While countries like Britain, Germany, Sweden and Belgium appear
to have made their choices of what path to follow, the quest for answers still
haunts, says Zacharias.
“In one Middle Eastern country, an awful thing happened.
Two young Muslims turned atheists were on a program. They argued for the
reality that blood had been spilled across the centuries and that there was no
denying that from its earliest days to the present, this was the same
blood-letting in the name of the belief as originally given and carried out.
Then one of them asked the cleric a question that was as pointed as could be.
It was a powerful question with an irrefutable fact within the question. The
question laid bare a reality that was deemed blasphemous. The next day that man
and his family were murdered, just for asking a fact-laden question that was
unanswerable without conceding the truth. For that, he and his family paid with
their lives.
“That’s the depravity of our age. It is death to ask the pointed question
because the answer, if true, betrays the real truth. The masquerade is on and
it is deadly. We watch hundreds die. We hear speeches full of distortions; we
tolerate deceit and even reward it. Some in power and in the public eye
whitewash the reality while the blood of the murdered cries out from the
ground. Our children and grandchildren will inherit the whirlwind because our
media pundits and misguided speech-makers have sown to the wind by trading in
lives for their power.”
Zacharias says there is hope even in the midst of the reigning
lie.
“The lie has a shelf life. The truth abides forever,” he said. “God
can even conquer through our perversion.”
