libya- and now Syria- you do not have [did not] complete agreement on the protests. Many who had stable lives and lived for many years in these countries- they felt like the rebels were wrong about the way to have their ‘revolution’.

 

Many in the Christian minority saw the revolutions as dangerous to their own survival.  Our actions in Iraq have decimated the Christian population there.

 

Though we did not mean to do this- the result is we have installed a more anti Christian regime in the country.

 

The same has now happened in Egypt- the original Tahrir square protestors might have been a majority of simple pro- democracy groups- but after the recent parliamentary elections- the Muslim Brotherhood took over about 50 % of the parliament.

 

Though this group has rejected violence and terrorism as a means to gain power- yet they still advocate for an extreme religious view if they gain power.

 

They want Shariah law as the law of the land- and this type of ‘democratic govt.’ is really not good- even if it is voted in by a majority.

 

We in the West have different values than some in other parts of the world.

 

We tend to side with those who want to ‘throw off the shackles of dictators- free the voice of the people’.

 

Yet we underestimate the very real danger of sounding this mantra every time a nation has rebels rise up in the streets.

 

Say if all you saw on the news every night was the Occupy Wall street protests.  And say if there rose up a few hundred thousand that marched nightly on Washington [which we never want to happen!]

 

But say if that’s all you saw every night- and it got so dangerous that troops- or cops- had to actually shoot some protesters.

 

We would understand why we had to do this- we would not be calling for the president to step down- or for his family to be submitted to a trial by ‘right wing’ conservatives who just might execute you and your kids.

 

Now- I am not saying all these leaders in these nations are equal to the American system- but it’s foolish for us to look at all these situations thru the lens of Western style Democracy.

 

We [the West] seem to think that when we side publicly with the rebels [whoever they be- Libya- Syria- etc.] that we are on the ‘right side of history’ that we are a part of a true democratic movement that will spread thru the world and in a few years down the road we will be living n a world with many truly just democracies.

 

That picture- that hope- as just as it might seem to those who keep using this type of language [like John McCain- who I like!] is simply not a realistic view.

 

Where did the idea of Democracy come from? Did world governments have democratic style govts for thousands of years?

 

No- the idea rose up during the Enlighten period [17^th- 18^th century] and was promoted by men like John Locke.

 

If you remember- we studied the philosophy of Locke this past year.

 

Locke played a key role in the transition of popular philosophy from Rationalism to Empiricism.

 

We covered that in the posts- don’t want to do it again.

 

But Locke- like other thinkers of the time- began writing on a new idea of govt- a govt ‘by the people- and for the people’.

 

Many people living at the time resented the rule of kings- and the role religion [Catholic countries] played in society as a whole.

 

One of the first experiments with people saying ‘we will throw off the church and king’ was what we call the French Revolution.

 

It took place right at the end of the 18^th century- right before the Napoleonic wars.

 

It was a Secular [non religious] effort to depose the rule of govt we call Monarchy [King and Queen] and it resulted in the Guillotine and beheading of many Catholic priests and leaders.

 

It was truly a rebellion that got way out of hand.

 

Yesterday- one of the current Repub candidates for president made headlines when he compared Obama’s recent ‘anti religious’ actions to the French Revolution.

 

One commentator [CNN] said the rebels were all Catholics and that to say the revolution hurt the church was wrong.

 

This man [Paul Begala] had no idea what he was saying- its sad that they say misinformed statements like this to such a wide audience.

 

Some of our founding fathers were fans of John Locke [Jefferson] and our country drew up the founding documents during a time when these ideas were ripe and were seen as a new type of govt. for the people.

 

Thus- we have our Democracy today- for which I am grateful- do indeed think it’s the best in the world today- but it is not inherently ‘more just’ than all other styles.

 

The govt. we see in the bible is Monarchy [mostly- Rome was Imperial- did have a senate and all- but in no way was it a democracy like we think of].

 

The point?

 

When we try to help these countries- when people rise up and protest- we must not simply jump to the conclusion that all of these rebellions are seeking- or will end up like the U.S.

 

We must not condemn all ‘monarchies’ as evil- the bible says there are just ones.

 

Kings can rule justly- be fair- and do good.

 

We should not assume that all ‘non western style democracies’ are evil- they are not.

 

Most of these present uprisings are in countries where you have what’s called Autocratic rule- not full ‘kingdoms’ with kings in the way we think.

 

Yes- I do think our experiment- based on the Enlightenment idea of govt. by and for the people is the best- but we must not assume all other types are inherently evil- nor should we be so quick to side- militarily will all rebels- like some already calling to arm the rebels in Syria.

 

The end result of these protests are not secure at all- it is highly doubtful that any of them will become ‘little U.S. of A’s’.

