I have a right to my own opinions, but I do not have a right to force my opinions on others!
I have a right to express my opinions, but I do not have a right to deny others this right!
This is true for all Americans no matter how expert or knowledgeable we may be!
Exercise your rights, free Americans, or you will not remain free!
Any questions?
The media, the supposed experts, the bureaucrats and the political parties are complicit in indoctrinating us away from and denying us our natural rights! Do you think that this is an overstatement?
Is every opinion, informed or otherwise, correct? How can anyone believe that? This is why discussion is necessary. Even uninformed people will at times have valuable insights or useful questions. Even knowledgeable experts will be wrong due to philosophy and narrow focus! Discussion is important.
Before the American System of Government was created, there were 40 years or more of discussion in letters and discussions about what may be the best systems. There were over 200 people involved in the historical writings of the time and many preachers’ sermons.
America has been on the wrong path—not the founding path—for at least the last 125 years!
We have been led by our “progressives” off the founding path into the world’s totalitarian government style. There is no utopia or heaven or freedom there!
Today we are denied any real history that shows us the extreme suffering that a socialist society brings to individual citizens. Leftists create their own nirvana on earth at the expense of everyone else. Is that what you want for America?
There has never been a perfect society or country that lasts. At the least, the ones who create their own system die and their oppressed citizens try something else. Our founders tried to avoid that process. They partially succeeded to the degree that the whole world wants to come to America even with our system being under destruction by the progressives. We are still more free than anyone else!
This all is what the discussions must show us in every generation! Education seemingly has made the discussion more difficult. We have been divided by political parties. We have been driven from valid discussion by sex, race, gender, education and almost any other division that can be created. Politics have polluted, misdirected and destroyed any meaningful discussion! Media has chosen a political party to support. Business, especially big ones, have chosen to dance to the narratives!
Our main problem creates continually endless problems. This situation is not meaningless. It is a deliberate attempt to create the leftists’ total political power for themselves! They will continue to do it all until they have all the power, or we limit them to the very small minority that they are! I don’t think they can be totally eliminated. Humans cannot be that consistent!
The lack of consistency is why the discussion must be ongoing through every generation. There are always ebbs and flows in human societies. Generations always do some variety! Sooner or later, some people will feel sorry for the ones losing out! Leftists never feel sorry for you, only their own failures!
Humans are not capable of perfection. Anyone claiming to promote a perfect system should be a warning to us all. Our founders talked about “a more perfect union”, not a perfect system. Were they successful? It seems so! What our political system is today is a very perverted remanent of their design! We are not using it in favor of an administrative state. This is not America! Try to seek the best possible answers, not perfect ones! Listen to all opinions and try to discern the ones that may work for us all, or at least not destroy all our freedoms! Adjust the decisions that are not ultimately favorable.
The leaders’ messages to you, America, is, “Nothing to see here! Get with the program! We will take care of you! Talk, talk, talk, we’ve got to go do something!” Like what, more leftism? Their final solution is not good for you and our country. But it is wonderful for them alone—whoever survives the purges! Do not go there at all or even in part!
This is not beating a dead horse, people! But the horse is being choked and slowing down. We must turn it loose to do its best speed!
Take the leftist basket off and let our freedom light shine bright again!
And/or any other analogy that fits these!

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 ...
