conflict – politics

// October 18th, 2008 // My Life

OK,   I am looking at my post on politics, and I can see how it could be inflammatory. I am not condemning folks that are political. I just find the position awkward, the problem is that my personal belief is that everyone should be moral, ethical, good intentioned human beings!  but legislating that type of morality is #1 impossible, and #2 (to me) conflicts with Gods design for free will! All of the sudden I find my self sounding like a liberal! Again I realize that laws to legislate basic morality are necessary, but I struggle with how far that should go. I can only go with what I see and what I see is that the further we go trying to enforce Morality in our society it backfires on us and actually accomplishes the opposite.

examples:
  • prohibition served only to increase the hostilities between the two sides and led to the increase of organized crime. 
  • the antagonistic political attacks against homosexuality have actually caused an equally aggressive counter attack on the values and morals of this country.  instead of living peacefully now some homosexual activists are aggressively attacking every facet of society to promote their lifestyle.
This only proves what we have always known.  ”tell me I can’t do it and I will” It is an inherent tendency in man tracing all the way back to the tree of knowledge of good and evil! 
So what do you think???    Come on!!    weigh in on this!!   Flame me if you will.  The truth can and will come out!!!
