Truth is disappearing in Western culture; in America too. If we do not believe in truth, real, objective, facts-whether-we-like-them-or-believe-them truth, then the edifice of our civilization crumbles. Our culture crumbles, then our nation inevitably will crumble. This sounds melodramatic and hyperbolic, but it is historically demonstrable. No truth, then no right or wrong, no fact or fiction, no beauty, no better or best, no certainty; When this happens, immoral actions increase, and sooner or later, government steps in to control, to oppress. Without truth, tyranny is possible, or inevitable, and America is flirting with all of this. Truth matters. From a Christian point of view, God is truth, the holy, righteous standard of all things good and true. Scripture says, "Buy the truth and do not sell it." For more from Dr. Rex M.
