07/05/18 HALF TRUTHS ARE LIES
I don't usually share from Youtube, and I don't like arguments about the "Civil War," but this video can be helpful to the open minded person and it is an example of the point I try to make in my following post. There is a Biblical principle (actually a law) that applies to this problem. We need to know both sides of an issue before we take sides.
Alert, the more Establishment the schooling, the more reason to question it, as an example, the popular "FACTS" concerning War Between the States.
I AM AGAINST SLAVERY
I shouldn't have to say this, but because most people have swallowed the lies of revisionist history and the establishment (as seen in the prevailing Northern prejudice against the South and Southerners) regional pride and disdain for others has not only revised history but misrepresented those who do not share their misinformed and provincial viewpoints.
It is easy to make decisions when only one side of a proposition is presented or only one side is "credited" as being true. However, knowing the whole story provides the opportunity for honest evaluation. A major part of the problem with the union of Political Correctness and the spread of Islam is that facts suffer first and foremost. As Liberals whitewash Islamic history and seek to tarnish Biblical Christianity and Western society, there is less knowledge and understanding about the Bible, about the real Jesus, about salvation, about Church History, and as a result there is a greater wall of resistance to the liberating message of Christ, both in America's young people and those who are coming to this country.
THIS VIDEO IS NOT AN ARGUMENT FOR SLAVERY, again, I have to say this to penetrate the hard hardheadedness of people who have been brainwashed, or brain poisoned against facts concerning the War Between the States.
I have two reasons for sharing this video.
1. I get tired of hearing misinformed and misled people, including "intellectuals," automatically pigeonhole me and other Southerners as being racists and being an ill informed subspecies. That mentality is based on arrogance, misinformation, prejudice and self importance.
2. It is important to know that those in power often change history and facts in order to accomplish their own agenda. This video demonstrates this problem as it relates to the rewriting of history. This is not a claim that there were no problems or sins in the South or in Southerners, including the atrocity of slavery, which was a RECOGNIZED NATIONAL REALITY that had existed as a law of the United States of America and continued to exist as a law in the United States of America after Lincoln's, Emancipation Proclamation. Yes, there were problems in the South and the North.
I am not sharing this video to whitewash evil in anyone. I am sharing this video to demonstrate that it is possible to tell half truths and baldfaced lies, convincing people and agitating people against actual facts and reality. Demonizing while being guilty of the same sins or crimes is deception and falsification. These are also sins.
One of the things I like about this video is that documentation is clearly shared, and the presentation of the video actually presents both sides of the issue. However, those who want to hide truth do not tell the whole truth. Sometimes it is because they are deceived. But regardless of their motives, "half truthers" are "mis-leaders."
DON'T BE SUCKERED IN BY NICE APPEARANCE, HIGH SOUNDING IDEAS AND ESTABLISHMENT SCHOOLING.
