RB, if everything I believe is imaginary and paranoid... then how do you explain the government allowing the destruction of this country from within. Poor economic policies, repeated, allowing lower tariffs to destroy our own industry, the methodical destruction of religion in this country, the destruction of families, spending that makes no sense while schools go bankrupt and families are torn apart, spending that puts generations so far in debt we can NEVER get out of.... all that is coincidence? There is no master plan? If I were wanting to destroy a country and knew I couldn't do so militarily I'd work on destroying it from within and this is a good blueprint on how to do it.

I'm still all for it. Speaking metaphorically here, being torn apart is necessary in order to take responsibility for putting oneself together. But you already knew that. Yeah, I've been back for some time. It's just that I don't have enough testosterone to spend a lot of time in Tilted Politics. Just being in here makes me feel like coming all over myself.

The church in the past in times like these have given people hope.
I am a big believer in finding your own responsibility and building or rebuilding your life (in recovery that is important). However, history shows people will flock to religion because it offers hope, forgiveness and a feel of belonging.
But when you destroy that and people cannot have faith in government and they are too beaten down to believe in themselves because negativity flows rampantly... then what is the solution?
That is where we are headed. I'm sure to some who believe that they are far smarter and saner can call things coincidence and come up with logical reasons as to what we should do... but in the end those logical reasons are lost when people begin to panic and are living in such negativity they can't take it anymore.
Reality is how we interpret and believe things to be. My reality sees a very grim future based on what is happening and the fact it isn't getting better in anyway.
