Oh, it’s spiritual.
People are probably getting tired of this ol’ Spirit Redneck talking about spirit... :-)
But it’s true, and that’s a piece of reality which gets such short shrift today. Civics doesn’t address spirit. Politics doesn’t address spirit. Psychology doesn’t address spirit. Religions do, but often only superficially in practice if not in principle. And importantly, the bible, that modernly almost forgotten work, does in great depth.
One could go into grotty detail but the big picture, to me, is that God is showing that This Problem Is Bigger Than Mortal Man, So Where Ya Gonna Go?
True. And cultural.
My former girlfriend's kids revere me as a mentor and stop by to visit when they are in town. I helped raise them while Mom was deployed in the sand-box.
I have a standard for all people of all ages 8 to 80. It is the same, regardless of color or social status.
Some folks can't cope with that. Mainly Godless liberals.
