In some respects this election is good. It got people to think. A lot if people are going to have regrets. Before the election fear was "false evidence appearing real". Now the evidence is real, the fear is real. Where are we going next? Fascism? Apartheid? Theocracy? Or are we going to get a mix? Internment camps? Consider this, internment camps were done by executive order.
I find it is easier to identify like minded people and also identify those I see as a threat to America. I've discovered that many evangelicals are closet racists. I can clearly see the hypocrits.
I'm Christian but not religious. I have a problem with religion. Religion is the imposition of some leaders dogma on others. It is a method of control. It is usually fear driven. Jesus did not advocate for one religion. He advocated moral principles that would guide man to be like him and his father. One thing I'd really like to know is that people learned something from Jesus. I am disappointed that many religious people have not.
