Default Re: Politics and the Church

Find fault in the article, not the writer or the publisher. Otherwise it is a classic misdirect. A true ad hominem.

From a truly Christian perspective, virtually every source of news is tainted in some way. Fox News, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, BBC, Huffington Post, the Drudge Report . . . .

Even Christianity Today. It has a slant that is opposed to whole segments of Christianity and is therefore carrying a bias that is not always favorable toward the truth, but toward the bias.

So what is a person to do?

Think. Hear the report. Observe. Think.

Don't just accept. And don't think the source that is biased in your direction is always right. I know mine isn't. I almost can't stomach them anymore.
