WHAT JUST HAPPENED?
Alexander
Tyler wrote about the Athenian Empire
nearly 2500 years ago:
“A democracy cannot exist
as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover
that they can vote themselves largesse (generous gifts) from the public
treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates
promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a
democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed
by a dictatorship” “The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has
been two hundred years.”
There is not a single
civilization that has ever escaped from or reversed this trend once the tipping
point is reached. I believe that we have reached the tipping point.
The
recent election results suggest we acknowledge that the culture of America will
collapse. I believe this is consistent with the current administration’s plans
and policies. The losers ran on building a stronger economy (which means you
have to work), maintaining a stronger defense (which means you have to fight), and
a return to traditional values and concern about the financial well-being of
the next generation.
America
just voted to reject these. The faithful church must now realize it is living
in occupied territory among those who serve and honor other gods who are
hostile to it.
What
we have left is an ideology where “I am” the only one who really matters. If the
government promises to give me what I want, then I really don’t care about anyone
else. It ceases to be government and becomes “givernment.”
Every
fabricated division in 21st century politics is based on this
premise. My needs come first!
My interest group, racial identity, and preference must be protected. This, of
course, is dramatically opposed to Judeo-Christian biblical values. But as we
now know, America no longer lives by these values.
Does
this suggest that we are now ready for the rise of the single world government?
