The foundations of this country being rooted in Christian teachings, I'm going to start by citing the New Testament, Book of Mark, Chapter Three: "If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand."
Look at the shape this country has gotten itself into. Not only have we forgotten the teachings of the Bible and the fundamental principles upon which America was founded, but we've allowed evil ways to insert themselves into our everyday lives; they have destroyed our moral compasses in the process and in so doing, they have turned man against man, woman against woman. The country has been fractured over and over again by dissent and disagreement. And those who know right from wrong have somehow lost the spine to stand up and insist that we return to the Biblical teachings that made this country great.
Our national resolve to stand united has not only been decimated, it's been almost totally destroyed by rancorous, bitter disagreement and we have been truly weakened to the point that our house is not going to be able to stand much longer.
The people in whom we placed our trust to guide us have shred that trust to tiny, unrecognizable bits and pieces. Those who practice to deceive are surely bound to be bitten by their fellow snakes. Take this impasse over healthcare for example: We have a President who swore to the people that he would repeal and replace ObamaCare. Yet, when the House passed a bill that merely applied patches to a horrible piece of legislation... a bill that neither repealed or replaced ObamaCare, our President was supportive. In other words, he either never intended to repeal and replace, or he lost the spine to stand up for what he promised.
We have a Republican House and a Senate that swore upon holy oaths that if we, the people, would only hand them the majority of power, they would proceed to repeal and replace ObamaCare immediately. We handed them that power and they set about creating bills not to repeal or replace bad law, but to tweak it and call it by another name. Either they lied to us up front, or they lack the spine to live up to their promises.
How could their belligerent disregard for their promises and for the will of the American people have ended up in anything else BUT failure?
We have a nation that is divided against itself and a government that could not care less. What is worse is that we have a country full of citizens who seem perfectly willing to set their Bibles in the closet underneath the dirty laundry and go along with the program.
Satan must certainly be relishing our future.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
