Who ordained that? Mere man? Who is less than nothing in God’s sight?

There are godly ways to do things and they win. I know too little about the attempt to bring Boehner down to opine on whether it was godly. But the ancient Hebrews didn’t win every battle either — sometimes they lost for a short season so that they could see the benefit of doing things in a godly way.

Well let’s see. It’s a government of people by people with rules written by people to control people and a bunch of people tried to change which people was in charge of their group of people and they failed and that people is punishing by giving them new jobs within that people constructed government jobs with less prestige among other people which will reduce the number of people that vote for them allowing them to be replaced by people that will better respect the people in charge.

So yeah, mere man, because it’s a mere man thing. But reality goes on. Two years from now we’ll be inaugurating a GOP president, hopefully he won’t be a douche, and two years after that the Dems will have big gains in both chambers, and then the GOP pres will be re-elected, and then more dem gains, then a dem president, then GOP gains, and somewhere in there Boehner because eventually enough people will blame him for enough stuff.

It’s politics. Even when good guys do it it’s probably not godly, because it’s politics, and politics are about the accumulation of power for the sake of having power.

Welcome to reality. It’s kind of icky. Gotta run, have fun in God’s light, which won’t change the fact that Boehner won.
