Hi Texasdave. I see you survived our minor attacks on the way you think. I knew you would.
I often hear people at Volconvo debating that the leftys are using the media to brainwash people, while the other half thinks the right wing is using the same media to brainwash people. This is rather normal around here.
Paul (I think it was) wrote about "unseen powers and principalities" that operate to decieve people or to promote evil stuff. And you, being a bible person, would be expected to echo that teaching.
According to science antheism must be an effect of a cause. Not sure if the cause is the one Paul imagined. But secular ideas are promoted in many ways just like Christian ideas are promoted.
In my school of thought I believe we should not look outside for things to blame - we should look inside at our own attitudes and the ways we react to worldly conditions - instead. Forget the escape goats by not letting people get your goat.
We cannot pluck a speck of deception from another's perception if we have a rock pile of deceptions in our perception blocking our view.
