So, that's a problem... not sure how to make this more evident. Satan is bad. Following satan is bad. Following people who follow satan is bad. If you are merely concerned with going [back] to a free and sovereign state, you might have missed history class. It was Christianity and Roman government ideologies that invented this country. Christianity is necessary because you need a God who holds a perfect standard, one that we can't live up to, because then you know there is no individual whom you can trust to be the perfect leader, even when you have a group of them. Christianity does not have governmental laws nor regulations, in fact, quite the opposite. There is purposefully no governmental ideologies after Christ. So to form a government out of this view, you need to have another set of ideals along side of it, in come the "great thinkers." This is how the republic was born. You may ask, why not any other religion plus the "great thinkers." I would argue that a God who has a personal relationship with you, one whom you fear His consequences, and seek to do His will over your own selfish will, is the only God that could have been the reason. Thousands of years and powerful people, intelligent people, and wise people have lived on earth, at the very least. Yet not one has created a freedom loving republic until the United States of America. You have to acknowledge that there is something very right about the founding of this country. Satan may tell a thousand truths to help you believe one lie, and it is from the foundation of believing in his lies, that his trap is set and sprung. I can guarantee you this, you will not be ultimately fulfilled if you follow atheism nor satanism. You will have a longing in your heart, and if you so numb that part of your soul, then surely in the next life, that longing will be made evidently more clear, that there will be no confusion. And that, to me, is far more important than fixing this world, if I had to give up my soul to satan to do it, I would not, I would never, no never, forsake my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. John Adams.
You have to ask yourself what moral means, because the issue we find ourselves today, is that we stand on the shoulders of giants. From people like Martin Luther and John Calvin to our founding fathers, even as far back as Socrates and Aristotle, we have the privilege of living after them, reading their writings, or living in a world, with a world view, deeply shaped and molded by them. We then look back at their inadequacies and judge their character, pointing out their flaws. We are wrong to do this. If they were to look at America today and pick any person and deeply look at their life, they would be appalled by our lifestyle and mindsets. The question of morality first is the origin. It begins with something like the 10 commandments, while not necessarily new to the understanding of how things work, it laid the groundwork for a good and moral society, because it is a solid ideologue of what is "good." If "good" is open to interpretation, you may have leaders who believe it "good" to take over foreign nations because that leader is stronger than another. The problem with being "not malicious" is, what is malicious? What is the standard from which you draw? I can't trust mankind, given our long and evil history, of developing a "good" standard. Even our best intentions are mixed with selfish intentions. This is why religions exist, formed from a bedrock of a belief that is greater than ourselves. Atheists have no bedrock to form this standard upon, it is solely derived from within themselves. How can I trust their intentions? It may sound "good" but what if they worded it very carefully for an actual sinister set of standards to be placed. Then you base laws upon that standard, and there's really no control group. That's why you have to have a base, a standard. If a religion is wrong, and way off base to the point that no one follows it, it disappears. That's what the Jews expected to happen a few short years after Jesus had died. I'm not telling you that you have to be Christian or Jewish or X___. You do indeed have the freedom to believe what you want. Just know that the consequences for promoting non-religion or satanism or agnostic etc., you will inevitably destroy this nation, look where we are headed. Either a great awakening or a great reset. The great awakening if people wake up, the great reset if we accept life as "good" enough and look the other way when it's convenient. It's not immediate evil that you see, you have to look at long term consequences, and what is that derivative. The severe lacking in morals and the direction of this country are not an accident. The Q team appears to be trying to swing that pendulum so hard and so fast, that it breaks the pendulum. I hope it works.
I put good in quotations to separate good from good. "good" meaning right vs wrong as opposed to good meaning somewhere between meh and great. "good" also meaning perfectly good, not mostly good or usually good, absolutely perfect good.
