Mankind will err without paying heed to the creator

Unless our leaders get back to moral and absolute truth backed by moral character, this will continue

BARNABY TROUBLE: Unless our leaders get back to moral and absolute truth backed by moral character, this never-ending merry-go-round will continue. Picture: MICK TSIKAS

I WRITE with relation to the letter "All is definitely not fair in love and war" (QT 20/02).

There is a vast difference between lust and love just as there is a major difference between religion and Christianity - the two have been confused since the time of Adam.

You don't need logic to know we live in an existential society that has cast off all restraints and resulted in the chaos acted out every day.

Without the rule of law and moral character to guide and protect society, what's left is sheer anarchy.

Einstein said correctly: "The sign of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result."

Barnaby Joyce has done the same thing as millions have done over the centuries and expected things to turn out differently.

Society has chosen to shake its fist at the creator, whereby nothing is sacred or morally right. Greek-thinking told us there are no moral absolutes or absolute truth; look where that thinking has taken society.

Absolute truth has been given to mankind through Christ and the sacred scriptures. Any violation brings nothing but wars, pain and heartache.

Unless our leaders get back to moral and absolute truth backed by moral character, this never-ending merry-go-round will continue, along with its deception acted out no matter where you go in the world. Mankind has a flawed nature and cannot live estranged from his creator.

The choice is yours.
