This is very helpful as we wade through the endless number of voices and perspectives available today. It harmonises with Spurgeon’s observation that discernment isn’t the ability to tell right from wrong, rather to tell right from almost right.
Excellent! Most of the questions asked in the Leftist media are precisely of the "I'm just asking questions" variety—or even more frequently, attempts to "lead the witness" to the interviewer's foregone conclusion. But one minor grammatical point: in the phrase "That’s where you see a subtle slide [sic] of hand," shouldn't "slide" instead be "sleight"? (Sleight of hand is the art of skillful deception, which is the subject at hand.)
This is an insightful read. It perfectly describes the cycle of cynical doubt in my head, in the face of any illuminating insight. In what order can I cover the Books discussed in this essay, to deal with this? I covered Revelation last night in a frenzy, inspired by the works of @eliasmeraz
Loved how this connects the serpent's question in Genesis to modern "just asking questions" tactics. The Pharisees false dilemmas trick still works because most people dunno they can reject the framing itself. I watched similar happen in a board meeting where someone kept asking "Is it A or B?" and everyone forgot C through Z existed til someone finally called it out.
Really appreciate this article. It is well done and helpful. I will be going over it a second time tomorrow to make sure I missed nothing.
This is excellent.
Excellent….
Amen and amen 🙏❤️

“Be an actual Berean” ! Very nice.
