Everybody knows it. God stopped blessing America and left us with our own sins. I am absolutely scared. I know Heaven/Armageddon sounds very boring and scary, really...the immortal spirit world is not my idea of paradise.
We must wake people up immediately before it's too late, but how??
Oooo, ooooo, I know (raising hand, waving frantically)
You put your right foot in
You take your right foot out
You put your right foot in
And you shake it all about..........
Did god stop blessing Amerikkka when we committed genocide against the ingenuous peoples?
Did god stop blessing Amerikka when we allowed minorities to be "hunted" and hung from every tree?
Did god stop blessing Amerikka when we became colonizers of the world and supplanted democracy for puppet regimes?
Did god stop blessing Amerikkka when unarmed minorities started being murdered?
Did god stop blessing Amerikkka when millions of its citizens were forced into poverty by economic greed?
SO, when was it exactly that god decided Amerikkka was no longer living up to Her morality code?
This.
I'm fascinated with people who have a concept of God - and who revere this conceptualized being - that tolerated slavery, child labor in dangerous conditions, the wholesale slaughter of indigenous peoples, the denial of the vote to women, the full legalization of marital rape, and so forth ... but now looks around and consenting adults of the same gender getting married, immodest dress, naughty words on television, pornography, and is no longer willing to tolerate things.
If that isn't the very picture of monumentally screwed-up priorities - not by some superman-in-the-sky but by people who invent such magical figures of authority and ascribe to them traits that mirror their own - then nothing is.
Now, now. Just because a guy who paints himself orange every morning is the probable GOP candidate it doesn't mean God stopped blessing America.
The political establishment has made sure there is no candidate on offer that deserves my vote. I predict that The Orange One will be surprisingly immune to Hillary (and Hillary will prove surprisingly vulnerable) and so a clown will be our next president as opposed to an entitled warmonger. Either way it will not be pretty.
For the most part the people get what they want and richly deserve. We have met the enemy, and he is us. The silly notion that we can prostrate ourselves before an invisible Republican in the sky and he will "make us great again" is as wacky as thinking it will work for a visible, orange Republican.
Yep, I saw that today too. He's so proud of himself for finally standing up for what he believes in. It brought a single tear to my eye. *snif*. If you want to know what Trump means when he says he wants to "make America great again", here it is, folks.
It's sad that so many Americans know so little about our history.
Yes, the government sent in troops... to arrest those who helped those minorities escape from captivity.
You think nuking 150,000 Japanese (mostly civilians) made up for America almost eradicating an entire indigenous culture?
No wonder we have a morality problem - too many Americans have been duped into ignorance and into believing ridiculous rationalizations for inexcusable offenses.
"Nuking" japan was the right thing to do. That ends that part. After that uneducated remark there is no need to address anything else. You really don't know what you are talking about. So continue on like an empty barrel down a rocky road.
So, when was it God started blessing America mor than any other nation? America is no worthy than any other nation of men, in His eyes, I wouldn't think. We , as a people have been as sinful as any other, perhaps more SL in many aspects. The conquering of the American I djans as no worse than any other conquering , mentioned anywhere in the Bible, nor has anything America has do e that could be considered a good and righteous thing been so noteworthy of Gods sole grace.
The Israelites are the only people/nation the Bible mentions as being "chosen, in any way, as favored of God, and He has.chastised and punished them on numerous occasions , but I recall no .e tikn of any national / people resembling American a being mentioned as "favored" of God. . Oh, Americans beseech His factor and blessing, as do many nations/peoples, but I don't see Him having turned away from A.eri a, in particular, any more than any of those others.
God turns away from evil and wrongdoing where ever it festers. I just don't believe God favors any one nation of men over any other. He favors his Faithful, wherever they live, not because of the governments that hold ;power over them.
