I’m sure you would agree that going blind is one of the scariest things a person could ever face. But what if blindness was a choice? What if a person could see if they wanted to but chose not to? What if a person walked around blindfolded all the time? Decided to drive that way? That would be really stupid, right?
Most of our society has chosen to walk in darkness. Even though the evidence is overwhelming that immorality, drunkenness, addictions, etc. are very harmful if not deadly, many practice them continually. They deny the obvious. They push the clear consequences out of their minds. More than that, they insist that everyone agrees with their “right” to blindness. Even further, they want the whole world to join them. I guess they think that if enough people live foolishly, it won’t seem foolish anymore. How many families have to be destroyed? How many people have to die before we open our eyes?
