Well, it was interesting to watch this pizzing match, but sadly predictable I am afraid.
One posted that the position staked out is purely political, and you must march to the ordered, almost ISIS like, eh?
It might not seem a big problem in the face of what we have staring at us, but it does reveal the separation, and possibly motivation, why we are so fragmented as a society.
I still go back to thinking this diversion of outcome by polices is part of the reasoning the founders sought a separation clause between church/belief and state. Bot is a glaring example of blind faith in his party, do not question policy of the party, like Catholics should not question the Pope.
The stubbornness and intolerance of mankind was not the result of religion, but the result of extending himself, first, over the welfare of others. When we expect a government to control every element of our lives, by default, it has been supplanted in all our lives, even if we agree, or not. By the very nature of absolute, (it) will cause fragmentation, just the opposite results of cohesiveness, or, as one, we were hoping for.
Diversity should be celebrated, as an opportunity to taste among many cultures, with a chance at learning anew, instead of being forced fed with laws mandating acceptance.
Government was never designed to be an absolute power.....
With the next presidential election between Hillary and Trump, we will see things continue to fall apart. We will witness hypocrisy as an art form, with a blind acceptance, if its our horse, without understanding we, as in you and me, are tearing at the foundation of civility, with our own bare hands.....
Simple questions, do you follow all the laws 100%? Or, is it easier to ignore those enacted by a party/court ( majority ruling ) you don't agree with? Are you always honest?
One of Steven Stills great earlier works. Read the lyrics. BTW, it was first recorded in December 5, 1966
"For What It's Worth"
There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn Nobody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down
What a field-day for the heat A thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's s time we stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down
Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, now, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down
Last question: Who is at fault?
PS: JOG, I understand your frustration. You share a lot here with the HOPE of enlightenment. But as a living, caring, being, we can't help but attach a little of ourselves to it. That is normal, we never want to be so cold that we can't cry with sadness on our heart.... Its what makes us human and separates us from all other creatures.
On the flip side, pride will destroy us. It subtracts from all it touches and can never deliver on the need why it was used in the first place....
Pride is probably responsible for more heartache, death, and destruction, than any natural catastrophe, or man made implement.
It is the tool wielded by deception. The blood will rise, I am afraid, until none is left to flow......
Share your heart, freely.... Your rest will be rewarding.
