Thought Leaders Series: 2018
Through much studies and reflection I have come to realise that leaders of most known faith traditions were trying to reshape the minds of their audience in light of the socioeconomic challenges upon them in their era.
For example, Jesus was trying to move the Jews away from some of the yokes in Judaism by challenging and deconstructing existing institutions and doctrines. But in an attempt to consolidate his philosophy, ‘Christians’ end up with similar institutions and doctrines over again.
So I conclude that largely the lenses through which these Texts are read are vitally important. When institutions and doctrines are built through faulty lenses, we end up with myopic citizens.
