harmonic miner, I posted about a month ago, that 'religion and politics were the biggest frauds perpetrated on the human race to control masses of people'...and therefore, pretty much agree with you. Though, in the course of trying to get some sense into the 'politicos', I've tried to interject some 'good ol' fashion' common sense, by way of the truth, there are some on here, who are determined to politicize every false issue, disregarding the truth, and promote their nonsensical party's agenda..and/or cause.
I favor neither side, in this contrived chaos. and in doing so, certain falsehoods I've had to address..only to be attacked by those who hold on to baseless political rhetoric, as doctrine, rather than to side on the side of truth! This is happening all over the world, and is destructive to all those who engage into promoting those activities!!..not to mention the collateral damage that lies in its wake!
Rather than 'snap countering' with hateful rhetoric, it would be far more constructive, for those same individuals, to seek out the truth, impartially, and adjust accordingly! Why promote policies, either religious or political, when one does so, with no foundation of truth, about any given subject??
This is where my mind and heart is, and I'm sure others feel that way, because there is no reason to screw up everything, then ask in shock and disbelief later, "I supported what???..for why??..and who??? ..and now we got THIS??!!??..What was I thinking?? Why didn't anyone tell me??
Someone did.
