While those on The Programmer’s side work to filter out impurities, the forces of death try to filter out anything good and decent. Good, decent ideas get in the way of driving more of us into greater slavery.
Public educators have long since succeeded in filtering out all Christian teachings from their classrooms. The idea that children do better in two-parent homes has, likewise, been filtered out.
Historical events and personages that may give credibilty to Christian thought are filtered out. Rebellions and revolutions in favor of actual freedom from government are also filtered out.
Scientific knowledge is filtered so that the latest alarms can have credibity. People are intentionally undereducated, while being told that “this is the best-educated generation in history”. Self-esteem has replaced logic and accurate appraisal of skills.
So, filters work for good and evil. We must be sure to ask The Holy Wireless Connector to “open up our hearts and let the sun shine in” while filtering out lies and hate.
