The Babel Principles
⇒ united men can dethrone God
⇒ consensus determines truth and morality
⇒ man in his own determinate strength can achieve physical, social and spiritual greatness
⇒ power and truth in the religion of humanism
⇒ united men can create an acceptable and perfect social and governmental order.
All forms of earthly governments will eventually lead to abusive control of its subjects and tyrannical rule
Man’s government is always built on a wrong foundation . . . .
⇒ it’s built on the presumption that men have the ability to govern with truth, justice, and righteousness.
⇒ it’s built on the presumption that men know what is “right” for the masses
⇒ it’s built on the presumption that because men know what is right, they will do what is right.
