Never seen the country more divided and it seems to me that the ones spewing more and more hate are the libs/progs/socialists/commies/dimokkkrats. More attacking and villifying than I can remember. Their idea of cooperation is doing it their way only with no questions asked. Now that's compromise they can believe in.

[Logical me]

With everything that is going on in our country, all Americans should be united.

Idiots cannot unite. Much of America has no idea what in the hell is going on and as long as King Obama provides for them they can continue to play like children.

[SkyPilot]

Not only is America too far gone, but so is the entire world.

When we see and attempt to digest all of the evil around us, and the collapse of America, we find it hard to discern, much less accept.

Unless, that is, we view it from the vantage point of God's foretelling of what will happen.

There is one word to describe why so much of America, and also the world, is spinning out of control: Deception.

The entire world is deceived by the Satan, and deceived by their own wicked hearts.

The deception is massive, and it is global.

America is falling apart economically, militarily, socially, morally, spiritually, legally, and politically.

Why do millions of Americans believe Obama, and everything the Democrats and the media say? Because of this:

"For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things."

Philippians 3:18-19 _______________________________________________

"We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one."

1 John 5:19

________________________________________________

If we attempt to 'rationalize' the mass deception of American and the world, we run into the great "BUT WHY?!" that perplexes, frustrates, and astounds us. It is only through the lens of God's truth that we can understand. Humanity is coming apart at the seams. So what are we to do?

Here is what we are to do: each one of us must go to God in prayer, and get ourselves right with Him in these remaining days. All of us are sinners, myself included. Each one of us has sins that need to be confessed to our Father. If one has not confessed to the Savior and asked for salvation, that is the first step. To those of us who have, we need to recommit ourselves to Him, confess, repent, and pray.

"Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. On account of these the wrath of God is coming."

Colossians 3:5-6

Look around us, what do we see? Diseases, pestilence, war, lawlessness, selfishness, immorality, and evil.

America will fall under the same Antichrist system that then entire world will fall under. We have no special escape clause.

But each one of does have the option, and privilege, to get right with God.

[P.O.E.]

liberal Democrats say Republican policies jeopardize the nation’s well-being

Keep in mind, when Democrats talk about "the nation", they really mean their "cushy government jobs".

[Gay State Conservative]

SECESSION

Is The Only Answer

The nation,the 50 states plus the District of Columbia,*is* too far gone.This nation,as currently constituted,is in a steep,irretrievable,state of decline.However,certain areas/regions of the nation *can* be saved.I'm thinking first of the "red" states.

Let California,New York,Illinois,Vermont,etc make EBT cards mandatory.Let them make all physicians employees of the central government.Let them annex Mexico,Guatemala,El Salvador,etc.Let them legally recognize twelve different "gender identities".Let them destroy their Department of Defense and replace it with a Department of Peace,Love and Inclusiveness.

We can do better.Far better.We learned how to do so from our parents,grandparents and earlier generations.

[DJ Taylor]

The Democrat Party is no longer a political party; it has now become nothing more than an Obama Cult. The closest historic parallel we have to this Obama Cult is followers of the Jim (James) Jones Cult who, at the behest of Jim Jones, willingly killed themselves with cyanide laced Kool-Aid. Also, both Jim Jones and Obama were smooth talking, charismatic “Community Organizers,” and both were/are avowed Marxist Communists with membership in the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). The only difference between the Obama Cult and the Jim Jones Cult, other than the enormous size of the Obama Cult, is Jim Jones offered his followers poisoned Kool-Aid at the end, and Obama is offering his followers revolution, but the end result is the same: they lead their followers to self- destruction.

[Sequoyah101]

Short answer, YES, I think so.

I don’t have cable but I’m in a hotel that does have it this week. Including History Channel, Discovery, Learning etc. the show selection ranges from simply foolish and useless to absolutely insipid, dumb and insulting to the what I thought should pass for just barely average intelligence. People who are shallow as a piece of paper are portrayed as successful and to be emulated. I grasp at the little light that there are normal people that consider such drivel as a sideshow freak attraction in some way. If this is the pop culture of the day that represent upcoming generations and it is pervasive we are totally sunk.

[TexasRepublic]

Yes. Our forefathers would have been shooting by now.

[Georgia Girl 2]

We are too far gone to get back through the ballot box. At some point this will be decided by a resolution conflict.

[trebb]

The country is more divided because Obama brought his crowbr for that specific purpose - the question is whether he pries things to the point where it throws us into an actual civil war.

[wardaddy]

Yes

We laid these building blocks nearly one hundred years ago and its just evolved worse culturally

We fell into our own trap

[greene66]

Yes, past the point of no return.

As much as I sometimes like to join in and wistfully ponder the potential of a Cruz or Palin presidency to turn things around, America is in an obvious death-spiral, which makes the whole topic of politics increasingly moot to me. A government that is devolving into a corrupt, socialist banana-republic, and a culture that has become totally sick and depraved freak-show.

This America has no relation whatsoever to the country I knew and pledged allegiance to. An America that embraces such degeneracy as fag-marriage is not an America that I will stand with or fight for.

[txrefugee]

This is happens when a nation becomes morally bankrupt. The ungodly are in charge and will destroy the nation. We are warned, “put not your trust in princes.”

Fortunately, we are in this “vale of tears” for only a short time on our way to God’s perfect Heaven. Read God’s Word every day to strengthen your faith in these testing times. Pray to God with your family to strengthen each other on the way to Heaven. You cannot lose when you trust in God!

[driftless2]

As far as the feeling that regardless of party, the great majority of Americans still believe in the principles of what made America great....no. Fifty years ago you could say that. My parents were probably typical of many Dems fifty years ago. Socially conservative and proud of their country.

Today many Dems seek to establish a quasi-socialist country and dismiss the achievements of the Founding Fathers. No there's no way a leftist like Obama could have gotten nominated much less elected fifty years ago. George McGovern, who was a WWII war hero and ran for president in 1972 in the wake of an unpopular war running on a leftist/anti-war platform got stomped.
