Why You've Been Duped Into Believing That The World Is Getting Worse

By J.D. King

The evening news is filled with bloodshed and war. Poverty, pandemics, and injustice appear to be overwhelming the world. Yet there is more to this story.

In his controversial new book, "Why You've Been Duped Into Believing That The World is Getting Worse," J.D. King recounts statistics that contradict popular narratives. Drawing from the New York Times, Washington Post, and other leading authorities, King recounts something unexpected.

Beneath the social turmoil and political controversy, things are actually getting better. King contends, "Restrictions attributed to race, gender, and social class are not as rigid as they once were. The marginalized and impoverished are finding a seat at the table. Hope is rising, and people are discovering their reason for existence. Spiritual fervor is riding high."

Despite documented advances, a faulty sense of doom continues to grip conservatives and people of faith. It's regrettable that multitudes gravitate toward bad news. Our hard-wired pessimism and guilty self-flagellation obscure progress. It is time to re-envision the hope of the gospel.
