I Think the Toast is Done

Spiritual Blindness Pushed America to Communal Suicide

I am not doing a great job of avoiding reading the news. I’m doing a lot better than I was a week or two back, but I need to be more determined. I’m still reading a few things here and there.

Some of my friends are not helpful. They contact me with political messages, and they tell me about things that have happened in the outside world. Outside of my farm, I mean.

One of my friends told me there were cities where antichristians were striving to defund police forces. It sounded disgraceful, but I didn’t think it would amount to anything. Leftism is all about posing and pretending. I thought it was just antichristian leftists huffing and puffing for Facebook and Instagram, and I didn’t think there was any possibility that it would go anywhere.

Today, sadly, I read that it’s a very serious movement with considerable support.

What can I say about that? Imagine life near a city without police. Do I have to explain what a bad idea that is? It’s like trying to make people understand that setting themselves on fire is stupid. If it’s not obvious to you already, there is no way to make you understand it.

I didn’t understand how far gone Minnesota was. Americans tend to think of midwesterners as solid people with conservative morals, but that’s apparently far from the truth.

The friend who shared the story said he hoped the police would be defunded. He was strongly in favor of it. He wanted people to find out what life without police was like.

I marvel at the poor judgment of those who want cities without police, but I don’t want to see them get what they want. Essentially, they’re in favor of taking a problem normally found only in certain minority ghettos and extending it to entire counties. In ghettos, people can get away with murder and other violent crimes, not to mention property crimes, because the residents refuse to cooperate with the police and because the police are reluctant to respond in the first place. As a result, ghettos are full of bullies who get their way every day. This is what the defunders want for their cities, except it will be worse, because the police won’t exist at all.

What would happen in a city with no police? Would the governor bulk up the state police and send them to take over? Would the National Guard take over? I don’t even know if these things could be done legally.

It’s obvious that gangs would fill the vacuum. There is no point in pretending it’s debatable. They would exert much more power in cities, and they would do as much as they could to take over affluent suburbs. That’s what gangs do.

I got up this morning and started looking at homes in Tennessee. Florida is going to be a blue state soon, and even though I live in the reddest county in the state, the thought of having leftists take my firearms, plunder the wealth I need for my old age, and force me into a lifestyle in which I am on trial every day simply for being a white male Christian is too much. I don’t think I could stand it.

I don’t know a single person in Tennessee, unless you count an uncle who is about as close to me as you are. I can’t tell the good places from the bad. If God doesn’t guide me, I could end up in a place where I couldn’t be happy. I love northern Florida. I love my house and my farm. I love the people. But if I stay here, I’ll just be waiting for the waters to rise and drown me. When it happens, I’ll have to say I was warned.

I always feel frustrated when I think of friends and relatives who live in godless areas. I warn them about the future, but I don’t think many of them take me seriously. As long as things are tolerable this week, they think the places where they live are acceptable. They don’t really believe antichristians are going to take over and torment them. They’re inviting disaster for themselves and their children, and I believe stubbornness is the reason.

How can I criticize people who won’t listen, if I won’t listen?

For years, I’ve been saying America was going to collapse and be taken over by antichristians, but it’s still shocking to see it happen. It’s shocking that we could be so stupid. How can anyone take white privilege seriously and view it as a valid reason to persecute and censor? How can anyone think it makes sense to burn his own neighborhood? How can anyone be enraged to the point of murder by a handful of police-on-black homicides while feeling virtually nothing about the thousands of black-on-black murders which are committed every year? How can people not see how wrong they are?

If black lives matter, why aren’t the rioters enraged by the fact that people in their ranks have murdered multiple black people during the riots? How is killing innocent black people a valid form of pro-black protest?

How can so many people who are not black or Hispanic participate so zealously in their own slander and destruction? The rioters can’t be won over or placated. They’re not interested in peace or justice. They just want to hurt the rest of us. Kissing up to them doesn’t work. They’re attacking liberals all over the country, including journalists they know to be with sympathetic outlets.

They’re not mistaking their allies for enemies. They just don’t care. The riots aren’t about justice or logic. They’re driven by racism and envy. If you’re not black or Hispanic, or if you’re successful, they want to take what you have, hurt you physically, humiliate you, and kill you.

The Bible says God gives persistent sinners over to sin. He stops trying to talk them out of it. When he stops talking to them, they develop a type of insanity, believing good is evil and evil is good. How true that is.

It’s terrible to see the truth die in America. Human beings can’t be saved without the truth that comes from God. There is no other way to be helped. Without God’s truth, we go to hell, plain and simple, and hell grows inside us while we live, preparing us for the destination where we fit in so well.

If I leave and go to a safer place, it won’t mean I’ve located a haven where the antichristians will never rule. They’ll take Tennessee over, too. They’ll take over the entire world eventually. I think God is just telling me to move so I’ll have more years of peace and victory. With any luck, I’ll be dead before the fleas and leeches show up on my doorstep with authority from the government.

How will I move all my things? It would take a month just to box things up. Should I have a sale and go with very little? I don’t think so. I believe God has a purpose in my tools and firearms and so on. I don’t have much furniture, so that won’t be a big problem. I would call the Salvation Army to get my mother’s remaining bedroom furniture and my dad’s coffee tables. I don’t like those things anyway.

I thought God might provide a wife by now, but that has not happened. Not even close. Moving by myself would be difficult. On the other hand, I moved once with no help while caring for a dementia patient, so maybe I’m concerned about nothing.

I wish the world would change, but it never will. Fitting in is an impossibility and not to be desired.

I may have 30 more years left. Argh. Experiencing old age on this deteriorating planet is not something I look forward to. It’s daunting to think there is so much time left in my tour of duty. God has kept me safe, comfortable, and prosperous, though, and I assume he will continue to do so. Surely I will have a purpose that will make staying in this place worth it. I don’t have a choice, so I have to make the best of things.

    We had some riots here in the UK too. Small-scale compared to what’s been happening in the US though. At least firearms are in short supply here, so nobody got shot.

    There was some violence in America when I was living there — the Rodney King affair I think. Nothing much happened in Sarasota though.

    I have to say I’m glad I live here now — society is a lot more stable, or at least it seems that way to me. I don’t know what the answer is for the USA. I think some of the big problems are ingrained and can probably only be managed, not eliminated.

    Some movers will actually pack your stuff up for you. Obviously they’ll charge more for that than just loading & unloading a truck.
