There is NO doubt in my mind the rise of socialism, the rise of mass shootings, the rise of drug addicted homelessness, the amount of children without both parents, the rise in suicide, the poverty of not just lack of material things but the utter lack of any hope at all in the eyes of people I've seen on the streets and on lone park benches in utter despair, are the lack of a relationship with our creator.

Now so many are pissed at God and religion and often it's because we didn't get our way, or we had to put up with a goody two shoes pointing their religious finger at us, or we had to put up with bullies that USED to be kept in check by Godly people that looked out after one another.

Are Godly people perfect, why HELL NO. Are Godly people without the desires of pleasure, of course not many of us walk around with our pleasures showing plainly in our clothes size. Are Godly people without a need for love and yes sex from their partner, not at all in fact many of us love sex and are very good at it, we just share it with someone we love and are committed to, and for the most part save my mention of it here, keep that to ourselves.

Are Godly people better than all the rest?

Not even close, and neither do we think that, we just believe in the slogan on the money we use, In God We Trust, and one other thing, we are in NO means perfect we F$%& up all the time, we're just FORGIVEN and we know the sacrifice made to allow forgiveness and we try to give that to others.

You see America WAS founded on a belief in God and history does prove it, but more important is God NEVER left America, we as a whole, left God, but God remains loving and reachable America!

Go back to a church, move around if you have to, read the bible, stay a reasonable distance from those that point their finger in judgement at you even at churches, but also realize the path is not without work, and do your part, alone if you have to, in fact we will grow strong in our relationship with God when it begins personally and alone, for then we can truly help others.

Godly folks do not turn away those trying, do not raise a superior smug attitude on anyone trying, but neither can they sit on their duff, they must put forth effort, but with our help, not with our judgement. They will fail many times, just as we fail, and we cannot discard them, but neither can they be given a free ride, for Godly people WORK together to GLORIFY GOD.

Why? Because, IN GOD WE TRUST!
