Worshipping worldly aspirations.
Shout out to Senator John Kennedy for coining the term
“weaponized ignorance.” Virtue signalers. Transgender activists. Global warming
disciples. Defenders of illegal alien criminals. Hamas supporters, antisemites,
and Islam lovers. Socialism aficionados. Public education indoctrinators.
Avowed leftists. Race baiters. The ever leftward leaning media. Useful idiots
all. Ignorance can take many forms and can be weaponized in a variety of behaviors.
Intelligence is not a prerequisite for the activist class.
“The vocabulary of the political left is fascinating. For
example, it is considered to be 'materialistic' and 'greedy' to want to keep
what you have earned. But it is 'idealistic' to want to take away what someone
else has earned and spend it for your own political benefit or to feel good
about yourself.” Thomas Sowell
Intelligence is definitely not required for public service. Perhaps
candidates need to pass a test prior to placement on the ballot. This would absolutely
improve the quality of our elected representatives, but a better-informed
public would be able to prevent the absurdity that exists today.
“The best defense of democracy is an informed
electorate.” Thomas Jefferson
The right to peacefully protest and to petition the
government for a remedy for their grievances is enshrined in the 1st
Amendment to the US Constitution. Leftist funded anarchists, paid protesters,
and self-proclaimed do-gooders attend well organized and often violent demonstrations.
Those are not peaceful protests. Those demonstrations are not to petition
government for valid grievances. Those are insurrections, carefully planned to
create chaos and organize a rebellion.
“Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.” Isaac
Asimov
Far too many of our public education institutions allow, or
perhaps encourage, indoctrination of students to leftist ideology. Rather than educate
those students to be productive members of society, they create automatons incapable
of rational thought, spouting slogans spoon fed to them by leftist “educators.”
Public schools in the US are failing. Test scores are falling below those of some
third world countries. Our future leaders are emerging from the rot ingested
from our schools and universities.
“In addition to an education, kids were supposed to
graduate with some basic values, self-discipline, and life skills. A little
common sense wouldn't hurt either. Our schools don't teach that anymore. Instead,
we're more concerned about kids having self-esteem and feeling good about
themselves than we are about preparing them for real life. The politically
correct crowd has taken over our schools, and as a result we are failing our
children.” Donald J. Trump
Rational people operate within the rules of civil society
and tend to make logical decisions. Irrational people make poor decisions and
defy the rules of order without regard to the consequences of their actions.
The left has created a generation of irrational people that are used to further
the cause of fundamentally transforming this nation into something it was never
intended to be. Irrational hatred drives the speech and actions of these
deranged leftists. And that hate has spread to erstwhile “normal” liberals and
democrats. Unhinged attacks upon the very freedoms protecting the citizens of
this nation push society ever closer to a new civil war.
“Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality
and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his
objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as
beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true.”
Martin Luther King Jr.
The democrat party has decided that hatred of all things
Trump is a winning strategy. Fact is, that there are no policies from the
democrats that are positive for the citizens of the United States. Their
platform, especially their obsession with promoting abortion and transgenderism
for children, is void of anything positive. They have devolved into incessant
ranting about Trump being an existential threat to democracy. It is truly sad
that so much hatred is misdirected when democrats should be offering an
alternative plan other than simply opposing anything Trump and Republicans
propose.
“There will always be dissident voices heard in the land,
expressing opposition without alternatives, finding fault but never favor,
perceiving gloom on every side and seeking influence without responsibility.”
John F. Kennedy.
The legacy media continues to trumpet opinion as if it is
reporting the news objectively. When facts are omitted or ignored when they
fail to bolster the left’s argument, journalists fail in their duty to report
and inform the public. As the Fourth Estate, they are to hold the powerful
accountable, for both parties. That is about as far from the truth as more than
90% of legacy news reporting is negative toward President Trump and Republicans.
When will people realize that they are being spoon fed a narrative that is
detrimental to civil society?
“The press is called the Fourth Estate. It is definitely
a power, but to misuse that power is criminal.” Mahatma Gandhi.
Islamophobia is cited almost as often as “white” people are
decried as racists. Wake up and smell the roses, Muslims intend to overrun the
western world, eliminate our freedoms, and institute sharia law. Sharia law
will prohibit homosexuality, freedom of expression, and end all other
religions. Yet leftists fail to understand that they have no place in an
Islamic society and would likely face a death sentence should Muslims come to
power.
”Islam is more than a religion, it's much more than a
religion, it's a way of life, it is a one-party political system that has a
very elaborate legal system that can put you to death if you leave it.” Reza
Aslan.
Secularism is encroaching upon the Judeo-Christian values
that this nation was founded upon. This is the very reason behind the chaos
that is overwhelming western society. Secularism lacks the moral compass that Christianity
provides. Secularism denies our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, ordaining the worship
and love of self over the worship and love of God. The one who had no sin that
sacrificed Himself, took upon our sin, and rose again so that we may have eternal
life is the solution to all that ails our society. All He wants is our heart. Follow
Jesus and hatred melts. Follow Jesus and love triumphs. Follow Jesus and reject
the ignorance that leads to chaos and death. Love one another as He loves us. This
must be proclaimed loudly and proudly from the pulpit. God’s will is recorded in
black and white, not in shades of gray. Pastors must call out what is evil. We are
sheep in need of spiritual guidance. If the pulpit is silent or lacks the
courage to call out what is wrong in God’s eyes, that pastor not only fails in
his/her duty to properly serve the Lord, but risks losing their sheep to the
evil of the world.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,
that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the
world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes
in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been
condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the
world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds
were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does
not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But
whoever practices the truth comes into the Light, so that it may be seen
clearly that what he has done has been accomplished in God.” Jesus Christ.
Follow Jesus, the light of the world!
