It was during the trial that Pilate asked Jesus if he was a king. After all, to some degree, the flaming uncontrollable human ego yearns for kingship over something.
Jesus said he had “come to bear witness of the truth.”
A cynical, jaded Pilate responded, “What is truth?”
And may I say, ever since then, it has been the mission of pseudo-intellectualism to establish the precept that truth is both illusive and expansive. In other words, “there’s your truth and there’s my truth.”
Therefore, the human race has done little to progress itself beyond the wheel and the microwave oven.
I’m here to tell you today that there is truth. If you find my discoveries to be worthy, you should take that list and go see if you can find these elements of truth in the Christian faith, the Muslim faith, Judaism, Hindu, the Republican platform, the Democratic platform, or even the mission statement of your local government.
Here is the truth I believe to be constant:
1. You and I are part of eight billion tourists with a temporary visa, on a planet where we are aliens.
2. Nothing is thought, dreamed or acted out in a vacuum. All my actions affect you and all yours intervene in mine.
3. Thinking ahead and learning from what has been discovered is the definition of Earth Logic.
4. Maintaining respect for nature and honor for our fellow-travelers determines our fate in the process of natural selection.
Four simple points on which the entire foundation of Earth-life is dependent.
If we think we own anything, we become wicked landlords.
If we think we can be ourselves without respecting the wishes of others, we become terrorists.
If we contend that life is built on destiny rather than our free-will choice to plan, we cripple ourselves in the march of progress.
And if we think the earth will allow us to continue to be arrogant, unfeeling and unaware of our surroundings without stepping in to eliminate us, we are total fools.
I can’t always find these four truths in the religious system–but I can go to the Sermon on the Mount from Jesus and find all four.
This is why I believe in the Jesonian–the heart of Jesus.
And it is why the truth does make us free.
