this is what happens when people allow their governments to take the place of the church and God. We were fine when the government use tax code to encourage marriage and bestowed benefits on wives and spouses in retirement and healthcare. Now, this is what we get. You can’t create two classes of citizens.
We now have a government that the founders warned us about. They will come after churches, they will outlaw types of Christianity and they will enforce a government approved type of worship through the tax code. Hello Unitarian Universalism.
I dislike this more than most people because I saw this coming twenty years ago but we did this to ourselves. Too many people are searching for perfection in an imperfect world.
They will eventually outlaw all Christiany, because even the liberal Christian actors’ usefulness will be over, as there is no reason to pretend that even they are important. If there’s anything I learned it is that the militant godless will pretty much go for your throat as a thank you for helping them take out another group. There’s no appeasing them. You could help the fascists all you wanted, but they would still order your death regardless.
My Dad saw all this coming about 30 years ago. He taught our family well. For the longest time I didn’t believe him. Then I had to learn for myself the hard way, and everything my Dad taught me started to click.
He was right every step of the way. The older I got, the “smarter” he got.lol.
