Hey, everyone. I just want to say two things about all the “did you hear?” stories that keep coming up.
The FIRST thing is: even trusted “sources” can relay bad information.
What you hear might actually be factual, but information can be true and false at the same time when context and interpretation are skewed. Remember, even your “sources” have world views and agendas. If you cannot go to the ORIGINAL source of the information and see for yourself what is being reported, be careful what you repeat.
But here’s the SECOND thing, and it’s really, really, important. Don’t be blind to the obvious while in search of the hidden.
We are so likely to jump on the bandwagons of juicy, new conspiracy theories that we will ride them off the cliff of insanity, ignoring the obvious street signs and billboards as we zip past.
I say all this because despite all the hidden agendas, secret societies, and billionaire evil donors out there, it DOES make a difference for whom you and I vote or support. OBJECTIVE MORALITY based on an Immutable Standard does exist, and it is our job as citizens to be the first to vocally and politically advocate for it.
Political parties and their candidates are always quick to tell us what we want to hear, but their track records are not secret. As long as we don’t erase history, all we have to do is look back to determine what kind of future will unfold. Therefore, more important than bringing to light dark agendas and conspiracies, we should not be silent when fundamental, foundational Truths are destroyed right before our eyes.
Ultimately, we are not responsible for the plots hatched around boiling cauldrons, but we will be held responsible for how we steward the obvious.
