My conservative friends are 100% convinced that he is innocent and she is lying. My liberal friends are 100% convinced that he is guilty and she is telling the truth. Everyone is sure they know exactly what happened or didn’t happen, and everyone’s opinion falls right in line with their political preferences. It’s all so predictable. Whatever we think will bolster our cause we call “truth”. Then we turn around and hate everyone who disagrees with us. This is how our society now operates, and this is what we are now modeling to the next generation. We don’t need to blindly continue down this path. We can choose to change course. Does anyone dare to consider the fact that things might not have happened the way our political preferences tell us they must have happened? Truth is not dictated by political preference. Truth is not determined by starting with how we want the story to end and then working backwards. As a society we have abandoned the pursuit of truth. We’ve exchanged it for a gospel of political expediency. We’ve “exchanged the truth of God for a lie”. History will remember us as the generation that told the world that truth doesn’t matter.
