I do take hope in the knowledge that the contemporaries of the Apostles living under Roman rule no doubt felt the same.
Actually, it's worse than vanity. Utopian beliefs have led to millions of people being slaughtered by their governments.
Good point.
Good post. It’s all about where you place your trust and hope. -The government? or God. Or yourself?
Tried one, never can trust the other, ALWAYS taken care of... ALWAYS, -by God alone. He’s never failed yet. I’m still here to write about it.
I shouldn’t be.
this pretty much sums up my life now, I really have given up on the US politically
we have become so immoral that staunch conservatives promoted a cultist abortion loving gun hater who gave us gay marriage and government run health care and told us it is okay becase he wasn’t obama
and it definitely showed the split in the r-party
That’s two of us, amigo!
I have SO often wanted to quote that old John Cougar album title myself!
I have several friends, of evangelical bent, who used to be quite politically active, but have now given up entirely on America. They see the country as an evil cancer that is no longer worth even trying to salvage.
When I talk with them, my default position is to argue otherwise. But I find my own arguments pretty hollow in the end, when I see the country devolving into such a corrupt, deviant cesspool. Fag marriage seems to be the final, symbolic nail-in-the-coffin. When a country sinks to this level of degeneracy, you KNOW it’s over.
John who? :)
It’s the end of the world as we know it…and I feel fine.
Excellent post!
Ha! Another good musical reference.
Thanks! :)
Thank you for posting this!
My pleasure!
I'm not religious, so I don't arrive at perspective and detachment from that direction. At times I want to shut off all incoming information to simply pretend that the depraved insanities are not as overwhelmingly common as I know they are.
Truthfully, I am driven more crazy by the number of otherwise intelligent and responsible people that flat out say they find nothing amiss in what the sickos and despots are doing. IMO, the responsibility for our state of affairs lies with them more so than the lefty pervs. There are a heck of a lot of "enablers" in our society.
