Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid!


Guns, church, Christmas, Islam, Confederate flags, Mexican immigrants, Louis Farrakhan, Westboro Church, same sex marriage, Donald Trump, Ben Carson, Ted Cruz and Adolf Hitler.  What do all these names, things, people have in common?  Easy—all are involved with messages of hate.

Hate is an overwhelming presence in our country today.  Those of us who are acutely aware of this are frequently depressed and angry.  Unfortunately, it seems that the majority of Americans choose to compartmentalize each issue and see virtue in each one separately.  I submit the following as documentation:

1.        Guns are not the problem; arming oneself is the answer.  Ben Carson has suggested that the Jews would have defeated Hitler if they were armed.

2.       Going to church will solve most problems—especially if you carry guns with you.  Westboro Church is a special case; they praise God and Jesus by picketing funerals.

3.       Islam:  An evil belief system, practiced by entire countries who seek to eradicate every Christian on the planet.  An exception however is

4.       Louis Farrakhan, representing the Nation of Islam (quite separate and apart from everyone else’s Islam) who sees both white people and especially Jewish white people, as the mortal enemy of black people.

5.       Christmas:  let the wars begin!  The enemy is every checkout clerk and bagboy who wishes you a “Happy Holidays!”

6.       Confederate flags:  These flags are about Heritage, not hate!  Unless of course the KKK symbol is in the middle and it is carried by a screaming racist.

7.       Mexican immigrants are all suspect, even if they are here legally.  We can assume they want your job, they are lazy, criminal and probably unsanitary.

8.       Same sex marriage threatens the institution of marriage and is against the will of God.  Whenever two men or two women marry, a heterosexual couple is obligated to get a divorce (possibly numerous times) of have multiple affairs, and children, while married.  Clearly there Is a correlation between the increase in homosexual relationships and the deterioration of heterosexual relationships.

9.       I think if you concurrently listen to recordings of Trump, Carson, Cruz and Hitler (translated of course) you would get the message.

Yes, it’s depressing.  So, we can sit around and get depressed and see what happens next.   Wait until the hate mongers take to the streets (oh, I forgot, they are already doing that) and begin committing random acts of violence against the groups they hate and anyone else who gets in their way (oh, darn, they’re already doing that also).  Wait until one of them legally achieves a position of power (for example, President of the United States of America).  Obviously that’s not likely to happen for a long time—not until 2016.
