Well that ends that before it even begins. Other than our president I have no faith in our system or the people who exploit our freedoms calling themselves our “representatives.”

This has been a very revealing two years. I used to defend the Bush family against any criticism until their collective mask dropped and they were exposed as quite vile and nasty people.

I used to respect and admire Trey Gowdy, Mitt Romney and Jeff Sessions, how wrong can one person be and miss their lack of character?

I used to think that America and our American government was noble. It is depressing how naïve I am.

Day after day every thing that I held dear having to do with my country has been destroyed.

It was. But then, thanks in part to leftism, we started turning away from God. We thought we could go our own ways without repercussions. Look at us now: the internet, for example, seems to be a seething sea of hatred. STD's are rampant, due to promiscuity. People do go their own way, but sometimes, that particular way is evil. And so on . . .

Amazingly enough, we are still generally a Christian nation, but how many people simply "go through the motions" when going to church? My Uncle Bob, who is a devout minister, said he knows maybe 100(?) people at his old church who, if they all died at once, would bust Hell wide open.

(In full disclosure, I only recently turned to God and accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior, and I have not found a church yet, but hopefully soon . . .)

Our government now reflects the corruption in some of us. Even some of our churches have serious problems. But fortunately, we have a possible, if not probable, way out. We, as a nation, can undergo the experiential test of turning back to God, so that our land will be healed, as was said of Israel in the Old Testament, IIRC.
