Voting is an Act of Faith

Voting is a concrete demonstration of faith. Faith in our form of government and faith in our fellow man. It is a necessary demonstration of that faith because freedom isn't safe. Our fellows may do with their freedom that which we would rather they not do. That's the biggest danger of freedom. To vote to keep all of our freedoms intact is a vote that says "I trust my friends and neighbors to do that which is right, rather than that which is expedient for them or easy."

The two party system is killing us. Literally. It is nothing less than an easy button which the msm and the major parties have used to hijack the system. It is a lie and the most insidious of lies because it plays on the wish we all have to be winners.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to be a winner. There is something terribly wrong with allowing that wish to degrade your character. The truth is that there are over 200 presidential candidates registered with the FEC. How many of their names do you know? Have you heard of Samm Tittle? How about Gary Johnson or Phillip G. Pflughaupt? Have you done your due diligence to find the BEST candidate without regard to the one that the msm or either party declares is the only one that has a chance of winning? (Of course, if you believe them they will turn out to be right because you will vote how they tell you to, R or D, instead of voting for the best candidate.)

How faithless are we that we allow ourselves time after time after time to be deceived by this lie? This is the most concrete demonstration of our lack of faith in God, as a nation, that we could possibly make. Will people make fun of you for voting for an other than mainstream media candidate? Yes. Will they blame you for the wrong person being elected due to their own lack of faith, because you didn't join them in their comfortable lie? Yes. Are we the "Home of the Brave" or the Home of Timid"? Are we the "Land of the Free" or the "Land of the Lazy"? If we continue to use the two party system to direct our votes, then we are timid and lazy and we deserve the government we get.

I think we deserve better. Have faith that God, having given us such an exceptional nation, wants us to keep it. Do your part to keep it and restore it. The same God who told Noah to build the ark gave us this nation. We have the same choice as Noah, do the necessary work, or be destroyed along with the rest of the world.
Your choice.



"But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment."~ Matt 12:36

"Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants." ~ Matt 18:23

Why only the GOP?

"Keep the pressure on the GOP" "Fractures in the GOP" "We need you to call the GOP members of the House Rules Committee..."

Why am I only receiving alerts to call the GOP and hold their feet to the fire? Aren't all of our Congressmen and women supposed to be doing what is right for this nation? Do we think that those supported by the Democratic party or the independents are so far lost to reason that communication is not even possible?

Or have we just given up?

I ask that because, the last time I checked, there is still a democratic majority in the Senate. So, unless some of those democrats are brought to reason, this is all a losing battle. There's no reason to exclude democrats from those calls, they need to hear from us too. What they do affects us all, so don't be discouraged by the fact that you may not be a member of this one or that one's constituency. If you have valid points to make for why they should vote a certain way for the good of the nation, they need to hear from you.

Beyond that, this goes directly to the heart of why Mr. Washington warned us against adopting a party system of politics. The people we elect to these offices are to be doing what is right for the nation, not voting according to party lines.

It's shameful that we have a situation where pundits can predict the success or failure of a piece of legislation by counting up votes along party lines. This is NOT how our system is supposed to work. Call your congressman or woman, by all means, but don't refuse to call them or committee members simply because of their party affiliation.
