Grown Men Pointing Fingers!!

Yes, 2 posts in one night ... don't get your hopes up, this is not usual!

But I've got a little bit of a rant to go on here for a second ...

You know what makes me sick? American Politics! I went out to the kitchen tonight to have some dessert with the host family that I am staying with and as a Stanley, it takes a lot to not enjoy my food ... but something happened that made me sick!

The TV was on, along with millions of other television sets across the USA I'm sure, to Fox ... airing none other but the Presidential Debate!! Now, I am the first to willingly admit that I am in NO position to have a stance on this whole thing ... but I don't care! Yes, I'm an uninformed Canadian who hasn't the slightest clue the history of American Politics, but again ... not caring!

Can somebody tell me HOW can two grown men who in the big picture should technically be fighting for the same thing can be so opposed to each other, looking rediculous on International TV pointing fingers and playingthe blaming game?!?!?

It just made me realize what kind of a world we live in!! I'm not going to go off on American Politics beyond what I just said, cause I'd likely get myself into trouble, but, I am free to speak about the state of our world, right?!

How did we become so selfish? How did we get to the point where "I am always right and no one else's opinion matters?" How do we as humans claim that our pathetic understanding of life is the one and only!! How often do I personally catch myself thinking that I'm right, no questions!? It's certainly something that I can apply to leadership!! If anyone lacks wisdom, he should ask for it and God will give it to all without finding fault (James 1). Our source of understanding comes from God ... and ONLY God! Then who are WE to claim our 'humanistic' understanding as superior to our neighbours??

... man, we need help! We can't make it on our own! We need something much bigger than us ... than our own minds!! We need God! This world is in need of a reality check!

Well, now that I don't feel like puking anymore, I can get back to work! ... just some thoughts!
