Futility

My anger and frustration have passed at what just occcured in this election. After anger comes resolve. As my abbot said, it was perhaps inevitable. How can I explain to you what you have thrown away? It would be like me trying to describe to a blind man the shades of blue in a morning sky, or a leaf floating on a stream. If you have never known real freedom how can I expect you to fight, or vote, to defend it. Not freedom as an Ideal, but as a living breathing part of life, more important than life. Mea culpa maxima, I have failed to convince you, or prove to you how what you perceive to be progress and liberty are but silken chains of socialism. You know the old maxim: Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it. To paraphrase that I would say: those who do not know history become history. Do some research and see where all Socialists revolutions end. They all end in mass starvation and genocide. Its no secret, the facts are out there.

I retract my previous blog not because it might offend, but because it will not educate. Today's pundits are so fond of the analogy of placing a frog in a pot of water brought slowly to a boil, the frog will not jump out, and will boil to death. This pot has been boiling for at least four generations so how could you possibly know that it was time to leap from the pot? It was time to leap a long time ago. And now the moment has passed into history.
