131: Exhortation: The Government Betrayed You, So What?

1 year ago

With great passion, people across the internet and the world will try to convince us not to trust the government. To some, this is a novel concept, but not to many. The assumption that we can trust something as vast and complicated as the government as a whole is itself a head-scratcher.

At the same time, from time to time, and for some, with increasing rapidity, we are seeing a breakdown of trust between the citizens and their government. To end there, however, is to be consumed by cynicism. Even when we are betrayed by one person, does it justify that we throw out all trust for all mankind?

And this applies to worldviews and beliefs as well. When we see the cracks in our own worldview, do we abandon any pursuit of a firm foundation?

That is the message in this Monday Exhortation: what to do when a failed foundation collapses beneath us.
