Empire of Deceit

“Fly! Fly! About with your ship and fly! Row, row, row for your lives away from this accursed shore. This is the Island where Dreams come true.” ~ The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, C. S. Lewis

I am taking on the task of recording all of my essays and adding them to my podcast. Many of my essays were written before I was able to record them on Substack so I am making sure I have audio versions of all of them available here.

EMPIRE OF DECEIT:

You can read this essay here

It is a nightmarish world when everything we thought was true becomes an illusion. When words change or disappear completely. When everything we thought was good and right is swept away.

It all started with such a seemingly innocuous undertaking. The State changed the meaning of a few words. At the same time, they convinced the populous that dreams were better than reality. After all, reality is frightening. In dreams, we can create the plot and be anything or anyone we choose.

Lies.

Empire of Deceit is one of my most read essays. It was first published on November 13, 2021. It is as relevant today as it was then. Researching and writing these essays has been an incredible experience for me. I have learned so much along the way, not only from delving deeply into difficult and controversial topics but also from my readers and listeners who have shared their knowledge with me. I am so grateful God led me to pursue this incredible journey of discovery.

I want to thank everyone who has gone on this journey with me. I hope you will take a few minutes to listen to Empire of Deceit.
