It’s funny to me when high school students think they’re free thinkers because they act like their friends and not like their parents. Adults who think of themselves as free thinkers are not any less silly. There are no free thinkers; there are simply persons animated by either the Spirit of God or the spirit of the age.
In our moment in Western history, the spirit of the age manifests control over its disciples predominately through the means of digital technology. Often we outsource our decisions to the attention-grabbing economy and obediently sign ourselves up for whatever hot new service emerges from Silicon Valley’s conglomerates and their globalist-oligarchical class.
