S3 Ep46 The Ever-Changing Virtues of the Virtue Signalers
Western societies today are being suffocated and rotted by millions who believe they are virtuous. They hold, what they believe, are foundational truths and virtues, yet far too often when those truths or virtues do not fit their unspoken motives, they abandon them without hesitation (but often with excuse). Recently, former Press Secretary (now TV news host) scoffed at the idea that any Democrat would support abortion in the ninth month or in the birth canal... until she was barraged by Democrats reminding her that abortion up to birth (and even beyond) is now the NEW virtuous truth. She immediately abandoned her "obvious" virtue and adopted the opposite.
Plagiarism and genocidal hate are two of the worst crimes an academic can commit, yet when the guilty academic is on the right "team," all seemingly rock solid virtues are tossed like yesterday's newspaper. Academia is built in the shifting sands of man's selfish opinion as is almost all of what's left of western civilization.
In the book Animal Farm, the pigs would amend "truths" to fit their changing value system, which was no value system at all. They merely wanted power and they used the rest of the animals to achieve it my changing "truth" and making them believe they always believed that way.
This sad disease is not only evident in politics, it is evident all through theology. We again remind ourselves that no pastor, no denomination, no local church will stand with us before the Lord at the judgment of our service, Your theology is yours. "Study to show yourselves approved unto God, a workman who needs not be ashamed, rightly handling [cutting] the Word of truth.' God is also not interested in manmade virtues or polls.
We must be careful of self-justification using the shifting values of mankind or for a desire to be thought well of or approved my our fellow man. We must establish a core set of values, based on God's words, and be determined not to move from them, come what may.
