Stop Stealing My Philosophy! You've Got Your Own...

Too many people borrow Christian philosophy without knowing it. Whenever someone says, "That's not fair!" or "That was mean," or "You owe me this," they have just stolen Christian principles. They have no foundation for saying any of these things and the fact that they do say them is a testament to their inconsistency. They can't live like an atheist. No one can. Any consistent atheist would commit suicide. However, man was designed with worth, morals, and a desire to fellowship with God. That's all built in and it can't be escaped. This is something that non-Christians take for granted. Their default mode is the way God made them and so they fall into acting on those principles, but if you asked them, they'd outright deny the principles. This can be clearly seen in politics. People rage when their rights are "infringed." Guess what, if the State gives you your rights, they can sure as heck take them away! But if God gives you your rights, then they can't be infringed. Oh. Wait. You don't believe in God... fail. The government owes no man any rights or any fairness. Yet, when they act like they do, it's because they're accidently operating in reality (crazy, huh?). There can be no liberty apart from the foundation of Christianity. Sure, God never says in the Bible that "Thou shalt give the people the right to speak freely," but that right can never be demanded or upheld without the Bible. A short summary of my point here is that God never guaranteed the right to free speech, but you can't have free speech apart from God.

God Bless,
Stanley
