It’s a Spirit

So my wife and I decided we would drive up to St. Augustine for a couple of days next week.  Decided we better make sure all the attractions were open for business.  Most were, but the one main thing we wanted to do was take an open air trolley to experience the downtown district.  It’s open, but you have to wear a MASK.  Are you kidding me?  No way I give my hard earned money to a bunch of fear mongers.  When something happens and it make no sense, such as wearing a mask in the open air, it’s a spirit.  We are eat up with fear today.  I am so glad I am old.  I lived my life, I didn’t walk around waiting to be scared or triggered.  God help this soy-boy nation raised with participation trophies.

I was raised barefoot walking in a barnyard, riding barefoot in the back of a truck, drinking from a garden hose, not wearing a seat belt in a car.  I survived but not sure about the soy-boys.  Civilization might end in the near future, at least one you would want to live in.

Today

I had forgotten that Rod Rosenstein was going to be grilled by the Senate today on the Russia investigation and the Mueller report. I just turned it on for about 35 seconds of useless pandering. Let me say this, don’t bother watching you’re not gonna find out anything that you don’t already know. You know the old saying birds of a feather flock together…

Who knows maybe I’ll be wrong.
Still waiting for some high-ranking Democrat to come out and denounce the violence and destruction by the mobs. No one will, and of this I am certain.
It is funny and I’m sure just a coincidence that Biden, Clinton and the Dem leadership started wearing black mask last week before the riots started.
Why does New York arrest anyone if they turn them loose within a couple of hours.  Getting them back to the brick piles I guess.

Please don’t misunderstand my comment. Our leaders are making difficult decisions in difficult circumstances and we need to pray for them. My comments are more about how people have reacted. How willingly freedoms are being given up just to feel safe.  How many freedoms are people willing to give up in order to feel safe about any national foe, whether COVID-19 or the next threat?
A sense of social responsibility has entered our culture like I have never witnessed. Have you seen mask wearers at the grocery store look condescendingly at the non-mask wearers?  There seems to be a new breed developing of those who choose the good of the collective state and feel a sense of righteousness for their views and choices. If this choice of the collective over individual freedoms continues unstopped, we will be headlong into socialism and not even realize it.

This super social responsibility is fueling a perceived obligation that government is our ONLY provider for safety.  Christians who have a biblical worldview (and many don’t) should question the unchecked willingness of people to obey any authority other than the God of the Bible.
