Too bad Carlin couldn't grasp the importance of God and how abandoning Him has ruined this nation. And its not just about greed its about control and the eventual loss of all civil rights. They aren't just after more they are after everything. A Godless nation is too weak to resist them.

I used to want to fight those people, now I see we can just ignore them as we far outnumber what they have.

I have given up on my generation, Millennials, now I just want to laugh as the nation they want changes radically away from them.

The next 20 years are going to be so funny to watch these kids .... fuck, we're not kids anymore, thats just sad

GenX -er here, with some good news.

In the late 1980s, I was a teenager. All of my friends in school thought Reagan was the antichrist, and that Gorbachev was somehow awesome. I caught a ton of shit (and at least one fight) for expressing admiration for The Gipper.

But then something happened.

They started working for the first time. They started wondering what FICA was and why it took a chunk out of their paycheck...

In my early adulthood of the early 1990s, most of my friends thought the GOP sucked ass and that Clinton was mega-awesome. No fights, just grumbling now.

But then something happened.

They started having kids and thought beyond the end of their noses. They started buying homes and began looking ahead. They started wondering why the man who said 'I feel your pain' wasn't doing shit to alleviate it, but private industry was. They started to wonder why the political class was acting like a bunch of medieval nobility, but they were just scraping by. They wondered why they watched the ATF put kids to the torch and blame some religious nuts for it, and why that same government started shooting infants out of their mothers' arms just because some dude made a sawed-off shotgun for money (look up Ruby Ridge). They saw their loser stoner buddies living off the government teat while they worked their asses off. They started wondering why they only heard one sanctioned (liberal) political view on TV and radio, but no others...

This led to lots of wonderful things... the 1994 Contract With America. Rush Limbaugh. Tax Cuts. Welfare Reform....

Fast forward to today.

The majority of my generation is now passing the 50-year-old mark. We're seeing grandkids. The majority of us who are productive in society are voting red as fuck, while TBH only the ignorant, the tenured profs, the gov't employees, and the tralier-park-trash among us would intentionally vote blue.


As it was with us, so it shall be with you. Give it time.

It’s good that you no longer want to fight them, but don’t shelve that ideal. We will have to fight these people. The dems will never stop pushing for easier ways to cheat in elections and when they achieve their goal a Republican majority will never ever happen again. Mob rule will forced down our throats. And our rights will be stripped away at breakneck speeds. Prepare for the worst, and pray for the best.

its less specifically about God, but more about the values that the Bible teaches based on morality, and how to treat other people. People haven't figured out yet that the values the Bible teaches aren't exclusive to Christianity, but encompasses the moral condition of humanism.

The left wing Atheist views the government as God. The right wing Atheist knows once the majority religion is eliminated... he's next in line for the guillotine.
