This flawed theory of the secular world suggests that so-
called race and ethnicity will always taint and pollute
every decision. Thus, it asserts that “racial” minorities
will consistently lose to whites because of structural
55
racism. This may well explain why today’s underlying
problems of racism, and so-called race, continue to
elude a real resolution. Such are tell-tale clues that Dark
Realm forces are actively working.
– Political Solutions to a Spiritual Problem
The Secular Approach – There is an age old saying that
goes: “Never bring a knife to a gun fight.” One simply
cannot prevail wielding a knife against a firearm, just
based on the stand-off distance afforded a firearm vs a
knife alone! The same is true when dealing with a
spiritual problem. Secular solutions are woefully
inadequate to address a spiritual issue. For example,
both Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity
initiatives were promising programs that yielded notable
returns. However, each came with some significant
drawbacks that unfairly cost others. The “Great Society”
program was another example of the inadequacies that
often plague secular solutions. This ambitious program
had very good and noble aims. However, as we detail in
Chapter 6, its net effects on impoverished communities
produced lasting poverty while it disintegrated the vital
family structure.
