AMEN, I taught my sunday school class this morning and the subject was leadership. One of the class members said that he thought that there was an attitude of love now. I asked him what he was talking about, he said, "you know with the new president". I replied, I have to tell you, I'm just not feelin' the love. I got some laughs, but not as many as I should have in a free society. Religion aside, I am a free market capitalist, I feel that is the most fair, moral system that has ever existed, and right now, right here, it under assault like never before. When we disempower the indivdual in favor of some kind of utopian scheme it can only lead to oppression. I hope I am wrong, but the current track we are now on seems to be headed to less individual rights in favor of some kind of scheme where everybody is equally miserable.
