Are people really suprised to see what is happening in the US between militant BLM movements, the federal government (think Hillary) willfully violating laws with no recourse or accountability?

I have been thinking alot about 1 John 3:4
Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.

Can anyone, even the non-religious deny the trend?

The farther we go down the road EACH YEAR of abandoning traditional judeo-christian morality, even lately denying the very concept of man and woman, the more we see society in unrest, the federal government operating illegal weapon and drug smuggling, funding terrorism in places like Libya and Syria, basically rolled up in one word, LAWLESSNESS... Corrupt congressmen like Dianne Feinstein giving contracts to fake/overprices businesses (like the one owned by her husband) is MONEY LAUNDERING plain and simple, that is exactly what the cartels do. Taking money out of a vehicle just because it is there and calling it lawful seizure. The president himself endorsing race based riots. that is LAWLESSNESS.

That is my take on what is happening.

ARF should burn you at the stake for saying that

I think the means are the only thing that has really changed. Instead of slaughtering muslims on a crusade or giving Indians infected blankets, the majority of the world has taken more of a genghis khan approach to other people.

Uhm.

The lawlessness we are seeing is a product of media manipulations/distortions and the fact that it appears that leadership from the top supports the brewing conflict's agitators rather than doing what they should be doing, and squashing them.

Obama & Co. want to get this race war nice and whipped up and kicked off.  Otherwise, they'd not have gone after Zimmerman, They'd not have gone after the cop in Ferg.  Otherwise, they'd not have done everything they can to not give a shit when people make death threats against LEO's and white people.

Sorry, but your statement about morality is moot.  It's a problem of the laws only applying to cops and white people in the Feds minds combined with the media becoming to full of lies and half truths that the low-information liberals are being sold a bill of bullshit and they are eating it up.

Black panthers.

And all of the above.  This isn't a religious morality problem.  It's a distortion of information problem.  

Can you say that you can actually know what is going on by watching what the media is portraying the situation as?  If you can't say yes, you must say no.

Since Obama took office I'd say we've seen a lot more change....there is a brew of angst, injustice, and finger pointing always going on.  I've seen more people in the last 15yrs treat politics like your religion and it is just as bad if not more.  These are hardly normal times.

What this guy said.

For all the people who say "No, lack of morality has no part in it", don't "get" a lot of the feeling that was present in the older days.


Did stuff like witch-burnings, slavery,etc. happen?  Yes.....

But in day-to-day, life everyone had belief and a fear of a righteous hand, even those who didn't "practice" religion.    You life life a bit different if you have fear of what will happen to you.

Good versus evil....

It's a tragic tail.

But one that hasn't changed in forever. Locations and people are all that change. The acts are the same.


Remember the U.S. Was essentially empty land 500 -800 years ago. Sure a few nomadic tribes were here, but it was essentially vacant.

Now look at the Middle East, Europe, and Asia....

We are just now catching up.

So the fear of a boogeyman in todays society is a different type of a boogeyman fear that existed in some earlier time?
Because according to polls American society still ranks fairly high in belief of a supreme being

And the vast, VAST majority (I'd guess in the mid to high 90th percentile) would have come out in support of the Police and against groups like that.

Now?  I wouldn't be surprised if those numbers were close to 50/50.
