I watched part of the National Geographic special on the 9-11 truth’ers Monday night! I managed to stay for about 30 of the 60 minutes. It was pure propaganda, so I watched “Loose Change” afterward to balance it out. You can watch that documentary for free on the internet and you will become angry over how our authorities murdered Americans! Of course, sanctioned murder has been going on since the dawn of time and even continues each day through the abortion industry. It doesn’t make it right and God will not excuse the perpetrators on judgment day! Wrong is wrong regardless of popular belief.
Popular beliefs have changed throughout history. The world being flat, bleeding people to remove the “bad blood”, baptism is necessary for salvation, etc. It’s hard to let go of something that you’ve always heard as fact. It can be one of those “kicks in the gut” when you suddenly realize that not just you, but a whole lot of people are wrong. Then, it gets scary if you’ve been one of the big promoters of the incorrect agenda. It’s a degree of sin thing, the teacher always carries more responsibility than the follower.
Most popular beliefs that are followed religiously are due to a lack of examining all the evidence. If you stay in the “village” and only read official village memos and news then your view is going to be skewed badly. Be willing to do some “opposition research”. See what the other side is talking about, at least listen to their argument. Your pounding the table drowns out everything. In the book of James, chapter one verse 19, it says, “You must understand this, my dear brothers. Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.”
If you live in “the village” and refuse to look at an issue truthfully then it’s your own fault. One day you’ll look around and notice the village population is much smaller… not so many on your side anymore. Yeah, there’s a reason for that, its called the truth, and "the truth will set you free".
