Infected by Jesus. What can explain the wholesale abandonment of the intellect by the religiously devout at this moment in American history? How can this be? If you have never known the whelming joy of denying your own mind for the sake of Christ, of repudiating your ability to think logically and clearly, then you cannot grasp what is happening across a large swath of the American scene. Fundamentalist lemmings rush to edge of the cliff bearing their minds. And then fling, not their bodies, but their thinking ability over the abyss. When the devout sacrifice their mind, when they purge their brain of rational thought, a strange fire begins to burn on the altar of their heart. And a pure joy fills their soul. And it feels so good… This is the lure of a particular kind of virulent meme that now infects so many of us. We are finding meaning, not by thinking, but by giving up on thought. And the consequences are as bizarre as they are tragic. . CLICK HERE TO START DOWNLOAD
