I think this adequately describes my emotions at the moment of inspiration
It seems the media these days is full of news… about the economy, the democratic agenda, the republican agenda, whats happening on Wall Street, how somebody got away with something and everybody else had to pay for it. In some ways.. its good to know the truth about things… to be informed so that you can make good decisions and survive in an increasingly “dog eat dog” world.
I tend to enjoy the social media circle to some extent..I use twitter, facebook, most often and I like to share my favorite websites on Stumbleupon.com . I like being connected to people, my family, friends, and just the occasional acquaintance… I even check in on a few enemies occasionally to see what they are doing in their mad scientist laboratories!
Recently however my social media has become crowded with… how do I say it nicely RAVING LUNATICS! it seems everywhere I go I am barraged by virtual sign waving screaming crowds of “conservative protesters” they fill my normally entertaining social media with “this is why obama is evil”, “this is further proof of obamas evil plan” and “here is even more proof! he was actually born in Australia and they wouldn’t take him!” the list of antichrist predictions, conspiracy theories, petitions, videos, crappy photo montages attached to sappy music, are more than I can stand! Please PLEASE!!! I really hoped that the community of Christians was made up of more than this! the number of people continuously regurgitating unconfirmed and often stupidly one-sided views is absolutely ridiculous!
I am not here to discuss whether I agree with Obama’s ideals or how he is running the country. Honestly the fact that anyone can keep this flaming runaway wagon of a country within the white lines is a feat of unbelievable skill… America is so fickle that we can single-handedly will bring about our own destruction with or without ANY president’s help.
So you didn’t get the president that you wanted, you are mad.. you lost your 401K, and you may have to pay for someone else’s insurance, or foot the bill for their bonus while you bail them out. So you may pay higher taxes, the president may be a fraud, he may be the “AntiChrist”, he may be secret friends with someone that is completely vile and distasteful to you. So you are angry… about all of this… but why? why are you angry? did you expect the world to just come whimpering to your feet and give you every thing you wanted? Who the heck asked you how things should go? Since the beginning of time tyrants, dictators, coups, and all around nasty empires have risen and fallen… and no one has ever stopped to ask… “oh… so mister John Q Christian, what should we do next? do you like how things are working out for you?” America is NOT YOUR COUNTRY!!! HEAVEN IS YOUR COUNTRY!!! get it through your thick heads! this country is not a “CHRISTIAN” country! It is the same heathen country that it has always been. Sure many of the founders were Christians, Almost every great empire has been founded on good ideas and good principals… because they work! But man is always self seeking and ultimately undermines all the good intentions and even the best laid plans can work to benefit the corrupt. Why do you insist on meddling in the politics of a country that you don’t even belong to?
So again… you are angry, you feel betrayed, you feel taken advantage of, you feel like things are not going the way you like… Get Over It!!! Focus on what matters, people are jobless, people are homeless, people are hopeless, people are directionless!!!
Instead of just adding to the confusion how about you step away from your stupid, Protest-a-matic, Spam-a-holic, mailing list and actually help the people that are hurting! This is an opportunity to promote “LEGAL IMMIGRATION” to the Kingdom of Heaven!
