I am utterly amazed at how some people are driven by STUPID impulses! That’s what happens when people are so ‘narrow-minded’ about a specific belief, that all else becomes ‘secondary’ and ‘not important’ - forgetting that their blind stupidity ultimately endangers the very thing that they espouse to protect.
If we can't gather together the people and the actions that America stands for to defeat our foes - then we give the victory to those uncivilized cretins.
I really need to get out of FR for a few days. This time is hard enough to remember - and doubly hard as I pray for my dear grandson, that grew up in my house, who is now getting pelted by hoards of stone throwing mobs - and seeing all the tenuous bridges they had made, all blown up by a handful of jack*ses here in the states who are looking for their 15 minutes - but who aren't fit to dust off our soldiers boots.
Actually, I think I'll take a long hiatus from FR - it just isn't what it used to be. So many of the original FR'ers have given up and gone on. It seems to be devolving into a group of nattering nabobs...makes me wonder sometimes if I was on DU.
Such a claim can cut both ways.
Consider those who are worldly, only thinking about life before death, but not the consequences after death. Such people are grasping for things they cannot hold eternally, and lose those eternal things provided to them. Meanwhile, those who persevere on the eternal things provided to them, might surrender many a temporal thing, but have eternal rewards awaiting them.
