The "Secular Right" Solution is Too Easy

Coming out of the mainstream media "box," the first reaction is often to simply start believing what one observes with ones own eyes. This often leads to acceptance of human bio-diversity, but also generally a rejection of rampant and apparent error and hypocrisy.

It often stops there though, and simply rests on an anger at the obvious deceit. It is too easy to simply observe and state the obvious and to go no further. It's a trap.

It's like the ol' Plato's Cave analogy: one only makes it so far out of the cave. The secular rightest is the one pointing out that the shadows on the wall are rather poorly done, the descriptions aren't too accurate, and that he can do much better ones!

That is, it doesn't actually take him outside the cave.

To get outside the cave requires religion, namely Christianity. Yet this problem is setup in such a way that by taking that first step to secular rightism, one may permanently reject Christianity because they fail to understand what it is. Mainstream culture has thoroughly hijacked and corrupted the Christian name so that most "Christian" institutions are entirely secular leftist, with a thin sprinkling of Christian vocabulary and ritual.

So many secular right are "out of the frying pan and into the fire" so-to-speak. They are stuck in a state that has a propensity to increase anger, hostility, and bitterness at the total "hypocrisy" of society and its "stupid" or "ignorant" behavior - the idea that, if simply shown the reality of the situation, they can build a new or better society correctly on secular values.

The problem is, of course, that secular leftism isn't merely ignorant or misinformed! It isn't just making stupid mistake after stupid mistake, but it is primarily anti-Christian. It oppose the way, the truth, and the life. It purposefully inverts the good, the beautiful, and the truth. That is, it is evil - and until/if the secular right recognizes the spiritual dimension, that is the true root of the problem, their efforts will always be fruitless and misdirected (and even, quite possibly, harmful to their souls).
