  Democrats, Republicans and Religionists
We are getting close to having a theocratic government here imposing its values and morals on all of this country while professing individualism and freedom. It's not just Democrats and Republicans. Now it's fundamentalist/evangelicals as almost a political party too, and that should worry everyone because they don't agree on what time it is, and fight among themselves for power and followers as they gain strength and influence all in the name of their brand and version of God. This is what we see in the Middle East between Sunnis, Shites, secularists (a few) and others. It doesn't take long to dismantle the underpinnings of a country, and to have hatred and mistrust in the guise of religion cause conflict. Look at nearly every mainstream denomination, already weakened by loss of revenue, members and attendance and fussing, feuding and dividing over various "cultural" i.e. moral and values questions and conflicts. Everybody KNOWS they are right because it's all about THEIR religion.

Been out of pocket and it may be a few more days up to a week. Glad to ahve these to reflect upon as I can.
 
This is a good post, we are in reverse progress with these fundamentalists taking over.
 
You're kidding right? A "theocratic government?" Get a hold of yourself and think about what is happening in the world. The greatest threat to true freedom is moral relativism.

I'm not sure what this blog is all about yet, but I do know that everything and everybody is "wabi sabi", which means incomplete, impermanent and imperfect. There now. Did that help? If not, I hope you enjoy my blog anyway.
