Tue, 04/04/23

The postmodernist ethic seems to be quite pervasive, and I've seen it quite a bit in my church's youth group and even in my own children. Sometimes it seems that even the most obvious things get argued tooth and nail because the (unspoken and sometimes even unknown) assumption is that you can create your own truth.
