How Do Good People Fit in Bad Systems

After addressing a critique of logic that we mentioned in the previous episode, we move on to the question of how good people fit in bad systems.  The nature of systems and institutions is always partly bad, so many righteous people avoid being involved in the government, in educational institutions, in major corporations, etc.  The result of this is that these institutions are worse than they could have been if there were more good people involved.  We see a Biblical pattern that suggests that it is the wicked who judge the institutions, and the righteous are a part of those institutions in a way that does not bring about their own condemnation.  We try to explore what it looks like for a righteous person to be part of a flawed institution.
