When modernity
announced that the modern age was built by their guys,
the secularists, the Christians who believed them were way too easily duped.
There should have been less gullibility around here and more checking.
Secularism did not fill the houses with good things, did not dig the wells, and
did not create great and goodly cities (Dt. 6:10-11). The law required us to give
the glory to God for these good
things. Instead we have now fallen for the pomo [postmodern] lie that they are not actually
good things. The modernist says that “my power and the might of my hand has
gotten me this wealth” (Dt. 8:17). The pomo says, “Yeah, well,
to say that you can actually get water out of your wells is logocentric,
imperialistic, self-serving, and totalizing.” And the consistent Christian just
thanks Jesus for all the stuff.
