Living in a Post-Truth Culture

Discerning What Is Best with Dr Rex M Rogers

Modernity is now overlapped by Postmodernity. Where once people believed in objective truth and reason, now they believe in subjectivism and feelings. Many, especially the young, no longer believe truth is possible. They speak of "My truth" and "Your truth" as if reality plays favorites or facts are optional. This fundamental shift has produced a Post-Truth Culture, one in which uncertainty, anxiety, and nihilism are daily evident in the streets as people, again especially youth, cast about in chaos and alienation, protesting things that make no sense, shouting phrases that contradict decency, morality, and humanity. This is America 2024, the dawning perhaps of a new Dark Age. Yet Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life," and "the truth will set you free." There is still hope in Christ and always shall be. For more Christian commentary check my website at rexmrogers.com.
