More FBI Shenanigans

Is it just me? Seems that just about every organization, government or group seems to go sour after years of not holding on to its core values.

Why would the FBI basically lie?

Because, unless you’re Trump or conservative you don’t ever get held responsible for your crimes, incompetence, lies, malfeasance, etc. If you know you’re unlikely to be held accountable why wouldn’t you?

Fear of God?

They'd have to believe in him first...

We’re living in a post-Christian culture now. There is no fear of God. If there were, I doubt we’d be seeing much of what we’re seeing celebrated this month celebrated.

Those of us who fear God are doing a pretty poor job with the Great Commission. Live and let live mentality has ruined this country....at least that's part of it.

You’re not wrong. Nietzsche's warning about the death of God, is coming true. Religion and faith were the foundation of moral values. We’ve come to see that instinct overridden, and what replaced it is an existential threat.

Nature abhors a vacuum.
Remove God and/or morals... and something will fill it.

This does not mean EVERYONE has to be religious.

Humans will worship something. Something will always rule and something will always be worshipped. If it’s not the God it will be a god or an idol or a person or even one’s own self (however that manifests).

There is nothing new under the sun.

"How long shall they kill our prophets'
While we stand aside and look?
Ooh, some say it's just a part of it,
We have to fulfill the book". - Mr Bob Marley, Redemption Song

Depends I guess, how we're defining worship. I've seen some definitions say to elevate to most important. Obviously if someone doesn't regard god as most important, they regard something else as most important. That thing can be a sense of morals, good or bad. Can also be a person.

I like the way Act put it, more in terms of morals, and is IMHO the crux of the problem. One doesn't have to be religious to have morals.

It's probably true. But Jim Jordan and other Republicant's in Congress need to spend their time figuring out how to defeat ClownWorld™ instead of figuring out what kind of political theater will keep the donations coming in. They need a plan.
