The path forward

Where do we go from here?

It is a great question and one that must be asked then answered.

Our political landscape is in dire need for remodel. The most recent events prove that the path we are on is not only unmanageable, it is catastrophic. 

Every civilization fails. Every. Single. One. Does that mean that we must follow suit? Must we just properly manage the decline? Is it possible to turn all of this around?

We most certainly can turn it around. Do we have the fortitude to do so? Will we have that fortitude? I cannot answer that question but we can lay out what is necessary and prudent to turn the tide. 

To solve the problem, the answer is not complicated. To accept that answer and apply simple principles to correct the wrong, that is entirely different. 

We have ancient answers to modern problems. There is nothing new under the sun, as is said in that great ancient Text. 

Walk with me as we step through the answers. If we decide to actually right the wrongs? That's entirely up to each individual and their fortitude.

Harris and Trump

By
  Politics, oh the joy! Harris and Trump. Republicans and Democrats. Left and right. Freedom and...freedom. Well, that's what they say. To listen to our major parties rhetoric, each one is right and each one is wrong. The truth of the matter is that both are, uh, both? Both have presidential qualities and both have proposed policies that are, honestly, good and bad.  Trump is an overgrown child. An intelligent and successful overgrown child but a child nonetheless. One could argue wither his success is through bully tactics or business acumen, but he is successful. He is childish in his mannerisms and his speech, as far as public appearance can be perceived. It is interesting that his child-like public persona has been somewhat scaled down this election cycle. It is possible that his campaign finally understands that  middle-of-the-road voters have no desire to have the leader of the free world sound like a middle school bully in recess trying to take someone's lunch mone...

Conservatism

By
Edmund Burke, Portrait  c.  1769 Conservatism is a political and social philosophy that promotes the maintenance of traditional institutions and supports minimal and gradual change in society over time. Check my link page! Core Principles: Conservatism as a philosophy is centered around several core principles: Tradition : Conservatives value the customs, conventions, and continuity of societal organizations as a guide for the present and future. Tradition is seen as a cumulative wisdom of the past that should be honored and preserved. Order and Stability : A stable social order is deemed essential for the well-being of society. Conservatives often emphasize the need for a hierarchical structure and clear authority lines to maintain stability. Individual Responsibility : Personal responsibility and self-reliance are emphasized. Conservatives believe that individuals should take responsibility for their actions and welfare rather than relying on government assistance. Rule of Law : ...

Have we lost our minds?

By
 Have we? Much of what has transpired in the last few weeks borders on absurd. We have: the Delta variant of COVID that is locking people's minds up, a government who spent countless lives, hours, and treasure on an Afghanistan government only to see it topple like a game of dominoes, conspiracy theorists saying Trump is part of Armageddon, and I'm sure I'm missing a few things. COVID is real. The Delta variant is real. Our reaction to it? Have we lost our minds? Mandatory vaccines? Really? Is anyone looking at the real data instead of the talking heads?  Afghanistan was a mess from the beginning. Hey, Russia went broke fighting in that land. In my opinion, we never should have occupied it at all; so let's just leave it all for the bad guys oh and in the process leave Americans vulnerable in the region. Really? Have we lost our minds? Trump. Y'all. Trump is not our savior. There's only one savior and His name is Christ. Please stop with the prophecy. Have we los...
