Austria2 months ago - Subjectivism and shootings.
I found Rob on You Tube. He was discussing C. S. Lewis’ Abolition of Man. An ad interrupted, as often happens on yt. It was a mother who lost a child at Sandy Hook Elementary. I was stunned. Lewis book indirectly predicted these things would happen if subjectivity were to rule the roost. The solution is to return to the Tao, to objective values. “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and soul and love your neighbor as yourself.
Thanks Rob.
