I understand. Things are bleak right now but we will get through this. Be alert, pray, and wait it out.

I love my country.

I detest my government, and I am starting to hate the "protected groups".

Don’t victim blame America. Focus the anger into the ones trying to ruin. They are the assailants here.

I’m an American citizen but my highest allegiance is to the Lord, Jesus Christ.

I love this country and I am so ashamed of how she has turned her back on the Lord. Justice is perverted. Abortion is not just legal but celebrated. Sexual immorality is equated with fundamental identity and treated with more reverence than identity with Jesus.

Our leaders are corrupt. Our people are corrupt. Our laws are corrupt. Even our Christian churches are corrupt and place the desires of man over the commands of God.

I lament over America in the way Christ lamented over Jerusalem in Matthew 23.

Best country on earth (still is), but I never sat around and jerked off about it. Same with the states and cities I’ve lived in.

Reading history books hasn't made this any easier. Very few if any of our politicians or those seeking power seem to be motivated by any true altruistic reasons. As a result, the rest of us suffer from policies that do nothing to help the country prosper and grow but do everything to perpetuate their lust for power.

We simply have too many parasites and they are slowly killing the productive hosts. George Floyd was a parasite, by definition, contributed nothing his whole worthless life. Plenty of other examples. We need an exterminator before the termites collapse the house. They have no allegiance and will simply migrate to the next host nation. Look at Europe and the immigration from Africa. Our migration primarily comes from south of the border. The migrates are not white collar material for the most part. A nation without borders isn't really a nation.

I see where you are coming from but America is the people of this country NOT fedgov.

The "American Way" was based on Individual Rights coming directly from God, and not Majority Rule (Democracy). Transnational Progressive Ideology has undermined, co-opted and now controls the (Constitutional) Institutions, Academic and Media which were formed to defend and promote said Constitution Principles.

It's a "perfect storm" wherein "The Fourth Turning" and Biblical prophecy combines for "fundamental transformation". But it won't be Barack's version of FT, but Jesus' (IMO).

That said, America became obsessed with Self Worship via status/petty narcissism games and 'Idolatry' ("worship of things made with the hands" as opposed to real Spirituality/Vision). I'm guilty of this; it's hard to hold the Vision. And as well, we mostly ignored Jesus admonition to "serve the weaker brethren" above all. That left a moral vacuum for Marxist Ideology to fill; they did, and are.

A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link; America - our People - simply didn't realize the import of Jesus' exhortation. We'll learn, and move ahead. The sky is the limit.

You can love America and despise those running it...just like here in Washington State - great place, terrible people running it.

Tough to disagree with OP. Sadly.
