Dealing With Truth Decay
Jerry was asking George if he told his female friend the truth when he (George) was describing himself (George) to the girl. George responded: "Yes, I did" and Jerry replied "As you see it" ... Later in the diner Jerry was leaving to tell his female friend some truisms that had not been told before. As Jerry was leaving the diner George pointed a finger at him and said: "remember, it's not a lie if you believe it."
Recently there have been some tragedies regarding falling trees. Just this week I was reading The Intelligencer and there was a long article about trees and their health. One Arborist declares: "A tree can look perfectly healthy but be structurally unsound (Compare to Christians) About 75% of tree failures are due to root problems."
Teacher espouses: "Class, there are no absolutes in life." Three students speak of creation, sin and the bible. The teacher states again: "Well class, we must conclude that there are no absolutes in life" and then a young girl in the back of the class says: "Except that ONE right teacher?"
