Today we are watching the sleep of reason, and we are witnessing the creation of monsters. Monsters that come in the form of antisemitism. We now have an answer for how the German people could listen to Hitler and not realize the demonic origin of such a genocidal view of people.
Reason and common decency have been deceived and degenerated and have descended into barbaric behavior much like what we have witnessed by Hamas - pure evil. What is puzzling today is why there are Jews who vote for a political party that seems to have a difficult time rejecting such evil ideas. Perhaps Irving Kristol was right in his assessment in his 1999 essay, “On the Political Stupidity of the Jews.” Is that reasonable?
Monsters also come in the form of LGBTQ+ ideology. Let’s be clear - it is not only a divergent form of behavior in all of the natural world, but more importantly an affront to God almighty the creator. But today it has been normalized and thought by some to be a “gift from God.” Is that reasonable?
The French philosopher, Renan, was perhaps on to something in his observation that the only thing that can give you a conception of the infinite is the extent of human stupidity.
Mark it well, the changing of circumstances cannot repair the defect of character. It is only the power of rebirth and regeneration, the receiving of eternal life in Christ Jesus that makes lasting and eternal changes in both our character now and our destiny forever.
The song writer was right, “People need the Lord.”
