A strict regard for truth is imperative because so many "facts" are "political".
An example is that of climate change. If the climate were indeed changing and this is sufficiently threatening for us to change our behaviour, then belief in climate change will mean your government imposing laws and taxes that will impact on your quality of life.
Another example of a "political fact" is whether the earth goes round the sun or vice versa. The Catholic Church was invested in denying the truth of the earth going round the sun because it did not want to admit that it was wrong. It did not want to admit that it was wrong because it would mean their other wrong decisions would come to light in the burned and bloody history of Christianity. If the all the mistakes of the Catholic Church came to light, Christians might well stop being Christians and think of becoming Muslim or Liberal.
Having tried Liberalism, Communism, Fascism, Socialism and Nazism, it is now time for Western Man to swallow his pride and get with the programme of divine synthesis.
