Buddhist subjectivist leads discussion upon truth (= Christ) into irrelevance, in-conclusion (so conveniently, eh?), thus serving his Buddhist, subjectivist purpose?....

Greatest Enemy Of Truth (= Christ) Is "Good" And Hubris, As Usual, Always, And Inevitably
(Apollonian, 4 Apr 18)

Hello Brian: just now watched ur vid--though I must admit I fast-forwarded through it--which u put up today, 4 Apr 18, entitled, "Why do Some People Seek the Truth but Others do Not." See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BBaMLzfTbQ

The vid was very INCONCLUSIVE, people too often merely giving and reciting rather meandering anecdotes. And first thing u needed, but neglected, was a DEFINITION for truth, thus the necessity of an objective reality which truth then is reflection of such reality, truth the very pt. and object of worship for our dear Christianity, never forget, Christ himself = truth, Gosp. JOHN 14:6.

But now to cut to the chase, people fail to seeking truth--which always (in determinist fashion), CYCLICALLY, ends badly, esp. for a civilization--because they're distracted and diverted, typically DUE TO ELEVATION OF FALLACIOUS, NON-EXISTENT "GOOD" over truth--for there is no such thing as "good," though so many people won't admit it. And it's significant and notable to observe that in entire history of philosophy and ethics, there's NEVER been any sound, defensible definition, including a solid premise which works in all cases, given for such "good."

It's important to note here, that sociologically, people w. strong, serious opinions on such truth vs. "good" issue always seem to be in minority, MOST people taking a "middle," indeterminate sort of stance on the issue, preferring to follow whichever opinion in expedience, not honest conviction.

Thus the objective, hence determinist reality, founded in absolute cause-effect, in order to provide for non-existent "good," must be rejected in favor of subjectivism, including now the perfectly "free," hence God-like human will--even though there's still problem for definition of "good," for example. Thus with such perfect "freedom" of human will humans evidently CREATE "good," which wouldn't otherwise exist. Thus HUBRISTIC humans pretend to overcoming determinism and necessity, absolute cause-effect.

And of course, human will COULDN'T be perfectly free of obligation/necessity of self-preservation (also known as self-interest)--which is simply overlooked and ignored, and this overlooking and ignoring of objective, determinist reality is itself counted as a "good" and "virtue." Such then is foundation of lies and lying (see Gosp. JOHN 8:44)--the pretending to some greater "good" which doesn't exist, but only presumed and wished-for--as on part of the fools in the "middle" who merely follow leadership out of expedience, who always end reaping the horrific whirlwind.

Thus we see again, greatest enemy of truth (= Christ) is hubris (madness) and "good," such good just a lie which always seems to be accompanied by pretension (another lie) to a perfectly "free" will, capable of overcoming the determinist will of God, absolute cause-effect.

So HOW does this madness (hubris) of the false cult of "good" and a perfectly "free" will arise?--in CYCLIC manner, fm the natural and inevitable corruption of a society/culture at first built on honesty, hence heeding of determinist, objective reality, but which cultural value, including especially honesty, is now superseded and replaced by lies, hubris, and pretension to such "good" and "freedom" of will which work now to the society's destruction, as in way of central-banking and fiat-currencies (see Mises.org for expo; use search engine), as we see and saw fm the ancient Roman example, and again in this age.

So Brian, the discussion in ur vid got off track and FAILS, I submit, for the lacking of strong guidance of the discussion and basic necessity of DEFINITIONS of terms. Perhaps u should consider that if it's really TRUTH which inspires u, u need to be more attentive to necessity of definitions for what u're trying to talking about. For what underlies truth is objective reality, hence determinism (absolute cause-effect)--or were u trying to ignore this determinist necessity?--no wonder the discussion failed--how convenient for Buddhist subjectivism and mysticism.
