I often wonder what it means for us to be dependent on guns for safety, recreation and self-defense. Guns are made to wound and kill. They have no other purpose. I know from personal experience that shooting a gun is a rush like no other. I have family members who sleep with a gun in their bedside table, or under the mattress, ostensibly to protect themselves and family members from burglars, rapists, and other intruders. I’m willing to bet money that the ghostly image of that fearful intruder looks like somebody from a different and fearful race. A person I know keeps a gun in the back row of the church in case an unsavory person appears. |

I've got a better one:
"Children will oppress my people. Women will rule them. My people, your guides mislead you, and you don't know which way to go." - Isaiah 3:12
These 'useful idiot' kids are being stoked, scripted and organized by Women's March Youth Empower.
Any questions? |

Isaiah 11:6 is where the quote is found.....but Isaiah is discussing Christ's second coming when he removes all sin and animals like lions eat grass and are peaceful..."a child shall lead them," meaning lead animals, not people.
For another Biblical perspective ...PROVERBS 22:15 ~~~~"foolishness is bound up in the heart of the child."
Should we, in that light, follow? |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
