Similarly, fundamentalist Protestants, believing in the inerrancy of the Bible as though every word of it, dictated by God himself, was to be
accepted as indubitably true,
ultimately rely in all their
arguments on an external authority.
If you can inform the conversation around the subjects that matter to you - becoming an active participant within that conversation and
accepting the dispersal of authority - you will help re-build trust, particularly trust in yourself and your
argument, and this will
ultimately serve the objectives of your campaign.
