If there is one thing lacking in the supposed Christian church in the West, it is this: discernment.

Oft-quoted but seldom-employed apostolic wisdom goes like this per Romans 12:1-2: “I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

Did you catch that verb? You know, the one about what is required to know and do the will of the holy wise God? Discern. Just in case you missed it. Discern. Did I say discern?

But if you imbibe the talking points of pagan culture and Superbowl adverts about Jesus “getting you,” you’d come away believing there’s never any need to discern, to think, to distinguish God’s light from Satan’s darkness. Just embrace abomination. That’s what the dumb and dumber do. Come on, man. Get in line. Embrace the zeitgeist. Don’t be a stick in the mud. Be a tranny. Celebrate polyamory. Be a man in a dress. Have multiple partners and be ‘blessed’ by the pronoun-mafia critter with a stole and blue hair. That’s what progress is, don’t you know?

No discernment. That’s where we are. Critical thinking has been vanquished. The DEI-employed fools are flying the planes into the ground, but at least they checked all the blocks about group identity politics. It does not matter that your pilot cannot fly the aircraft; what matters is that (s)he had purple hair, identified as non-binary, dressed like a carnival employee, and posted about climate change.

Welcome to Clown World. Trannies shooting up the churches and schools, the pundits doubling down on victim status, the churches hiding their light under a basket, and the salt being trod upon by the growing darkness.

“From dumb to dumber” does not even begin to describe the state of affairs. Discernment is not a word the church appears to have ever even read, much less practiced. Enjoy the show. You’ve earned it.
