Most Americans make false assumptions about most everything simply because the liberal philosophy seldom asks “why.” It only asks “what.” One can take almost any issue. Take the issue of drugs. Few in the liberal establishment are asking “why.” Most of them only ask “what.” What can we do about this problem? So, we dispense free needles to try to clean up the mess. No one asks “why” we are having unwanted pregnancies; they only ask “what” we can do about it. The answer they come up with is abortion. We are asking “what” when we should be asking “why” about these major moral issues of life.
In this week’s edition of PathLight, Dr. T. D. Worthington poses the question of what might happen if the people, the politicians, and the pastors of the United States would stand up and stop asking “what?” Rather than asking what new laws and regulations we need to fix a problem; but rather ask, “why” did this happen in the first place. “Why are we having problems we didn’t used to have?” Maybe then we could find the prescription needed for our land.
