It seems to me that there are forces at work that are trying to continue the division and identity politics in our nation. I'm not looking for us all to agree on anything, but the words are escalating into actions. People, even college age students, are ignorant of our history and take the inflammatory words of a few and believe them. The media is full of lies, deceit and purposeful omission.
So what are these forces? Is it highly funded revolutionary organizations that would love to see our country crumble? Is it disassociated masses of ill-informed morons? Is it a swamp filled with self-serving politicians? Well, maybe it is all of the above. But I believe that all are influenced by the adversary. For as our society fragments, so does organized religious practice. The glue that had been holding this country together since the Pilgrim's set foot on the continent has been rooted in God.
Today we are pushing God out of our schools, military, prisons, work place, sports and our lives. The country without such a binding force is doomed to implode. I pray that we can see our way clear as a nation to worship God and respect each other.
May God Bless our great nation.
