Yeah, one of those guys just died in Dallas.
I figure we can do without 'em.

Many people are understandably dismayed by the the Supreme Court's refusal to hear several gay marriage cases effectively codifying gay marriage in several states.
While it is certainly disappointing, it isn't really unexpected.
I hate to break this news to you, especially if you are one of these people who think that this country, a country founded with limited government, separation of powers, and federalism, is still recoverable by normal means, it isn't.
The U.S. as we knew it and understood it is gone and it isn't coming back, at least not by regular constitutional means. Nope.
Federalism, limited government, checks and balances, all gone. We now have a rapidly increasing federal behemoth with unlimited powers granted to itself rapidly centralizing power in the person of the president (I don't say office, but person). All of which is hell bent on running every part of your life including your morality, all aided and abetted by an unelected black-robed oligarchy.
You can elect all the Republicans you want, do you really think they will change anything? Not a chance.
Nope the U.S. is done. And you know what? That may be a good thing. Such government, even one founded on the principles of limited constitutional powers and federalism, can only work for a people for whom Christ is their King. That isn't us.
I don't know where we go from here, but I suspect that it is bad. I continue to believe I have a moral obligation to behave in a lawful way, but I no longer consider myself bound in loyalty to a government that has has moved beyond the powers granted to it. Morality, decency, and legitimate freedom will not be restored to Americans through election, it will take other means. I believe the world will undergo a crisis incomprehensible to most and what will emerge from the other side is a different people. That different people will choose a different government.
Until then, we have chosen tyranny and tyranny is what we will get.
We have been living in Babylon for quite some time.
Amen.
“....it’s not the US that is in trouble, it is western civilization as we know it.”
.
Western civilization imported enough 3rd world migrants to become like them.
The destruction is almost complete and irreversible.
yes, that is another possibility of chaos.
PRAY for the CONVERSION of ALL to CHRIST.
It’s 1814 all over again.
Amen.
Yep!
"You can elect all the Republicans you want, do you really think they will change anything? Not a chance."
True!
Look for more of the southern hemisphere Christians, from nations that the USA and west sent out missionaries to bring the good news of Jesus to, NOW will be the ones sending missionaries themselves to bring the very same good news of Jesus.
The destruction is almost complete and irreversible.
I see it around me. I can see today’s world somewhat through 1990 eyes. Part of it is my elimination of TV from my life in 1997. I’m no longer a part of pop culture and I am not seeing the changes “incrementally” as so many are.
The world truly has gone mad, but in the way a mob goes mad and does things that the participants would never have the guts, or motivation to do on their own.
If it was not for the seriousness of it, it would make excellent entertainment. And I feel a little guilty admitting this, but sometimes it does anyway.

After all this time, I still get you and Lazamataz mixed up and cannot always remember who is serious and who is putting me on.
Just remember, we are both serious.
And we are both putting you on.
HumbleGunner Version 1.4 is the Artificial Intelligence Routine that I wrote back in 1998. 'He' is modeled after my brain, but functions independently 24 hours per day.
This is judicial activism at it’s worst .The constitution entrusts state legislatures elected by the people to define marriage consistent with the values and morels of the citizens.
TED CRUZE
HumbleGunner Version 1.4.
I think 'he' turned gay.
Seeking out fairies of any specific color is insensitive and racist.
Been saying the same thing since I started posting here.
Not always a popular view.
Ping me when you talk about me.
