I was shocked to see the results of the elections in the paper this morning. Why do people believe that others can rule their lives? God is our judge, not some human man or woman who chooses whether it is right to kill someone or not. He is our saving father and if he were to be elected into office, I guarantee that he would pay off our debts to China, not make it grow and grow.
I cannot believe that the U.S has elected those who support the right to bear arms. This law kills many people everyday and needs to be illegal. The U.S is also voting people to say if it is wrong or right to kill unborn children. There is only one answer. Every child is a gift from God and must be loved. The ones elected don’t have jurisdiction to say if it is right or wrong, only God can say so.
The church should be elected to run the country. The citizens need a man of God to lead them through their tough choices in life, not a rich, corrupt government official. The country needs a priest or a monk to run the country fairly. They have the good of the lord in their hearts, not fame and fortune. The Republicans were the ones who came up on top this go-around and they contradict many of God’s laws. They support the death penalty to kill criminals and others who do heinous crimes. Is it really better to kill one person who killed another? In God’s eyes, it is two dead followers of him instead of just one.
Maybe I should run for office in the upcoming years. I have the Holy Father on my side so I would not astray from the mission. The results of this election tell me that the citizens of the country don’t know what they are doing. As a leader, I would preach the word of the God and convert followers in the name of Jesus. The country bound by one faith is stronger than one bounded by many faiths.
I guess that it is for the best that the Republicans won the majority seats in the office because they best reflect the views of the church. Followers of faith, no matter how weak their faith is, are always better than non-believers. If they have any piece of faith in God, they will succeed and prosper in helping our country. If you’re going to vote, vote for somebody that has God’s best interests at heart.
The church is corrupt because they don't trust reason and only follow the bible
ReplyDeleteDuns Scotus was one of the first people to introduce consent of the governed though, a few centuries before Locke.
ReplyDeleteI agree that a man of God would be a better ruler than a rich, corrupt government official. But a man of God could be corrupt also, like Anslem said. We need a balenced ruler, who keeps the church in mind but also does what is best for our country.

If there was no God(not saying there is or is not a God), who is the church official or monk really going to listen to? basically it is a monarchy if there is no God, and whatever the leader says goes. The ideals of Scotus would make for a weak government and corruption.
ReplyDeleteAgain, Jacob, Scotus was the first to introduce consent of the governed, which many nations throughout the worlds have based their governments, including our own..
