Last night Melissa asked me what Fractured Perspicacity means after reading my first Blog post, and after I explained it, she questioned why I would choose that as a name. Mostly I chose it because I am a weird, sarcastic kind of guy. However since she asked, I have been thinking about it a lot and I do have reason for it.
It is nothing more than a fancy way for me to describe the state of the world from my understanding. In the simplest breakdown it means broken understanding, and that is exactly how I see the people around me perceiving their world, with a broken understanding of the events around them. We (The people of this earth) have gone far too long without questioning people we consider to be in authority or hold expert opinions, and we have allowed them to break our ability to understand and perceive the world around us. Let’s look at some examples.
The Theory of Evolution being taught and believed as law. Please read that previous sentence again and pay attention to the highlighted words before closing your mind to another Christian striking down evolution. I constantly here comments like "what’s wrong with teaching evolution, its science," (Which it is). The problem is when people make comments like this they are often expressing that they shouldn't doubt or question science. Sure, evolution is science (doesn’t mean its right), Intelligent design is science as well (doesn’t mean that’s right either). The media, scientists, evolutionists have broken the world's (That’s you and me folks) understanding of where we came from because why would anyone question a science text book, or what a Dr. in the field of evolution says as truth.
Here is one of my favorite broken understandings out there; Christians are intolerant and hate (insert any sin here but reference the sinner not the sin). Christians DO NOT HATE ANYONE. Most hate evil and sin (even the sins we find ourselves trapped in). Despite the attempts by certain groups to tie the two together; I can say that homosexuality is wrong and still have love for homosexuals. I can say the Islam is false, and still love my Muslim brothers. We practice this type of intolerance everyday in America but no one bats an eyelash unless its Christians saying they believe something is wrong. We tell drug addicts what they are doing is wrong, and yet we help them to recover (translated: showing them love). Damn you rehab clinics and your intolerant ways!!!
It’s about time we fixed our fractured perspicacity. I say this to everyone out there whether you are Christian, Muslim, Atheist, Agnostic, Wiccan, Pagan, Searching, it doesn’t matter; You need to challenge life, challenge ideas, and NEVER allow society to determine your understanding of the world.
