GST,re:"Why is it... God... legitmacy". Because it's not just ANY GOD. I heard the argument that, when asked why Bush is so fond of this WAR, the answer was: 'Bush is a good man, he is a Christian'. The logic is, just as I heard and learned that, as long as you are a Christian, you're OK regardless of what you do. 'Fanatic' seems to be the impression I got from this kind of response. But that's good for religion, you have to be 'fanatic' in some way to be a good follower. Everything has 'life-cycle', USA's founding fathers were at one end of a cycle and Bush and his conspirators are at the opposite end of the cycle. If luck has it on our side, the damage/consequence is minimized. At this juncture, we're seeing a continuous deteriotion of: 1. gaps between 'have and have not', AG and the conspirators are making sure that will continue, as MONEY is the way to control the citizens. 2. war/patriotism will be used as a shield for any ACT.
Hope I'm wrong. But 'religious conflicts' had never ended peacefully. As they said in the 'dot-con-era', this time is different. Let's wait and see. |
