​Here’s a phrase that caught my attention a while back. “Ever wonder what you would have done during the rise of Fascism? You’re doing it right now.”

I’m fighting​ what I see as a current form of fascism–human authoritarianism, rampant lies, flat-out cruelty towards masses of humanity, disregard for the rule of law​, and on and on. Some may feel that the end (their single issue) justifies the means of fascism, but ​I’m guessing they’re uncomfortable with the trade-offs.

So yeah, I’m fighting. For me, it’s not just about politics, it’s about the spiritual and the existential (the quest for meaning). Is true Christianity fascist? Not in the least.

​I’m guessing a lot of people are second-guessing themselves. They’re paying attention to ​their hearts that ​say something’s not right. ​They want to let go of the misery of a compromised life. ​They’re experimenting with the notion that who ​they’re told to oppose are not really ​their enemies. ​They want the “braver angels” to prevail and they want to BE those braver angels. In their hearts, they’ve had enough.

​It’s never too late​ to make mid-course corrections.

​Ever wonder what a return to a unified democracy full of love, justice, and mercy would look like?
