Well, that is the problem, isn’t it? We allow them to take our freedom bit by bit, and before you know it, it’s gone. I used to wonder why the Soviet people put up with all the hardships they did without rebelling. Now I see Americans submitting with only a few grumbles.
BTW, I won’t fly and I don’t eat worms. Also, it is “we humans”, not “us’. If you get to breeze through with the hassles of the rest of the herd, then good for you. For the majority of folks, flying is an ordeal.
Hosea 7:1-2) The thief comes inside. The Bandits raid outside. Now their exploits surround and encircle them.
Foreigners sap his strength, but he does not realize it. His hair is sprinkled with gray, but he does not notice.
The stalk has no head; it will produce no flour. Were it to yield grain, foreigners would swallow it up.
With their silver and gold they make idols for themselves to their own destruction.
