Why are human beings so prone to being tricked or conned?

Why do we so often readily believe every story told to us, without asking questions?

Are we becoming more gullible as information overload increases - and are Christians especially prone to this?

Mal Fletcher was part a guest panelist recently on UCB-Radio in the UK, to discuss this issue.

You are right that we often shrink back from fully expressing our convictions because it puts us "out there". We must realise that the world looks at us at the same time as they hear us. We must learn the lessons & press on.

Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Mal! As Christians living in today's ultra-pragmatic culture, our choices need to recognize the present reality while seeing it through the perspective of our God-revealed future.

I was close to tears when I read the excerpt from Mal's new book "The Future is X". He reminded me of things from my past which were so dramatically true.
