The Facts and Logic to Which Logos-Lovers Submit
Many trad-minded Christians pride themselves on submitting to the authority of fact and logic, which they often refer to as the Logos and then equate with Jesus.
They claim that this submission to the authority of facts and logic guides all of their acts and behavior and proves their allegiance to Christ. Furthermore, they vehemently deny any suggestion that this sacred stance of theirs may “in fact” be leftist in inclination or, at the very least, easily manipulable by the left.
Case in point—the assassination of the so-called right-wing political activist that occurred over a month ago.
Within minutes of the event, the media lit up in its usual manipulative manner, encouraging the public to take a side on the “issue.”
Within hours, the media had succeeded in convincing those on the so-called right that the left was out to kill every single one of them.
Many logos-loving Christians and other self-professed “rightists” fell for the blatant manipulation and behaved like the push-button automatons the left know them to be.
They enthusiastically assumed the role the left had predetermined for them by heartily contributing to the psychotic and spiritual contagion the left had generated -- to the point that many trad Christians exuberantly encouraged their supposed rightist brothers-in-arms to “gird their loins” because the left was indeed out to kill them all.
In light of the recent event described above, logos-loving Christians would do well to ask themselves a few germane questions concerning their supposed submission to facts, logic, and Jesus Christ.
Those on the right are supposedly aware of the leftist control of the media. Why then do they insist on submitting to the “facts” in leftist narratives in precisely the way the leftist narrative instructs them to do?
In connection with that, how does such willful submission to leftist narratives and "facts" prevent one from being a leftist?
Experience informs us that fomenting hatred and fear is an essential component of any leftist narrative. The recent assassination was no exception. Knowing this, why did the logos-lovers actively and energetically submit and contribute to the fomenting of hatred and fear? Where, exactly, did they find the logic in that?
Logos-lovers insist that everyone tests his private notions against his apprehensions of fact, trusting that they are more or less veridical. How did the logos-lovers test their private notions against the supposed facts of the recent assassination narrative? Moreover, where, precisely, did they locate the veridicality in such tests?
As stated above, many trad-minded Christians pride themselves on submitting to the authority of fact and logic, which they often refer to as the Logos and then equate with Jesus; however, their thinking and behavior suggest that they are far more prone to submitting to the authority of leftist “facts” and manipulative leftist narratives than they are to anything remotely related to the Logos they promote and hold so dear.
