Politics
Jesus and the Power Domains
If you’re like me, you might find it difficult at times to stay positive and balanced while gazing at the precipitous decline of Western and American culture around you.
Watching the news is depressing. Evil forces have been unleashed in our world (through human choices) to destroy people and nations from within. It wouldn’t take much for nuclear bombs and cyber attacks to strike from outside.
How do we stay faith full while watching the deterioration around us?
Here’s a helpful perspective on Jesus and the Power Domains.
Progressing Towards Communism
The word “progressive” now used in American politics sounds positive–like taking wonderful steps towards human virtue and prosperity.
But 21st century progressive politics has divided the USA, destroyed the American family, defunded the police, created an open border, brought sexual and gender confusion, accelerated violence in the cities, and created generational despair.
These consequences, and many others, are anything but progressive–they’re regressive in every way.
We’re only progressing towards communism.
Representative Government Makes a Comeback
In our world of increasing deception and group think, I often lean on Bill O’Reilly’s “No Spin News” as a solid news source. It’s worth the monthly fee ($5.25) to get an honest view of national and world events.
I agree with O’Reilly about 90% of the time because our worldviews are closely aligned. But this week I disagreed with him on the House of Representatives “Speaker” vote. He thought it was a waste of time with too much grandstanding.
I view it as representative government making a much needed comeback.
