TRUTH

Error, indeed, is never set forth in its naked deformity, lest, being thus exposed, it should at once be detected. But it is craftily decked out in an attractive dress, so as, by its outward form, to make it appear to the inexperienced (ridiculous as the expression may seem) more true than the truth itself. - Irenaeus

Evil men and Seducers

But evil men and seducers shall wax worse
 and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
 These were the words of Apostle Paul to a young Timothy about two thousand years ago. In this same third chapter of his second letter to Timothy he compared the future deception to that of the battle between Moses and two magicians of Egypt who are given the names Jannes and Jambres.  They were able to oppose Moses with mocking paranormal tricks, but only to a point.  Often in the bible the Greek word used for sorcery is the very word we get pharmacy from.  Drugs can have a deceptive influence on those who use them therefore have been used by seducers over the centuries to manipulate and control naive people in the form of magic.  Our liberal society has begun to neutralize all critical thinking regarding drugs and turn it into a form of entertainment for the masses.  At times it becomes nothing more than a placebo.
