Hi Guys!
I am not a hand wringing defeatist.
Nor am I a delusional Dominionist.
I am a realist.
And reality is what reality is.
How many of you think we won’t be having abortions in another 10 years?
Seriously.
1973! 50 Million since 1973 and completely unregulated.
We can’t even get them to do the level of paperwork that you have to do to sell a beer!
Spending!
What can we do about spending?
Do you think the 100+ seat GOP is going to suddenly STOP spending and then CUT back?
Is there any historical evidence you could present which would support any other conclusion other than this:
Democracies ALL Die of Suicide.
History tells us, we are doomed.
The actions of our leaders in both parties tell us we are doomed.
The Bible tells us, we are doomed.
This Earth. This time. Is all going to fall.
The period of darkness is nigh.
You are either prepared for it or self deluded that it is not happening all around you.
Now, I know, nothing I have said has remotely penetrated the fog in your mind.
I know your sincere, yet mistaken belief in Dominionism.
America will rise from these ashes and usher in a brave new world, if only we didn’t have these “hang wringers” bringing everyone down.
Blah blah.
I am not bringing anyone down! I am waking people up!
Others, not blinded by your false religious teachings will see what is self evident. America as we knew it is gone!
Something else is going to replace it. The sooner we understand WHAT and WHEN, the sooner we can be prepared.
This is not some sky is falling while everything is really OK nonsense.
This economy is not ABLE to come back. Housing prices, stocks, everything upon which it has been built since 1986 is about to come to an end.
And you are NOT DEALING with it.
DEAL !!
Things can change. There is human free will - used well and misused - and God’s ultimate arrangement and plans.
You are mixing up apples, oranges and wheel bearings. Economy is one thing (it’s artificial, has to crumble or collapse to become a reality based economy). A society founded upon moral values is another thing.
Ranting screeds saying “I am a realist and you are not and DEAL WITH IT” are very boring and totally unconvincing as reasonable debate methods.
Your opinion is your opinion, and as we know, everyone has one. But they are not all of equal value. Screwtape called himself and his fellow devils “realists”. Saying you are a realist doesn’t mean that you have a better grasp of reality than someone else. Bald assertions don’t mean you see the truth more than someone else.
How do I know if abortions will be happening at the same rate in ten years? I don’t know. And neither do you.
Spending? If the gov doesn’t have money, they won’t spend it. Sure, things are going to change one way or another, they always do.
This “WE’RE ALL DOOMED” crap is just that, crap.
You can believe it all you want, fine. But trying to shove it down everyones’ throat in an arrogant manner will not win you converts. Your assertions that you see “reality” and no one else does (unless they agree with your arguments from the future as though you are a modern day Nostradamus) are just plain irrational.
I have no clue what you mean by Dominionism but I would bet if I were a betting lady that I don’t believe in it.
You actually have not a clue as to what I believe. But I can tell you that “DOOM IS NIGH ALL IS LOST” is a stupid, silly, defeatist belief and spreading “WOE IS US” messages are counter-productive to any positive, moral or rational discussion or actions.
Suit yourself but fewer and fewer people are reading your nonsense on FR. I only read this comment so I could reply properly.
