It's hard to express ideological revelations in a single post, but I'm going to try my best.

Both my parents were 'religious'. My father cheated on my mother, but after divorced lead a devout life.

My mother claims to be catholic, read me Bible verses, but would bring home random men and tell me that it was better to let seed fall into the belly of a whore, than to the floor. After twenty plus years she still blames my father for her failures.

I joined the Marines, and my father told me that there are no atheists in fox holes. But the only thing I thought of in combat, were the men that were with me, and the men I lost.

I thought humanism and intellectual reasoning would win out in the end. That was false.

2020 has brought a realization to me, that we need religion, whether it's thinking that there is a man in the sky, or the following the core tenets.

Relgions share TONS of common ideals, they're all trying to tell followers how to live better lives.

But without a doubt, judeo Christian values have led to the best results.

The things you are mad about today, did not start happening a year ago. Hell, I watched Dazed and Confused with my wife the other night, and I love the movie. But the movie criticized the founding fathers as not wanting to pay taxes.

That was not the overarching reason, the emphasis on economic reasons being the driving factor is a rail road spike in appreciation for what we stand for. Shake off these shackles, realize that we need Judeo Christian reasoning and thoughtfulness to move forward.

I don't care about the color of your skin, I care about your values, your ideals. I want to know that you America.
