Addressing the Conscience of America: There is Still An Actual Right and Wrong, Even in Liberty

One says 2+2=4. Another argues with him and says 2+2=5. Then a peace pipe smoker comes along and says "compromise". That's the problem. No one yields when they're clearly wrong. And others are afraid to back what is right. SMH!

With that said, I saw that a young man from Newtown of his own freewill and choice decided to stop playing violent video games. This is right! It would also be right if his parents took them away. Children do not have all the same freedoms and rights as adults. But parents must be free to train them the way they seem right, within reason.

In the wake of the Newtown, Connecticut massacre. I implore all not to take rights but to attack and appeal to the conscience of individuals and all of society. Not by force, but by influence and freewill, we can make a difference. It is more sincere, pure, and authentic when people of their own will choose right, and therefore will it last, even forever. Binds and chains are to be broken and will be broken. There's a New Testament story of a mad man that broke every chain the people put on him to hold him and stop him. Jesus comes with only influence out of true care, and the mad man is then found clothed and in his right mind to the point the people didn't believe it was the same man. I'll post the story on a subsequent post.

In addition, I opened with the notion that no one yields when they are actually wrong. If we are going to address guns, violent entertainment like video games and movies, then we must also address our current political culture where there is constant arguing, no pure dissent, angst and division with no real cause.

We do not know what this young man who killed in Newtown was being fed constantly via real media, social media, blogs, and emails. I am such a proponent of free speech and it is not a right that should ever be infringed upon. However, we do have liability laws, purgury laws, laws against false accusations and other laws against blatant destructive lies. And privately, most teach our children to not gossip and spread rumors or unverified "facts".

In this past election cycle, I've heard and seen things that were flat out untrue by both the Right and the Left and by the Religious and Non-Religious. I love to debate, communicate, and fellowship with all concerning every angle and point of view. This is good and right. I engage. And when proven wrong, I yield and even tell others that I was wrong. But when I clearly pointed out inaccuracies using fact and proof, and not just opinion, many refused to change, repent, retract, or back down. Many doubled down and attacked me and truth and even spread lies concerning me. I believe my life and experience is a microcosm of a greater problem in this era, and we all must be concerned.

When hate, and competition; a lust driven to win at any cost and by any means, over rides what is actually right and fair and honest and just, we are in a most dangerous place. Ex. Steroids.

If the "good" people will knowlingly deceive to win, what would an emotionally disturbed, immature 20 year old that has been constantly fed with lies and distortion, do? We have seen and seen and seen what they will do. #colombine #aurora #wisconsin #newtown #september11th

We are to fight, but a good fight according to our belief. A good fighter never has to resort to violence or offense. And true belief is based on and seeks/desires truth and fact only; pure dissent, not gamesmanship, which we exalted far too long.

Consider all that there may be true and continual peace in each of us, and then extended out to all of America and all the world.

I love you all.

Addressing the Conscience of America the Jesus Way: Influence Not Force The Mad Man of Gadarenes that Chains (laws and rules) Could NOT Bind Mark 5:1 And they came over to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. 6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the most high God? I adjure you by God, that you torment me not. 8 For he said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit. 9 And he asked him, What is your name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. 10 And he sought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. 11 Now there was there near to the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. 12 And all the devils sought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. 13 And immediately Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea. 14 And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done. 15 And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. 16 And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine. 17 And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts. 18 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. 19 However, Jesus suffered him not, but said to him, Go home to your friends, and tell them how great things the Lord has done for you, and has had compassion on you. 20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.
