It is a false dichotomy to decide Teach Torah is more important than exporting lies.

How is one supposed to explain light without explaining darkness?

Either teaching Torah or exposing lies?

This is not two separate things but rather two sides of the same coin.

The problem is not exposing lies verses living truth.

The problem is multifaceted:
Calling the unqualified and then putting them into positions of power and influence.

Sharing Torah the way we used to be taught to share the gospel in evangelical Christianity.

Teachers who are well learned in information but ill-trained in how to think.

And people who get easily distracted by strawman such as the shape of the earth etc.

Exposing lies is as important as revealing truth but most of the folks “exposing lies” are only sharing different lies as truths.

These same people think the same way so they simply replace one lie with another.

The problem isnt one way or the other but training and the lack of it.

People of influence must learn to unlearn error and learn truth…before becoming teachers themselves.

And that takes questioning, self-analysis, taking stalk of our private biases, assessing objectively, then finally judging subjectively against our prejudices trying to prove incorrect the thing we desire to find correct.

And it takes students to be shrewd and judicious.

Disciples of Yeshua need to stop listening to stupid people with big platforms, lots of money, loud voices, familiar names…and extreme prejudice.
