Sometimes, when I get completely unnerved by their irrationality, I open my Bible and read the part in 2 Thessalonians where Paul speaks of the strong delusion God would send to the wicked, and I think I understand what's going on with them.

I love Psalm 18:24-41, ESPECIALLY verse 41!!
24The LORD rewarded me for doing right,because of the innocence of my hands in his sight.
25To the faithful you show yourself faithful;to those with integrity you show integrity.
26To the pure you show yourself pure,but to the wicked you show yourself hostile.
27You rescue those who are humble,but you humiliate the proud.
28LORD, you have brought light to my life;my God, you light up my darkness.
29In your strength I can crush an army;with my God I can scale any wall.
30As for God, his way is perfect.All the LORD's promises prove true.He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.
31For who is God except the LORD?Who but our God is a solid rock?
32God arms me with strength;he has made my way safe.
33He makes me as surefooted as a deer,leading me safely along the mountain heights.
34He prepares me for battle;he strengthens me to draw a bow of bronze.
35You have given me the shield of your salvation.Your right hand supports me;your gentleness has made me great.
36You have made a wide path for my feetto keep them from slipping.
37I chased my enemies and caught them;I did not stop until they were conquered.
38I struck them down so they could not get up;they fell beneath my feet.
39You have armed me with strength for the battle;you have subdued my enemies under my feet.
40You made them turn and run;I have destroyed all who hated me.
41They called for help, but no one came to rescue them.They cried to the LORD, but he refused to answer them.
Am no where and no way in danger from this whirlwind, but am praying VERY earnestly that God send MIGHTY angels to ride in it and quell its fury!
God bless you NN for your incredible work here--and all our precious Freepers, especially those in harms way.
