I completely understand that view as I think that is true for most.
Knowing the truth is important as a Christian as Jesus doesn't hide behind lies. What makes the truth dangerous is that the higher truths are only for the bravest and most courageous ones (notice how I avoided the word "Fearless"). What you refer to as "Redpills" are tiny douses of the truth that are meant to be slowly spoon-fed with time to digest and think about for good reason. It is very easy to overdose on the truth as it is addicting and dangerous in high amounts. Higher truths are red mountains compared to red pills and aren't easy to swallow and can cause massive pain if you don't have good faith.
As for leveraging power, I think most say they would never do it, but it's important to understand that absolute power corrupts absolutely, and sometimes even just handing off the power or receiving it is destructive itself. I say save the power for God and let him handle the things that would require using it. Pray to him when you need his blessings as you will receive them.
So true. Thank you. In a certain light, Evil being real and dominant in the world isn’t a huge surprise. The organization of it might be, but this world is pretty well suited to it taking root?? I don’t know. God bless
