You mean suppirting a sittimg president who got voted in by the people who provide your food, power, and income? Is there a way to vote out a state from the union?

Make Mexico Great Again! Send their doctors and lawyers back to help their own country.

Speaking of your username, what do you think of Romans 6:15-23

15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? 17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. 19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. 22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

I couldn't get past this as a libertarian. Saved by grace, but slave to righteousness in exchange for eternal life. I think I'd rather die than be a slave, that's kind of the whole libertarian ethos.

You serve God. You try to live like Jesus. That's your imprisonment. Man lies and decieves. We build nations and civilizations through kindness, but that kindness has been taken advantage of. Being kind to people does not mean allowing yourself to get screwed. It might seem simple, but we have incredibly good morals built into us. Just don't fight out of hate, but rather with purpose. Jesus had stern words for the people like we are fighting, and so shall we.

Someone who desires Eternal Life cannot accept their humanity or what life itself actually is.

I do not desire eternal life, and while it hurts my chest to think that I'll never see my family again, both when they are gone, and when I am- That's just how life is. Life isn't cheap or easy, it sparks in a material sea of inanimate matter, chemical and energetic reactions under only the most extremely unlikely circumstances.

All we can do is cherish it as much as possible, and work tirelessly to make it the best life both for ourselves and those that come after- and then gracefully pass on back to in-animation in gratitude for having lived at all.

Slave either way. Everyone is ruled by something. Christianity is about freeing yourself from the yoke of the world and becoming perfect. You are a slave to the object which you desire, the Christian is a slave to righteousness because they are striving for it