 

So we should call for non violence on all sides- we should stand on the side of innocent victims- be against all regimes that use military force on their people- but be realistic about the situation- violence [on all sides] is very rarely the answer- Sarkozy learned this lesson the hard way.

[parts]

Was gonna do one last post [for now] on Libya- we will need to cover the whole development of how we began to view/and act over a 6 month period- we acted [as a nation] contrary to our public statements. We swore- over and over again- that we were not targeting the man [or his family] and he swore [before the U.N. - by his rep.] that we were lying- and did indeed already kill a few of his grandkids [which was true] and were going after him.

 

Then- on national T.V. - we saw him flee Sirte [his hometown] and get bombed by both NATO and American planes [ours were Drones]. We destroyed a bunch of vehicles- left a lot of dead bodies- but he made it to a tunnel.

 

Then he got pulled out- ended up with a bullet in the head. O- forgot- this happened a day or 2 after Hillary Clinton visited Tripoli [her first visit] and said ‘we are waiting for you to capture or kill him’ [oop’s!] She later had to ‘clarify’.

 

She also was caught on tape- laughing and rejoicing over his death- okay- many people did- but if your saying publicly- ‘that’s not what we want’- then it looks bad.

 

Of course the other Arab nations want the U.N. to investigate- they were being told- by us- that we were not going after him. He begged for a peaceful resolution [he did do this!]. But we basically said no.

 

There are lots of questions to still be answered on this thing.

 

Okay- yesterday I wrote a quick note about a conversation I had with a new friend who just joined my site. She was into some new age stuff- we talked a little- I defended historic Christian belief- then she blocked me.

 

Let’s talk a little about Apologetics/Theology. Apologetics is the field where Christians Defend the Faith.

 

In our day- it is common for believers to be ‘left in the dust’ when they bang up against an atheistic scientist [they not all are!] or someone versed in Philosophy [Sartre or Camus- atheist thinkers- or Hitchen's and Dawkins].

 

Many times these various fields of study are too  much for the average believer to feel like he can engage in- in an intelligent way- and ‘win’ the argument for the Christian view.

 

But church history has a long- and very successful- track record doing this very thing.

 

A few weeks back I did about 5 posts or so on Philosophy- a field I like to study. But if you do too many of those posts at one time- then it can get a little heavy [and boring!] So I try to break it up by only doing so many at a time. The same goes for Theology- Church History- etc.

[1760] News and Philosophy

 

 

I want to try and cover a few subjects today- let’s start with some current world news. Yesterday I read an AP story about some cops who poured gas on the tents of the protestors- they then set them on fire.

 

13 protestors died- 100’s were burned severely. The doctors set up outside E.R. areas to treat the wounded. The cops walked in to the areas and shot people- right there.

 

I read a report where one of the doctors said he was shocked- he has never seen this happen before.

 

‘Now John- you shouldn’t make stuff up like this- even for a point!’

 

I’m not making it up- this did happen the past 2 days- in Zuccotti Park? In Oakland? No- in Tahrir square- Egypt.

 

The people who did this- the ruling military generals- are the people we ‘put’ in charge- by demanding the ouster of Mubarak- the former ‘king’.

 

Let’s head directly west on this northern tip of the African continent. Libya.

 

On the same news page- they had a story about the capture of Seif- Gadhaffi’s most famous son. They caught him trying to cross the Libyan border into Niger. The same place Gadhaffi’s wife fled to earlier in the conflict.

 

His wife was about 7 months pregnant and she fled to save her unborn child. The ‘new leaders’ that have our support- they wanted her back in Libya- to stand ‘trial’ for crimes against humanity [they would have killed her!].

 

So the other day they caught the son. The rebel faction that caught him will not turn him over to the ‘transitional government’ in Tripoli [the capitol] because they want to try him themselves [there is absolutely no order in Libya].

 

Now- the son- like the dad- has been indicted on ‘crimes against humanity’ by the world Court in The Hague.

 

These ‘indictments’ are tools the U.S. and other NATO allies use to justify going after one bad guy [and his wife and kids] while installing other bad guys- who are often just as bad- or actually worse!

 

So this puppet court has the kid indicted. The puppet govt. in the capitol of Tripoli has said ‘the world court is a secondary court- we do not recognize you’!

 

So the actual leaders- THE ONES WE BACKED- are saying ‘screw you world court- we will try the kid ourselves’. And the faction that caught the kid is saying ‘screw you leaders in Tripoli- we will try him here- in our region’ and the U.S. [and Fahreed Zakariah- a CNN talking head] have said ‘look how wonderful Obama has handled Libya and Egypt- not like Bush’.

