Conflict Resolution

It is interesting sitting in a class about conflict and conflict resolution and hearing them come up with all sorts of explanations for it. The professor even blamed the Japanese. When in reality the problem is that people have removed God from their lives. We removed God from the schools and when those kids joined the workforce we started to see a rise in workplace conflict.

If people stopped looking towards themselves and instead looked to God there would be a lot less conflict. And people would be a lot more content.

The professor kept talking about how we deal with conflict is what we learned by modeling our parents and siblings when we were between the ages of 3 and 9. He fails to take into account the learning we receive at the hand of our heavenly Father or the guidance of the Holy Spirit. He also tends to blame every difficulty we have with conflict on events from our childhood that are buried in our subconscious. When in reality, for a lot of people, the problem is unconfessed sin and a lack of salvation.

It makes me so sad to see someone so steeped in the humanism and secularism of this world. He doesn’t know the joy of living in Christ.

I will say that it was quite interesting and a bit entertaining to listen to someone spout off such a humanistic world view.
