Extract from “Is That True? Discerning Truth in an Age of Deception”

Truth has never had an easy time of it. The devil started early in the garden doing his best to corrupt and distort God’s facts and place His truth under a cloud of confusion, doubt and suspicion. I guess we could say that was where “fake news” was really born. From there it only escalated throughout history, until all was contaminated and it was hard to be sure of anything heard or read, with the exception of Holy Scripture.

The Bible was, and is, the only sure foundation of absolute truth that we could build on, and that principle formed the foundation of our current Western society worldview and the principles of the necessity of traditional objective Truth that undergirds everything. 

In our new book, Is That True? Discerning Truth in an Age of Deception, Chuck Stephens and I try to prove that the same sinister force that was at work in the garden is also applying the same doubt through all our western news and publications such that we go so far as to ask the question “Has real Truth finally suffered an irreversible fatal wound in our time?” Can we stop this certain death.

With all its flaws and shortcomings, the Western Worldview became the dominant worldview and contributor of our progress. The practices and principles that flowed out of it built the current prosperous and successful structure of the Western world in all core areas wherever it is found throughout the world. A system that benefited the entire world throughout history.

We then show we have witnessed 50 years of incessant, heavy-duty, highly orchestrated attacks on traditional truth, as it once defined our Western Worldview, with its solid Judeo-Christian foundation. If you are my age, you still remember when prayer and Scripture reading were mandatory in public schools and Christian morality and virtues were the core of our society, and where lawlessness, poverty, and disease were minimal, and family well-being was maximum. But since the middle 1960’s we have witnessed a gradual departure from that state, and we show it can be connected to the death of absolute truth and ask ourselves has it enriched out western world?

We discuss what we see as highly calculated deceptive tactics, employed by some elite groups, who knowingly or unknowingly have partnered with those original evil forces. Traditional truth is being intentionally and systematically undermined to accomplish specific social, political and moral outcomes that are extremely contrary to our traditional values of Truth. It is our concern that this movement will soon be accompanied by one final potential tool that has the ability to utterly destroy our world of western values beyond imagination, one that we could never have anticipated.

It is the “traditional worldview” that we believe needs to be urgently reaffirmed, acknowledged, defended articulately, protected and preserved before we witness the entire demolition of the world as we know it.

We further show how the current plight of our worldview all started when it was declared that no truth is ever absolute, and even our ability to agree on some form of operational functional foundational truth with which we could design structures and live by, is not possible. With that in view, we attempt to show it is our duty to expose, resist and object to the current replacement versions of absolute truth, wherever they are intruding, with their unrestrained, foggy, untested subjective type of truth, endorsed by a general elite group inspired by ungodly powers and dedicated to overthrow everything related to traditional truth. A movement that appears unapologetically dedicated to endlessly and slyly dismantling every vestige of traditional Truth with all its related values, practices and structures. And more so, it subsequently appears intent on incriminating and castigating anyone who is dedicated to the preservation and defense of traditional Truth.

In Is That True? Discerning Truth in an Age of Deception, we take great care to present solid examples of how this group employs a series of clever, intentional tactics dedicated to hijacking traditional Truth and systematically replacing it, installing a system seemingly more designed for political dominance, economic gain, and social control, than anything else.  We also present that there has been no greater vessel and servant of the new subjective truth and its anti-western values, than the modern legacy media. We show in great detail how it has infiltrated and influenced all forms of communications and publishing using seven strategic tactics.

As we move faster and farther from the ability for any of us to even discern truth with certainty, let alone restore it, we show how in the new AI age, no truth will be safe from corruption. AI programs, like xAI’s Grok 4 and many, many more like it, combined with the speed and ubiquitous power of Quantum Computing, will make it nearly impossible to discern real truth from their sophisticated slick creations, clever deceptions and outright forgeries. This technology, already fully embraced, equally holds both a greater threat to escalate deception one hundred-fold, while at the same time, if properly, controlled, regulated, and monitored it also has amazing unlimited potential for our societal good. But this is a big “if.” And we outline that in great detail.

As we present the abilities of AI for good and its potential for abuse, we need to all be aware that systems chained together from multiple sources, sharing the entire world of data sources, available throughout the world, holding content on any subject imaginable, and made available at the speed of trillions of calculations per second, paints a picture of a system that almost feels omniscient and omnipresent. When such systems of data linked to information about each one of us, with personal information on every imaginable subject and detail of our lives, processed and acted upon in seconds creates a vast threat to our freedom and worldview.

Quantum computing’s speed and the capacity of their programs and processors, linked to a plethora of control devices being used for good and evil, has created capabilities we should not all be comfortable with. We have stopped taking notice when we see Discreet Voice Activated Recording devices and hidden motion activated cameras everywhere since they serve so many useful services.

Devices include cameras, whether they monitor street corners, toll highways, building entries, or radios, our personal TV’s or our personal PC’s, and all GPS systems in our cars, phones, and tracking devices that are used everywhere, all collect data on you for every move and action, every moment of every day. Data sent back to a variety of locations and stored without our permission. Banking card records, every purchase, every place you use it when you enter a bank, a gas station, an airport, a highway, a mall, a restaurant, or a grocery store, you are captured with a transaction or a camera, equipped with facial recognition, or other AI-driven biometric solutions that are all available anywhere, to anyone, who wants to record and collect data and feed it into a supercomputer. And we must not forget the drones and satellites that can follow us, and take a photo of anything the size of a dime from 50 feet, or even five miles away, using identity verification systems, that uplink or downlink to satellite stations, through 5G and soon 6G wireless transmission towers, into supercomputers that collect endless data that links to each of. We used to call these spy devices, but they have become all too common.

You get the picture. The surveillance society started pragmatically, simply and honestly but now constitute a mammoth potential spy system most are not aware of. Super Quantum computers all networked together, pier-to-pier, block chained, connected to endless devices, are networked to toll highways, police devices, power grids, water systems, from every corner where a CCTV device is located, means you are being monitored and data collected on you. Add to that the data content from all social media servers that is all being added and you have a book on you for good or evil.

We warn people that with a list of the electro-mechanical control devices that can remotely activate and deactivate anything, anywhere and are able to control everything from highway access gates, door locks, barriers, cars installed with kill switches, with commands that are able to deactivate your credit card, your bank account, or anything else using an algorithm programmed without your input are dangerous unless we gain a form of regulation and control personally. We show that AI must be managed by more than just its creators. As we enter a world of self-learning computers that control all our resources, with people implanted with transhuman chips controlled by an AI connection, or robotic humans, we need to become informed. With kamikaze swarm drones that can invade public gatherings with dangerous payloads, we need to become aware. With groups that have power to monitor its own citizens and corporations, with the ability to enforce compliance with laws and acceptable social behavior and compliance with governmental positions on all matters in an ESG credit program system, we are warned not to let this genie out of the bottle without your input.

Our intent is to make you aware that this is a subject we need to understand and regulate in all its facets. We show you how to empower yourself before you are overpowered by it and truth is relegated to an obsolete status. Being informed and prepared is power. And that is what Is That True? Discerning Truth in an Age of Deception, is all about.
