How Did We Forget The Golden Rule?

Naturally, all humans desire to live without the shackles of a tyrant’s bondage. Throughout history, humanity has repeated the same tragic pattern:  people seeking political dominion over others. Human kingdoms rise. Governments expand. Wealthy elites consolidate power.

As a result, ordinary people inevitably and consistently suffer. But what if the true battle isn't merely based on human politics? What if an unseen force has been working behind the curtain since the beginning of time—guiding humanity away from freedom, truth, and God's design?

In The Dark State, Wade J. Carey explores the spiritual origin of political animosity, the various types of tyranny, and the ageless struggle between good and evil. The lack of people following The Golden Rule fuels the destruction of the American Dream, and it’s orchestrated by a dark hand of evil.

Using history, faith, and contemporary events, Carey exposes the deeper battle unfolding beneath politics and culture—and reveals the hope that can ultimately overcome it.

Because the greatest threat to freedom may not be what we see.

It's what we don't see.
