I’ve been a fan of having a big picture viewpoint for my entire life and have never listened to practically anything without questioning the intent. History reveals much when one pursues it and understands the connections between everything, the rise of the propaganda machine and the programming to worship celebrity, money, degrees, and materialism. I first saw this in the 60s when girls went ape over the Beatles. Could not understand it, nor any of the efforts to influence other elements. So, to a certain extent all of my life since then. I was a teenager then and during my career got accused of having common sense all of the time. I got active and focused when Fox News called AZ before the western states’ polls closed in 2020. Every day until today and whatever comes next. One of my best friends told me last week that I’ve been talking about this for years and nothing’s happened. She still watches the fake news. But, she will be awake soon and then my role changes to care for those suddenly awakened as that will be traumatic.
Yes, the programming on much of the population runs deep. We are at war, but I believe we've hit critical mass with the Great Awakening and it now it's about marching ahead and being relentless in that march.
Keep fighting the good fight and let's make sure we continue to hammer the enemy with the truth and reality.
This all started with the renaissance and the rejection of God as the creator and sustainer of all life. People came to believe that the human brain was the source of all knowledge. Even among those who still believed in God, most had every confidence that we could figure everything out, how and why everything came to be. There would come a day when there were no mysteries left. Humanism was the core unifying idea of the renaissance and the key to the ultimate solidification into secularism.
Darwin's theory of evolution allowed free thinkers to think themselves free of all need for God as an explanation of origins. By spooling out history over hundreds of thousands of years, then millions, and then into billions of years, scientists could speculate on the origins of everything. God then became beside the point. Psychology and sociology was then able to speculate away the origins of all manner of human behavior including guilt and responsibility. If we're not answerable to anyone, we're not answerable for anything. We can do anything that we can get by with.
It was at the height of the renaissance that Niccolò Machiavelli wrote his cynical treatise, The Prince. Might makes right. Anyone and everyone could learn how to carve out however big or small world they could conquer.
Hey thank you for that very informative response Jesse. I agree without God's leadership everything goes downhill really fast.
It always seems like man thinks he can solve all the problems and figure out all the mysteries of life, but at the end of the day all he manages to do is make things worse until he turns to God.
I believe our society is going through a Great Awakening and in that awakening many people are turning to God for his infinite wisdom and grace.
I know I have and I'm grateful for his guidance. Thank you again for your awesome feedback.
As Joe Kronner always reminds us, ‘God Wins’ and much of the awakening goes to the anons and others (like yourself) gifted by God for this very time, place and war!🙏
Wow, thank you for your kind words and support. We can get this mess sorted. It won't happen overnight, but if we continue on in good faith good things will happen.
Indeed the history of fallen man. The more I learn about anything, the more questions I have….my life’s pattern that I truly only know glimpses of anything.🤪
You asked me to leave a personal comment to your fantastic article. I grew up with my father having a gag gift aerosol spray can labeled "Bullshit Repellant" with a large bull. Had some funny sayings I can't remember on when and how to use. Being a person of a certain age living in a city (Not NY), loving the pop culture with a cadre of friends to see rock concerts, movies, played trivial pursit, etc.
I realized in the election of 2020. Obviously being much younger and impressionable I waited with baited breath- listening to pbs radio for chrissakes- all day at my cubicle for weeks for the right outcome. However, my American b.s. detectors went off that hey, Bush Really Won! Why? Because Gore lost his own state, Tennessee, Jeb did recuse himself, the ballots were originally recounted due to policy before Gore's challenges, etc. Why is Gore fighting this already? Because of an obsession with power and RESPECT FOR THE PEOPLE'S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS BE DAMNED. Then I realized sound bites are not the whole sound, where's the details? And that's where I found the devil. Most lefties have very little attention spans and I have a pack of information I spent the time to prove they don't know what is really going on. They also are still habituated to trust the media. Look at the boomers still getting a paper and watching CNN. Finally, they have a different set of priorities. They don't care about the trespasses on our constitutional rights because there's a good reason to do that, i.e. covid. Long enough. God bless you and pray for our country 🙏
