The way things are going in this country of ours is frankly unsustainable.
Democracy, if it can still be said to exist, is being lost to greed and powerful interests.
I am not saying that this is a new thing, it's just still happening.
Maybe worse now than ever before.
Christianity is also on the decline.
Some would say "thank God" being fully aware of the irony of that statement.
Others may lament to lagging morality of our nation.
Of course, the truth is that if Jesus were to somehow appear on Earth today, he would neither recognize nor approve of what is now known as "Christianity" in this nation.
In fact, he would condemn it.
If I am wrong, find me something that Jesus said that proves it. Show me where he supports any of the mega-churches, the politicization of morality, and endorsement of policies that disenfranchise the poor and increase the riches of the wealthy.
Jesus never spoke of homosexuality.
The church does.
Jesus did speak at great length condemning the rich.
The church does not.
This is not to say anything that means anything.
Christians will fight me on this. They always do. They will spew out some illogical clap trap about historical context or some other bullshit.
They only use "historical context" when it works in their favor.
Maybe we all do that.
Maybe we all are just changing reality so that it better fits our aims.
Regardless, it doesn't matter.
None of that is what I was trying to write here.
What I am trying to say is that if history has shown us anything, it is that we are now due for a seismic change in the way we do things.
We are primed for a revolution.
We are overdue for a reformation.
I know I am not the one to do it,
but I've got my eyes and ears open.
I am looking for an opportunity.
I am waiting for a movement I can believe in.
