Does humility even matter anymore? Even for Christians? Seriously, I am asking that question. Because, it seems to me at least, in the last five years or so, the only thing that really matters is screaming as loudly and forcefully as one can (or metaphorically on social media) how you or those you agree with are right, and others are wrong. In many ways, I’ve very much been guilty of this myself. But, of late I’ve really grown weary of it all; the name calling, the mudslinging, the hubris, the bad-faith characterizations. No longer is it enough for one’s ideological/political/theological opponent to be wrong—now they are evil and corrupt. It’s like one cannot simply disagree with someone else, now one must question the very moral character of the one they disagree with.
