Being an individual is not bad
Beware pastors or theologians telling you individualism is a bad thing based on this connection with post-modernism:
Here, then, is the single epistemological and moral principle in postmodernism, namely, the freedom, autonomy, and sovereignty of the individual. You alone decide what is true and false, right and wrong, for yourself.
That's a quote from a book on worldviews by an author named Sunshine.
What, afterall, is the antithesis of individualism? Melting into some sort of collective? Obviously being an individual is not the root cause of not recognizing an absolute standard for truth. Ignorance, sin, a seared conscience might be candidates for the root cause, but not the notion or reality of being an individual.
