So to confront the programme in its entirety, one needs to look at the Bible afresh, again; look at the LC philosopher's stone, and then look at the word of God. Here follows today's attempt.

These word ring true. In the LC, they talk a lot about 'vision'. When outcome deviates from the supposed vision (as it always does), then there is always talk of needing to see a 'fresh' vision.
In all of this, what is never called into question are the ideals themselves. That is because the vision/ideals are percieved to be absolutes.
