We are faced with an awkward scenario. On the one hand, we want Obama defeated to stop the socialist takeover of our country. On the other hand, we want to stop the gradual social decay of our country facilitated by people such as Romney.
Not voting for Romney advances the socialist takeover by Obama. Voting for Romney advances the insidious social decay, the gradual but constant slippery slope, the secular domination, the more subtle but equally inexorable attacks on people of faith.
It is a difficult choice. Given that choice, I opt to make a stand and not lend my support to the insidious social decay, and choose to vote for neither Obama nor Romney. I opt to no longer ride in the handbasket sliding more and more rapidly down the slippery slope. I choose not to willingly wade into the cesspool at the bottom.
I know the arguments. If Obama is reelected, we supposedly no longer will have a nation. I personally regard that as hyperbole. But even if it is not, there are some things more important than life itself.
We also need to understand, however, that, with regard to the cultural decay of our nation, that the course upon which we are heading—voting for more and more liberal and secular Republicans, tolerating and acceptable more and more amoral and immoral underpinnings of our society—is every bit as sure of a bad ending culturally as a vote for Obama has a bad ending politically.
The debate is complicated, and obscured, and falsified, and muddled, by the fact that many secular Republicans are in favor of the positions of social liberals. They therefore see Romney not as the lesser of two evils, but as a beloved trojan horse advancing their cause both economically and socially.
They, every bit as much as Obama, are my enemy.
I will not wade willingly into the cesspool. I will not trade even the most precious things of this earth, even our country, for my soul.
“But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.”
(Hebrews 11:16)
And how foes defeating Obama stop the socialist takeover of a nation that is already socialist? Romney is a fig leaf offered by the state run media and GOP-e - a pat on the head and a there there to the quaint little conservative American.
Believe me, they’re coming for us. Now or later, they’re coming for everything.
