A Note on Today's Political Climate

I came across this tidbit while surfing the 'net, and it hits the nail on the head:

Take 60’s hippie counter-culture with its “free love & free drugs”, replacing those with “free EVERYTHING” paid for by the working class; mix in technology that has decimated human interaction to the point of being in constant communication with the world without ever having to speak face-to-face with one single individual; add in several helpings of mega-narcissism (their parents obviously never taught them “the world doesn’t revolve around you!”); throw in this thinking that popular media, entertainment, and academia as they exist now are THE MAJORITY speaking for THE MAJORITY, when in all actuality – as Trump’s election proves – they are simply a MINORITY speaking so vociferously that it just SOUNDS as if they’re the majority; and last but not least, add in the concerted efforts to bring down Christianity not only as a religion but as a way of life, and in doing so demonizing (“call evil, good and call good, evil”) all that sustains a civilization, virtues such as family, faith, service… all long-standing, grounded precepts that seek not to destroy but persevere. 

 The result of all this is what we see all around us now. --Author unknown
