The humanist's answer for an eye of protection is "Big Brother." Government, as their "religion," is the answer for all of mankind's woes. If we just help one another by keeping an ever watchful eye on one another, we will evolve into the societies that will mean eventual utopia. What they fail to recognize is this mindset has been around since the first sin of independence from God and was demonstrably acted upon with the building of the Tower of Babel. This Babylonian idea that man can cure all of woes by collective cooperation is born in the bowels of hell.
However, our hope as believers is to fear the Lord in reverence and awe. Then, His ever watchful eye is on those who wait for His love to appear in all instances in their lives. This, my friends, is the difference between godly dependence and ungodly, rebellious independence. While humanists believe collectivism will bring us together, in the end it will mean utter isolationism, despair, and eternal death. May we all fear the Lord and hope for His lovingkindness.
