And even playing sports requires frequent breaks, But this is a religious issue, as there is an ideology behind it, which is from Hell, that of “climbing up some other way” (Jn. 10:1) to power, etc. than thru merit, which the devil tried, (Is. 14), and the victim-entitlement mentality which calls the worthy to “share the wealth,” power and position with those who demand it, and who feel justified in taking it, which the devil worked to instill in Eve. (Gn. 3)

i tell you soberly that today’s pre-college (secular seminary) youth are the most open to any ideology than ever before. And as saith Daniel Webster,

If religious books are not widely circulated among the masses in this country,become of us as a nation. If truth be not diffused, error will be; If God and His Word are not known and received, the devil and his works will gain the ascendancy; If the evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt and licentious literature will;

If the power of the Gospel is not felt throughout the length and breadth of the land, anarchy and misrule, degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without mitigation or end.” (Tryon Edwards, “A Dictionary of Thoughts: Being a Cyclopedia of Laconic Quotations from the Best Authors of the World, Both Ancient and Modern ,”1908. p. 49)

This religious blame is BS.

“For those of us who have fought for it FREEDOM has a special flavor that the protected shall never know.”

Wow. You figured that out. What do you think has happened in this country? God has been kicked out. Now, go serve as a military chaplain. Your are preaching to the choir.
