On your ‘Marx’, Get Set…

For as bats’ eyes are to daylight so is our intellectual eye to those truths which are, in their own nature, the most obvious of all – Aristotle.

Reasoning (to be valid) cannot be denied. Some say all human ideals are illusions and human loves are ‘biological by-products’. Besides reasoning, we also make moral judgements. We ‘ought’ or ‘ought not’ do this. No one pays attention to moral judgements, which can be shown to come from non-moral and non-rational causes. The Freudian and Marxist both attack morality on this ground.

They forget though that what discredits particular moral judgements must equally discredit moral judgement as a whole (or has basic philosophy been forgotten?). If the fact that men have such ideas as ‘ought’ and ‘ought not’, can fully explained by irrational and non-moral causes, then those ideas are themselves illusions. Here is their escape – all ideas are impulses, which we have been conditioned to feel. Yet, at the sight of social injustice they write like men of genius... proclaiming what is good (better pay) and denouncing what is bad (wuk-up culture).

This is strange though. Since their thoughts…are themselves the impulses by which nature has conditioned we Homo sapiens. It says nothing about any objective right or wrong – so why all the fuss? Maybe they forget that when they write, for that is their glory. To hold a philosophy, which excludes humanity; yet try desperately to remain human. Trying to escape from their difficulty…they flatly contradict themselves.

‘Opiate of the masses’? A true ‘Marx-man’ indeed…always off-target. 2 Corinthians 4:3-4, comes to pass on this occasion, doesn’t it? That is how powerful the Word of God is. Just like He said in Isaiah 55:11. As the world turns…the web continues to be woven… http://www.religion-online.org/ …Go! Can’t run from the truth though…can we?
