Is Man Obsolete? Is Logic an Enemy and Truth a Menace? from the Twilight Zone

If our resources have blessed you, please share them.

“The Obsolete Man” is an episode from The Twilight Zone that offers a prophetic warning about man’s destiny. It ran on June 2, 1961, and yet it is a must-see for all people in our time—60+ years later. The thought-provoking message is worth your time.

<<VIDEO BELOW>>

Rod Serling offered this introduction to the episode:

“You walk into this room at your own risk because it leads to the future. Not a future that will be, but one that might be. This is not a new world — it is simply an extension of what began in the old one. It has patterned itself after every dictator who has ever planted the ripping imprint of a boot on the pages of history, since the beginning of time. It has refinements, technological advances, and a more sophisticated approach to the destruction of human freedom. But like every one of the super-states that preceded it, it has one iron rule: logic is an enemy and truth is a menace.”

Obsolete Man/Obsolete Jobs

In this video, the “state” proclaims that Rodney Wordsworth is “obsolete.” Why? Because he is a librarian and “there are no more books.” They support their claim by saying that ministers are obsolete because “the state has proven that there is no God” — and “reading the Bible is a crime punishable by death.”

When those in the 1960s watched this episode, they were likely appalled at the suggestion of a world with such an immoral, unethical, and unbiblical perception of the worth of man and the idea of a government that would proclaim “there is no God.” In our day, most would still be appalled by such things. So, we should view this video as a warning of the dangers of the state if its power is corrupted and its authority is unlimited. This could happen if man denies God, rejects His truths, and then embraces the world’s lies. All humans have worth (including the pre-born) because man was created in the image of God. If man’s worth is ever determined based on the value of his contribution to society, we are all in danger.

Take time and watch this video. It is a MUST SEE!!!

Do You Know Jesus?

The Bible clearly states that everyone has sinned and fallen short of God's glory (Romans 3:23). It also emphasizes that while the wages of sin is death, God offers us the incredible gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23).

If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, know that today is the day of salvation (Acts 28). Turn away from your sinful past and turn to Jesus. Remember, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ will be saved” (Romans 10:13). Don’t wait—find hope and redemption!