 

Wonderful? Burning protestors to death- ruling Libya like some back water Mexican drug cartel? This thing is sad- and our involvement in it is even sadder.

 

Okay- let’s try and transition a bit.

 

In the last Philosophy post I hit on the 10^th-14^th century development of modern thought- today I want to jump into the 16^th-18^th centuries. Like I said in a previous post- after the Renaissance and the Reformation and the great scientific revolution- you had the world in somewhat of a tailspin.

 

 What I mean is for hundreds of years people trusted in the old institutions [like the Catholic Church] to tell them what was true or false- then with the development of all these modern movements people began questioning stuff.

 

Was it good to question things? Sure. But some challenged the very foundations of thought and knowing [called Epistemology] and went a bit too far.

 

Some thinkers went  back to the thought of Plato [400 years BC] and said that the mind is the main source of all knowledge- these were the 17^th century Rationalists.

 

Rationalism- as a philosophy- was an outgrowth of all the great strides that man was making in all these other areas of life. The Scientific Revolution totally challenged the age old beliefs of many in the church.

 

Math became a sort of new ‘god’. How so? As science invented the Microscope and Telescope- man was able for the first time to peer deeply into the heavens- and to see deeply into the microscopic world.

 

As the great minds [Copernicus] showed us that the Universe was different than what we thought [Heliocentric versus Geocentric] man was able to do mathematical calculations and to say that a specific planet or star [or Comet] would show up at an exact date- or spot- and Walla- it would happen [you could look thru the Telescope and sure enough the math was right- the object that was calculated to be there- was.]

 

These calculations were mathematical formulas- so math began to be seen as the new religion in many ways.

 

There are even some thinkers in the modern day that still say the only ‘real truth’ that exists is mathematical formulas. Yeah- one guy wrote an entire book on the subject- the problem? Well- his book was not written in math- but words.

 

Yes- even the extreme deniers of Objective truth do make mistakes.

 

Now- what’s wrong with rationalism? Of course being rational is okay- but the philosophy itself denied real Objective truth. Truth that corresponds to some other ‘outside’ reality.

 

This form of thinking [rejecting outside reality] is called Relativism/Subjectivism. While there is some truth to all the various fields of thought- yet extreme Relativism denies ‘reality’ as most of us understand the term.  There was a strong resistance to the 17^th century rationalists- we call this Philosophy Empiricism.

 

The main thinker in this field was John Locke. Locke lived most of his life in the 17^th century- but his thought laid the foundation for the 18^th century Empiricist.

 

This philosophy says that the mind does indeed play a major role in the knowledge of things- but this knowledge does not originate in the mind [Plato] but in the ‘thing’ itself [Aristotle- remember when we covered these men? Plato was an idealist- Ideas were more real than matter. Aristotle was a Realist- closer to the thought of Locke].

 

Locke developed a theory called the Correspondence theory- that truth that the Mind discovers corresponds to real things that actually exist apart from the mind.

 

Locke was a practicing doctor- and most of the other thinkers of the day had room to speculate about reality in a way that Locke could not.

 

He lived in a real world with real patients who had real symptoms- in a nutshell Locke had to diagnose his patients based on his findings- he could not deny that there was a real problem- he had to have his ‘feet on the ground’ [based in reality] while engaging with his head up high.

 

Okay- I think we’ll end with this. Maybe you can go back and read some of my previous posts on this subject- just to become a little more familiar with it.

 

As Christians- we are not ‘required’ to know Philosophy- or current events- or science- but it helps us engage the culture when we do educate ourselves in these areas.

 

Go slow in learning [not too slow!] and try and see how the Christian Worldview agrees with- or rejects certain aspects of these different felids of thought.

 

Most Christians would reject Rationalism as a Philosophy- because it denies real objective truth- it says truth is relative- whatever the mind can conceive- or think- can be defined as truth [Unicorns?]

 

Biblical truth is based on real historic events- 1^st Corinthians chapter 15 says that if we deny the physical  resurrection of Christ- a real event- then our faith is in vain.

 

Christians base their faith on a real historic event- not simply on a belief system.

Note- Please do me a favor, those who read/like the posts- re-post them on other sites as well as the site you read them on-  Copy text- download video links- make complete copies of my books/studies and posts- everything is copyrighted by me- I give permission for all to copy and share as much as you like- I just ask that nothing be sold. We live in an online world- yet- there is only one internet- meaning if it ever goes down- the only access to the teachings are what others have copied or downloaded- so feel free to copy and download as much as you want- it’s all free-

 

Note- I have many web sites- at times some question whether I’m a ‘bot’ because I do post a lot.

I am not a ‘bot’- I’m John- so please- if you are on the verge of deleting something- my contact email is ccoutreach87@gmail.com - contact me first- thank you- John
