Evil seems overpowering. Its appearance of power is there to attract worldly people.
The largest structure that the other side erects is government, and the biggest portion of most governments is “public” education. This empire of lost souls now stretches from pre-school to post-graduate studies. It is a sea of nearly unalloyed fraud that swallows endless years.
Any government’s educational system is designed to produce people who will support that government. No surprise. As governments sinks into greater lunacies, its educators teach proportionately more bizarre things. Students must be dumbed down to think well of the latest lunacies.
School boards with the power to tax are dominated by members who vote to give raises to spouses. Teachers and administrators spend twelve or fourteen years to produce students unable to read their diplomas. The legion of the doomed controls all. The fraud is enormous.
What of the souls of those within the fraud? Can they be saved, or is the presence of the better sort of teacher perpetuating the myth? Are the handful of good, hard workers within the system guilty of making the immense frauds possible?
Stalin’s secret police interrogated millions of suspects. Many would not incriminate even one of their neighbors. Others would give the names of every person they knew. “If they arrest enough people, the system will collapse.” While those who resisted were brave, those who reeled off the names of hundreds of people to investigate may have done more to destroy the system.
It’s better to leave an unfixable system than lose one’s soul attempting to fix what is unfixable. Letting a corrupt system collapse from it’s own internal contradictions and the battles they cause within it is preferable to helping it exist. All Christian persecutions are quickly followed by fights among groups of persecutors. Those who fight the hardest against it may be doing the worst thing.
The destruction of innocents is what the other side loves.
