Biden and trump both come out. Biden says “hi folks” and you can hear him like he’s already mic’d up.
Trump walks in and says something and you can’t hear it.
I couldn’t shake how odd it felt to me after hearing the emphasis on the mic’s at the podium having mute buttons. Probably nothing just thought it was interesting
Yes. Everything is a mirror between the people wearing blinders still and those who are not.
How can they keep their blinders on is my question.
No matter how this ends this year many people will stop taking the so called higher road to keep the peace with these intolerant people.
We have to break their word spells.
“Stop taking the high road with these intolerant people” = “become more intolerant of these intolerant people” = “accept that intolerance is a negative trait” = “hypocrisy increases”
Intolerance is good if it is of bad actions. Bigotry is good if it is of bad ideas. Hate is good if it is toward evil, per the Bible:
Amos 5:15 Hate evil, love good, And establish justice in the courts. It may be that the LORD, the God Tzva'ot, will be gracious to the remnant of Yosef."
Words become gibberish words in terms of connotation when you can’t be against them without being them. It’s a linguistic Chinese finger cuff trap to increase hypocrisy and confusion, which sow division.
How they keep their blinders on is THE question. I had a post a while back about how apparently some large portion of humanity doesn’t have an inner monologue, but I don’t think that’s THE root, just a branch of the corrupted tree. Is our job to lead them somehow to act in righteousness, though they haven’t evaluated it of their own accord? Is the inner monologue really a ongoing discussion of our souls with the Holy Spirit? Does that mean they simply haven’t been saved by the Lord of Hosts? (why that Name? What is a “host”?)
To be determined…
Interesting stuff.
In a way it is in our DNA?
Maybe something also to do with being born again.
A host is one who entertains or interestingly also a living thing which parasite live.
For a Christian it might be said we live in Christ and man is nothing more than a parasite.
I do understand what you mean by confusion. This is why it is better to be quiet. On this forum there is many who are way more intelligent and wise than I am.
Mathew 10:41 is important to me.
There are many righteous and many prophets out there. How many have received their reward? How many have lost what they should have been?
Whoa.
Hadn’t thought of it in that direction. That’s wild! The flesh feeds off the spirit!!
Yeah I’ve also decided that I’m not wise enough to operate outside of the autists here, and choose to keep my battlefield engagement outside of our “back-office” stuff relatively limited, these days. Previously, I’d confront anyone on any bad idea at any time, as if that was constructive. A lot of people just can’t handle it. Could very easily be me, but if so, I don’t know how to change how I engage.
