How does society help us become judges?

Excerpt taken from my Face book postings yesterday:

What does the United States of America mean to you? I ask what is UNITED???? Bent Media, Extreme Politics, and Extreme Religion are being used as vehicles to separate us from being UNITED as it should be. 

WE SPEND ONE DAY A YEAR, JULY FOURTH, TO FEEL UNITED WATCHING FIREWORKS AND PIGGING ON HOT DOGS!! IT SHOULD BE EVERY DAY THAT WE ARE PROUD THAT WE ARE FREE? ARE WE REALLY?

Bent media (with commentary), 

Extreme politics (which dramatize their points with emotional reasoning), 

and Extreme Religion (which lacks tolerance for diversity, freedom of
choice, sexual orientation outside of norms for the culture, and the right for people to live their lives in self-determination) does an EXCELLENT JOB in making all of the noise that makes it difficult to carry on the WORK OF HELPING .

GOD GAVE US A BRAIN TO CRITICALLY discern if certain types of
noise, distracts us from our vision (which is a world of less chaos and
more peace), and calmly remove ourselves or turn off those noises that
impede productive thinking that help us to reach our ultimate goal to
helping others to have the peace they are seeking in their lives- which
leads to a world that Jesus Christ envisioned for us.  

Jesus said "Love one another", not "Judge one another", does someone need a q-tip?

  1. Kate, u assume that everyone has the same goal. Yes, the goals you speak of are important. Important to you and to myself as well. However, the entities you speak of may have very different goals. UNITED is only possible with like minded individuals.
