No Authority

Whether the person or organization admits any Authority or not; whenever we believe a statement without checking the facts, we are under the Authority of the person(s) making the statement.

Think about about it: we are bombarded with information like no other culture in history. From the radio on our drive to work, to our coworkers giving us the low-down on the newest political situation. Periodicals, television and internet throw "facts" at us all day long. It would take us all of our sleeping hours to look into everything we came into contact with that very day. So, some of us believe only what is given with the best presentation; from charismatic speakers, attractive persons, powerful organizations, or rhetorical masters.

AND YET, most people in our culture are too proud to admit that we are under any Authority at all, like we are endowed as Americans to Supreme Independent Thought, while they fall for every well-crafted argument thrown at them.

God Bless us all
