One of the clearest pictures of the failure of western humanity
is its devotion to all things political.
I was raised to live fully by apolitical parents and during an era when
all politicians were suspect. My parents
taught that The Personal God demanded that I live a life of goodness and
service while western culture, casting off any god, left only government to determine
how I should live. Today politics dominate
western culture and serve as the only model by which we measure our piety. What is most troubling is how quickly our
youth take up the banner of politics as the only hope for a fair and just
society.
