Just sayin’.
Nobody intentionally does that... you’re right it would sound silly.
But we’ve invited that camel of sin into our tent. A couple years ago I saw a letter that had been written by FDR to persuade churches to back government Social Security. The copy I saw was addressed personally to the pastor of an old Baptist church in Maryland, a church that I was visiting at the time I worked in Maryland.
Hackles should have gone up at the churches. This is a charity issue... why are we outsourcing to Caesar?
And I can say why they wanted to outsource to Caesar... because it would cut their own lives out of the loop. It gets so INCONVENIENT at times to contribute to charity. Just let Washington cut some checks, it is so neat and clean.
Except oops, it isn’t.
And so anyhow. It’s because people were so willing to believe in government, that government ever was considered to be worthy of approaching with a request that “gay marriage” be instituted.
And glory hog that it was, it stepped right up to that plate. Oh we’re the Bestower of Rights! Lets grant these Poor Unfortunate People what they so Deserve!
Phfft. If government wasn’t so arrogant, it wouldn’t be so capable of being evil like that.
