The Shrew View: Careless Social Justice

Activism is being waged with manic fervor. Is globalism the new secular religion for our country? Perhaps. It is certainly worth a deeper look.

In my June 6, 2021 blog post, “Critical Theory Can’t Compete With Our Diversity”, I point out how it is disabling to our society to form people into groups. The BIG LIE is CRT (Critical Race Theory). The BIG TRUTH is to love your neighbor, stay Liberty minded and keep the next generation FREE.

To be diverse is to show a great deal of variety and difference. When people are separated into groups, whole identities are actually removed to form a collective mindset. It is the collective mindset that chains a person to the collective action. Why would a Liberty minded country put groups ahead of individuals? Politics and power is why…Grouping people into categories is the easiest way to highlight differences and allow people seeking power to energize a base. However, differences are what make individuals interesting to know. Without differences our country and our world would be a very uninteresting place. Whole cultures would be turned into one big global culture where individuals would either divide off into dictated categories or be left behind to never assimilate thus remaining as outcasts in society.

As I look at what is happening in America today, I believe the divisions I witness among people are becoming increasingly careless and nonsensical. These divisions are happening in only one political party though, the Democratic Party. To be with this party you must ally yourself with groups that are claiming to be oppressed, but these groups cannot seem to find ONE individual to represent them or their political party! This is proof to me that sadly they cannot exist as individuals because these people thrive in collective chaos. What then is the goal of the Democratic Party? Perhaps you can say that the goal is world peace through having all humanitarian needs met, but how can this be done without clear leadership? It can’t.

Pointless Preaching

This is where the religion comes in. A religion typically requires belief in an omniscient and omnipresent System. But today’s activists don’t want to be oppressed by clear beliefs or systems. They would rather obliterate them. What is then left? A vacuum. And what will this vacuum be filled with? A type of secular system that will generate new beliefs…But it’s a circular route! No one group or person for that matter will ever be happy with the results, because humans require certainty to flourish in the physical world.

Secularism requires no religious or spiritual basis, therefore the human soul cannot thrive within its boundaries and will wither without the Truth of God’s Love. Secularism as a basis for global power makes no sense…Humans are not empty vessels to be numbed and manipulated, yet that is what it will take to turn the human race into good globalists.

The activists on our college campuses and in our town squares have been numbed. Their causes are not socially accepting and their minds are not critical. The justice they seek is nonexistent because it has no leader to give it meaning. Will a leader appear? If one does we can be sure that he or she will be very tyrannical in their scope of action. It will be a secular worshiping of Satan.

Activists lack introspection because they will have you believe that Make America Great Again is the cult to be feared. In reality, today’s activists are the cult of American and Judeo-Christian destruction.

Houston, We Have A God Problem

As we mere mortals reach for the stars and the moons and the galaxies, we must first ground ourselves in Truth for it is this Truth that paved our way to the stars, moons and galaxies.

God’s creation is an orderly approach to what then become the creations of men and women. Notice that there is nothing humankind can create that isn’t from an existing element which only God could create. In nature, only elements up to atomic number 94 exist; to go further, it is necessary to synthesise new elements in the laboratory. All synthetic elements are unstable, but they decay at widely varying rates: the half-lives of their longest-lived isotopes range from microseconds to millions of years.* Scientific methods are human made. We should not consider ourselves as God because only His creations, including you and me, are infinite.

Alternatively, the human mind is much more than a creation of God. Human kind can use the mind to imagine and act out a multitude of scenarios. The mind is chaotic and requires proper guidance. But who’s guidance? I believe it must be guidance by God. Hence the formation of the Torah, the Bible and other religious books and systems. ‘In the beginning was the Word’ means ‘at the beginning of everything, there was the entity we know as God, who embodied, and created, the rational principle on which everything is founded’. Divinely inspired Truth is the fundamental basis of human thought which lead to the natural rights ensconced in the U.S. Constitution. This is what makes us a free people in America.

Beware the man made “systems” that remove God’s meaning and purpose. Secular is non religious yet was never meant to be non God. Religion is a man made system for being with and relating to God as science is a man made system for being with and organizing God’s creation on earth. Likewise government is a man made system for organizing a community of humans. Humans are a creation of God which He saw as good. However humans have the capability of committing acts both good and bad which is why God also created boundaries by handing down The Word through prophets and articles like the 10 Commandments. This is where secularists and atheists always get stuck…The “separation” of church and state is not a clause in the Constitution. Instead the Constitution guarantees no establishment of one religion for the state or states https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/885/establishment-clause-separation-of-church-and-state … Belief in God and the individual’s practice of religion was sacrosanct.

Fix reason in her place…

We have taken this freedom for granted. We can witness this in the human chaos that is all around us. The frailty of the human spirit is reflected in the blatant rejection (“revolution”) of the boundaries of scientific methods, man’s laws and the constitutional limits all of which have been traditionalized in our secular world. This rejection has conditioned many people to believe in human made false gods such as climate change, critical race theory and party politics…Modern day golden idols shining as stars and moons and galaxies for those who worship them and attempt to control others through them. Man’s misuse of the military industrial complex is an unfortunate outcome of this Godless control.

Ground yourself by getting real with God. Place importance in objective truths. If your faith in God is weak then you are vulnerable to the evils, the false gods, the golden idols of our material world. You don’t need to follow a church or a preacher, but you do need to educate yourself with The Word by following a kind and humble path with similar seekers. God is Love, Light and the Way.
