Wherein I learn that Chuck Colson became “one of the most important social reformers of the 20th century.” Really? So off to Wikipedia I go, which says he received 15 honorary doctorates. Really?! So off I go in search of them. Lots of bobblehead repetition of the claim, but only one institution ever gets named, Union U. And indeed Union U gave him one, and (KA-CHING!) named an endowed chair after him 9 months later. People make a lot of noise about how Trump is dissolving the factual basis on which our democracy depends, but he’s a piker compared to evangelicals — they’ve been manufacturing their own reality for decades.
