I'm starting this blog without a title for it...O.K., by the time you read it, there will be a title. But right now, I'm not sure what to call it.
It's a tough post to write, mostly because it's some self reflection and seeing faults in my character. But overall, it's tough to write because it's about humanity in general...And something I don't think we'll ever be able to cure.
I have a problem with politics.
Let me be crystal clear...I am not a left wing guy or a right wing guy. I'm a God guy. Rent unto Caesar what is his, and to God what is God's is what Jesus told us. Personally I think both wings are from the same rotten bird, but the point is....I am not 'loyal' to party.
That's a really tough thing to be these days, with these elections in America coming up. People will literally die for the party they believe in. And if you don't fall in line, you are considered the enemy.
Don't believe me? Just go and comment on a political post on social media lol I made that mistake a few days ago. And I called something out, that I believe is a big problem in today's social media.
If someone posts a meme, it's fact! No digging into a topic, no researching what is being claimed...People's political beliefs and in some cases, religious beliefs are being formed and swayed by these memes online.
Most of them, are simply propaganda. Topics that put one party above the other and lash out on anyone that doesn't believe the same way you do.
I called out a post because it was not true. And boy oh boy, I got smacked around by people I even thought were my friends.
Here's the thing though, let's go to the bible and see what God told us about these kind of situations:
Yeah, that's what is so great about the bible. If you want to see what the world was like, is like and will be like...Go to scripture.
I'm left scratching my head because....Do people even care about truth these days?
Or have we become so loyal to 'mankind' in the form of government, that we forget to look at what is being said and the agenda behind it?
Personally, I know I can't take anything said online personally, I do have to remember what Jesus said above. This is supposed to happen. People are going to get vicious at each other and even their own families....
What future do we have?
People may laugh at my faith. People may shrug their shoulders at it....But with my faith, I can see how all of this gets better. How humanity does 'get better' and stops all this madness towards each other....
One accord, there's the title of the blog post ;)
