Flourish: Democracy or Hypocrisy: Democracy or Hypocrisy: Healing The Great Divide
(eBook)

Today, moderns have a limited understanding of core values. Many doubt truth exists, even if revealed by science. Our identity is, overwhelmed by a dependency on mass means and methods. We inherently fear manipulation by mass influences but commonly perceive value judgments as dogmas and fanatical. While bombarded with commercial influences, personal values or moral beliefs are often, shunned or ignored. The exact opposite occurred during the Renaissance. America, for a hundred and fifty years, ever since the Civil War, has avoided internal disaster, while increasingly and naïvely perching on the precipice of the mounting national debt. So, as core values express our humanity and provide resilience, our art should imbue human warmth and foster inner strength and encourage stability. But, any measure of truth must be consistent and durable, not propagated by mass commercial or political dogmas, but revealing insights, revelations, and rebirth, a renaissance, into the nature of truth.
