I share your thoughts and frustration and have struggled to explain leftists and I can only come to one conclusion; the devil is in their hearts. It’s happening all over the world at a hurried pace; people are choosing light or darkness, truth or lies, good or evil. GOD will prevail!

After all, in a nation predicated upon freedom, why would any person, group or state want to live under the auspices of a counter-intuitive ideology they inherently despise?

Conservatives are willing to let the statists go their own way.

But the statists demand that everyone be subjugated to their ideology.

People get the government that they deserve.

In the end, ALL governments collapse, and all civilizations fall.

Within the next few centuries, maybe a millenium at the most, the world will be where it was during the dark ages, or at the peak of some as unforeseen empire. Or we all may be dead, due to the sheer folly of man.

Either way, nothing lasts forever, and the only consistent thing about time is change.

” I truly believe it may only be matter of time, if not in our best interests, before states agreed to (or peacefully forced) an amicable split; albeit a temporary or long-term separation.”

Its not my first choice but I definitely think that if the patriotic Americans don’t take back control of the Federal govt then we will see the states start to go their own way in collectives.

The level of vitriol in this country is so acidic that it cannot be resolved by elections.

. . . those states that are irrevocably committed to the common sense principles of our nation’s founding . . .

Identify and test the citizens who are committed to these things, and make this a legal qualification for pulling the levers of self government, i.e. voting. Ban the rest from the voting booth until such time as they prove themselves to be committed to those principles, beginning with the principle that truth exists and is both apprehensible and applicable in any society that expects to survive, let alone thrive.

This is about business, but is reflective of the nation at large.

I suggest looking at this on a more basic level. Throughout history we can see that given his druthers and given time, Caesar Has always descended to the lowest moral level possible. Calgula and Nero are more the rule than the exception. So you want to replace the current caesar with a new and improved caesar?

You might want to rethink that approach.

We need a miracle.

I think we’re going to get one.

A union of states that was held together by a few common ideas falls apart when those ideas are no longer common. Pretty much a logical occurrence.

Amen, and he will not be mocked. The left around the world has put up their golden calf of governments controlled by them, which they blindly worship. Meanwhile, they do everything they can to try to rid nations of the One True God.

Prayers of conversion and good people standing up for the truly God-given good things in life, will help, as it would have in the time of Lot and Noah, while there is still time.

Elections have lost most relevance - the left has learned that they can easily overturn them through street protests and violence and through threats of boycotts and media shaming or through bureaucratic or judicial fiat.

We on the right are still playing the game by the old rules - they’re no longer relevant.

That’s a good scene. Wish it was on Netflix.
