It confirms what I thought. It's the great humanistic pill that nearly all will swallow...
It counts on two things, that the human mind is the ultimate criterion for knowledge and understanding, and that society will determine what clear thinking is.
It also finishes beautifuly with the ideaology of the "collective future."
Wow, thanks for that, I'll be sharing it right away with people who know what the future holds.
Well I'm not sure what video you were watching to draw that conclusion, or even if you bothered to sit through the whole five minutes, but never mind. Try this one: video
Same deal. The video would have no appeal if it did not contain essential truths, and they're in there alright.
Rational thinking is expected of God, but it is not to be the ultimate criterion for authority on truth. The Bible is that standard. It doesn't matter how misrepresented it is, and little it is read and understood, or how many religions or individuals are hypocritical, it remains on its own, and men will be judged by its standards, regardless of their knowledge of it.
It only takes 9 months to read it.
There is no doubt that many religions pose irrationality, in creation theories or whatever. But we are not to throw the baby out with the bath water.
Don't throw the Bible out with religion, it actually warns against false religous systems and deluded individuals, but it also warns against the fake battle between religion and science, and how that battle ends in world unity against God.
