america the "fableous"

“…The heart of the sons of men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live…”
(Ecclesiastes 9.3)
 
Wherewith shall I come before the LORD,
and bow myself before the high God?
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good;
and what doth the LORD require of thee,
but to do justly, and to love mercy,
and to walk humbly with thy God?
​(Micah 6.6, 8)

america the “fableous”

The amount of misinformation distributed and the degree to which it is accepted in our present post-truth era age is quite literally Biblical in proportion. The Apostle could have been speaking of times such as ours when he warned,
 
“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables” (2 Tim. 4.3-4).
 
However, even he seems not to have foreseen the suicidal aspects that much of America’s present society contains within its distain for reality and truth. Take, for example, the following reporting.
 
“Tennessee’s Board of Medical Examiners unanimously adopted in September a statement that said doctors spreading COVID misinformation — such as suggesting that vaccines contain microchips — could jeopardize their license to practice.
 
“‘I’m very glad that we’re taking this step,’ Dr. Stephen Loyd, the panel’s vice president, said at the time. ‘If you’re spreading this willful misinformation, for me it’s going to be really hard to do anything other than put you on probation or take your license for a year. There has to be a message sent for this. It’s not OK’…
 
“But before any physicians could be reprimanded for spreading falsehoods about COVID-19 vaccines or treatments, Republican lawmakers threatened to disband the medical board.
 
“The growing tension in Tennessee between conservative lawmakers and the state’s medical board may be the most prominent example in the country. But the Federation of State Medical Boards, which created the language adopted by at least 15 state boards, is tracking legislation introduced by Republicans in at least 14 states that would restrict a medical board’s authority to discipline doctors for their advice on COVID” (“Republicans Are Pressuring Medical Boards to Let COVID Misinformation Slide,” Blake Farmer, Truthout).
 
Yes, this goes beyond Paul. We must really look to the Book of Revelation for anything as insanely anti-truth and anti-Christ as this contempt for truth, for it is truly apocalyptic.
