Everyone on the panel just stared at him, though Maria and Dagen McDowell tried to talk to him. He couldn't be convinced otherwise.
He sounded like he was on a different planet.
When in such moments, when they fall under that spirits influence, they really do sound like they are from a different reality.
Whatever that spirit is, it will quickly take them from zero to insanity unless its gas is gently released and its emotions deflated.
As both a friendly non-combatant and an observer, Im trying to understand the relationship between political emotions and a need for drama, almost like an addiction, that seems to animate and drive them.
Ive seen the same things within my own self during elections past, but I have since experienced how Christ and His Holy Spirit actually do give us their Peace, as well as giving us Truth, which keeps us free from deception as long as we keep it for our reference.
Coincidently, each of these friends arent current Christians. They are demonrats first and seasonal Christians or Christians in childhood only as a distant second.
In each case, they have their own rational disconnect from and hostility toward Christian beliefs and are easily riled up by social justice rhetoric.
At the same time, each and all are good hearted people, but with hardened hearts as well.
I pray we each will be graced with His Spirit of Understanding, for how else will we repent or even desire to?
