the division of power between the currently powerful and the currently incredibly powerful: something you can really cry about.
people make sin their god, so they will act accordingly with what their god teaches; get more power, get more money, get more sex. what is the governments true goal? what is wars true goal? to obtain the three things mentioned above. i believe people are good, just as i believe power corrupts. often times a "good" person will be put into a position of great power, and soon after, that said person will corrupt. he/she will do anything to obtain more of this power, and to obtain whatever else will satisfy and please, like sex and money. this why it is impossible for a government to remain "good" for more than a short amount of time.
i don't hate the president, i don't hate his goddamn cronies either, i don't hate any of the many lying politicians, and i don't hate the power hungry world bankers. i hate the sin that they have let overcome them. i hate the sin that we have all let overcome us. i hate that sin more than any other idea, thing, theory, place, person, or action. you do not have to be "religious" to understand what i'm talking about when i say "sin", i'm not a "religious" person.
hate the sin, love the sinner.
--Gandhi
here lately i have been trying not to get to extremely worked up when my mind wonders into the world of politics and government. but i'm finding it difficult. i know that there is so much shit that is messed up in that said realm, more than i could ever write down, but i think that it does more good not to focus on these fucked up issues. it does more good to focus and be thankful for all the good things we are blessed with. and yes, i know i am being more that just slightly hypocritical, but it's the truth.
good luck with your life.
