All humans do not support everything, all things, all the time,
100%--even their considered-to-be good things!
Christians are not consistent in that their actions do not always follow their beliefs.
Leftists also will not always agree on every issue.
Humans’ beliefs and actions are more like tides than lakes.
They come and go, “ebb & flow.”
If we do and think the identical things very long, they get boring.
We seek variety and change even though we don’t like constant change—it’s boring,
irritating and tiring. If we don’t choose the changes, they are especially undesirable!
We don’t understand ourselves and our true nature. We judge others by our own views and wonder why they do the things that they do that we think we wouldn’t do!
Until we can see OUR OWN SELF-CENTEREDNESS & GENERAL DISOBEDIENCE,
we cannot respond well to our life situations. We will keep “tripping over ourselves!”
This secret, unknown, not understood inconsistency can affect our lives negatively. It usually does!
This is not all that can be said about this subject. It has self-evaluation, comical, philosophical, moral, ethical, theological and legal ramifications. Most people think that they can’t be seriously wrong, which itself is! We are much more complicated individuals than most of us can appreciate! Many of us don’t even care.

This is one of my meditations and themes for the last several years. It is like a unfathomable, universe-wide subject. This is a good starting discussion of this subject. It is packed with meaning.
Humans are made in GOD’s Image and HIS likeness.
That Image in humans is this: our individual spirit & attributes.
The reason is so that we can relate to HIM. Our excuse that GOD isn’t human and a figment of our imagination is totally destroyed by Jesus. Freedom is in this discussion.
GOD created humans to be able to relate to HIM. Jesus came to be our individual, sinless Lamb of sacrifice. He will come again as the Messiah that the Jews are expecting but it will be to return believers (all those who have chosen to believe forever) to the Eden relationship with GOD. {The Biblical book of Leviticus is what perfect obedience would look like.
I finally understand its meaning and use.}
What GOD and a human creates are reflections of themselves. They are alike enough for the ...

While it is humanly impossible for humans to be totally good, we always can do much better than we have been doing if we individually want to do so! There is no concept that humans can totally achieve in this life. This applies individually, in groups or collectively.
The pathologies of today’s culture are apparent. However, they are called benefits & loudly proclaimed. They must be clearly seen as dangerous & wrong to our once-free country!
They are deliberately destroying Christianity, our country, our families, our individual personhood & our individual freedoms. Does this seem to be too extreme a statement?
Our media are calling evil “good” & good “evil”. Should that be totally right & silently allowed? Free speech & opinions must not live there? Freedom of speech is not absolute. This severe problem should be curtailed & limited within the proper bounds & situations!
Is it possible or allowed to seek those limits that do not destroy freedom of speech itself?

I do not support ANY, ANY political personality cults!!!! Left, Right, middle, it doesn’t matter! If you take the political part out, it is still so! Is this clear enough? I don’t support cultish “groupyism”!
My expectation is that any American who wishes to serve America in a political office would speak and act in support of our cherished American principles that are reflected in the best writings of our founders and all sensible people since then!
I am disgusted by the pragmatic politics and the excessive partisanship that the media love, especially for Democrats, it seems. I am disgusted with the pro-to-total leftism in our media. They do not represent thinking, peaceful citizens’ views! Individual humans are all over the belief spectrum with the issues. That is why discussion is necessary!
The people that I enjoy watching and reading at least attempt to tell the truth as they see it and are willing to listen to varying opinions and discuss them! From libertarian to center ...
