‘One Nation, under God, Indivisible,’ once marked a civilization in which each member thrived with the purpose, conviction and the certitude of comprehensive personal character and organic thought.

God is the origin of this apodictic being and, widespread, a civilized people.

The absence of God is the origin of a relativistic being and, widespread, a disordered people…leaving us all susceptible to demonic tendencies that are no longer rare and isolated but instead are now decimating our culture with regularity and normality.

We all see the symptoms, and the symptoms we fruitlessly attack.

We also see the causes, yet the causes we willfully ignore.

After each incident of mass murder, government malfeasance, school shooting, opioid death, child abuse, sexual assault, financial crime, youth suicide…we feign incredulity, pass yet more laws, and blame everyone and everything save the one obvious reality that now so thoroughly defiles our culture–the veneration of our immorality and the conscious rejection of our God.

Such is the darkest folly of our post-modern American civilization as we contort that which establishes God’s existence into that which denies it—the radical rejection of human consciousness and its surety—objective truth.

At the core of this Conservative ideology, the individual and, by projection civilization, is consummated, not constrained, by objective truth.

When one commends the whole of his integrity to the legions, however, he becomes a slave to collective relativism and mere chattel to the master of his affirmed immorality–and he chaperones his culture’s descent.
