This ain’t 1776 all over again, is the idea. It could not play out in that fashion. It would be a lot of ugly festering.

A spiritual approach would be the most likely to produce peace, but it’s hard to do even fundamentalism right any more. It has its own styles, its own fads. Still, with an earnest acknowledgment that there is a God and that God wants both justice AND peace, blessings could still be seen.

The worst sin possible isn’t even stunts of government oppression.

Exactly. That would be the best route. People who wish for a 1776 or an 1861 have no idea of the bitterness and misery a civil war would be. Especially in this modern era where they turn into cell structured, very personal, and very bitter affairs.
They drag on for decades.
A spiritual awakening would indeed be the way. Yet, I cannot fail to notice that everything spiritual is under a full force multipronged attack from our government.

Religion is under almost constant attack by the revolutionary socialist government.

I think a spiritual awakening is an good, but not the full answer. Government is determined to fight the people, not the other way around. They way I see it the people are standing where they have always been, and the government has decided to relentlessly attack them.

SO it will be war unless either the people surrender all firearms, accept the end of religion, accept full government control of child raising. Accept full government control of their lives, diet, healthcare transportation, reduced free speech, universal surveillance and domestic spying, etc.
OR, unless the government gives up its designs.

Unfortunately, I do not see the people surrendering their last political strongholds, or the government throwing up its hands and walking back on their path.
