You are using a standup comedian to strengthen your argument

Just wondering who the jokes on

I was not aware that Sprintcyclist was a Psychiatrist...

It is wise to be aware of the conspiracy theories that are out there at least in some superficial ways if not deeper. If you have paid attention to things at all, conspiracies have a way of ...........being found to be true at some point.

So unless you want to be blindsided by something huge at some point, it's a good idea to know what the conspiracy theories are. Now if you deem that to be fulfilling someone's silly needs, then that's on you.

I prefer to be curious and have a broad knowledge base rather than close my mind and believe only what I am being told by some pea brain on network news that I've decided to trust.

I agree! What gets labeled as a "Conspiracy theory" is many times true. What gets labeled as "misinformation" is also sometimes true. What happens many times is it benefits those who want to misinform or confuse the masses by labeling the truth as a "Conspiracy theory" or "misinformation". It is a way to suppress communication, truth and prevent people from discussing and/or investigating the situation.

2 Chronicles 7:14NIV
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

i'd been thinking about that scripture, @Jen and there it was. How many people would rather see the end of the United States than to humble themselves, pray and turn from their wicked ways in order to heal this nation.

that is exactly what the use of that term is for.

I believe it's in the book of Revelation that talks about those who think they will argue with and sway God at the judgement seat. SPOILER ALERT! It does not go well for them.

If someone told them exactly what those "wicked ways" were, I am sure they would rather see the end of the nation than do some of those things. We have normalized so much wickedness that we are barely able to identify or recognize it anymore.

No one wants to be humble either.

I am hoping that there are enough people who have done and will do that ........that we will be saved from what some want to order up for us. I believe there are enough. We don't have to do that with perfection. Our hearts just need to be willing and we need to be trying our best. I have been told many times that my best just isn't good enough. I hope this time it's enough.

I make it a habit to do my best however, I cannot save myself nor humankind, no matter what I do. We each have to face God alone. Our only plea is that Jesus Christ died for us, anything else is inadequate.
