It’s been a long month. Between battling a heck of a cold I had to do a good amount of long overdue housecleaning at Fathers for Life. (For some of the results of that see: [1] folc.ca , [2] bruderheim.org , and [3] bruderheim-rea.ca )

It is nice to be able to get back at trying to clear up the mounting backlog of mail.  Here is one of the things I found this morning:

The Social Gospel of the early 20th century shifted the focus of many church leaders from God’s unchanging Truth to the world’s pliable ideals.

After all, if some people can’t or won’t live up to and by those standards, then something must be wrong with those standards; so, let’s move the goal posts, right?

That way we’ll find neither excellence nor satisfaction nor salvation, although we will find mediocrity, underachievement, social chaos and worse.

It is amazing that those objectives were deliberately imposed on and implemented in the developed nations to cause their systematic deconstruction, but that was and still is the plan; and it is being made to work.
