Tired of soft padding around the issue I've been taking the bull by the horns but it's starting to feel more like I've taken the tiger by the tail.
The search for "truth" started as a political research project (which continues) in an attempt to determine if Obama really is as evil as some say he is. I mean, evil is a very strong word. They weren't saying he's misguided or wrong or selfishly chasing the dream of power which everyone knows corrupts. They are saying he is evil. A liar. Knowingly leading America to a place it is too asleep to notice until it is too late and our liberties are unrecognizable. These are strong and harsh accusations that raise more questions than I have time to list here and now but I knew I needed to find out for myself. Even if the arguments sounded true, the people saying them, when looked at en mass, appear like conspiracy theory loonies. (And therein lays another path of study - Why do they appear like loonies? Beginning to believe in the legend of the liberal media, I am.) My search has led to me websites like www.wmd.com and Molotov Mitchell's "For The Record" a compelling video series that seriously cracked open my view to a wider gaze.
I began my research when the controversial Arizona Immigration Law began to start such a flurry of media attention. I started to peel back the layers of the onion and I found it exhausting to discover the layers underneath just lead to more layers and everyone is selling something and most people have an agenda and a filter through which they run everything. Their goal is to sell their perspective - not to find an absolute truth.
On tougher days when truth is so elusive it seems to me that the only truth I can be really sure of is that the earth and all of creation is just that. Created - clearly with intelligent design. It's all just too perfect to have birthed out of chaos. So that is where I start. Back to basics. Just keep getting tired of going back to the starting line.
Creator - help me find THE truth in a world where so many are lying or aren't even asking questions at all.
