Independence Day July 4 2026

 I believe Social Media is the worst invention, just ahead of Television, talk radio and Hollywood.

We are less tolerant than ever before of disagreeing folks. Hate has become the normal for differing viewpoints.

We can no longer associate with those that are not fully on board with our thoughts and agenda.

Today is July 4 2026.

This nation has become deeply divided, and from where I sit it is the deepest divide since the Civil war. Brother fights against brother, daughter disowns mother, father grieves for a son who can no longer talk to him for the differences.

Politics are 24/7 thanks to the things I mentioned at the beginning and it was never meant to be, it was never intended to be such a lightning rod, or even a way of life. Politics when I grew up was once every 4 years for 2 or 3 months and then we moved on and our lives were basically unaffected by it.

What happened? what caused this?

Lack of teaching yet over educating? Parents not showing them it is not a big deal? No longer having a debate club? Not teaching woodworking? Not Giving hobbies or purpose outside of social agendas?

Could be any number of things, but if we do not get away from social media we will never be social again.

Threads, instagram, fb, and the list goes on - is a place for people to tear each other down, and face no consequences for it.

We turn a deaf ear to it, the good and decent people who have a life shut it off. Yet there are those that will holler and yell at every single post, load bots who do the same just to make it look like their point of view is universally believed.

It all goes back to the adage "the squeaking wheel gets the grease", or the "loudest is not always the smartest".

Same thing is happening to the church, there are so many online "experts" "theologians" "Pastors" who truly have no idea what the Bible says, but they have coopted the name of Christian to water down what the Bible says and make it easier to swallow and less consequential.

And just as in politics, the decent purpose filled people turn a deaf ear because we are busy. 

Yet, we have now reached the point that if you talk about these false prophets or question them you are called hateful, bigot, or worse. They will shout you down making it seem as if you are in the minority.

We are at the point where truth is now hate speech.

Today July 4 2026 it is time we stand and let them know that no matter what they do we are free from their bullying, their name calling. Truth is truth and we will not back down.

If we do not stand now we, and America, will fall. Apologists are being attacked, doxxed, and slandered. We the normal decent people would never do that if we disagree with someone so it never occurs to us to dop these things. They do and will continue to do so.

Folks, if we do not make a concerted stand now to stop being silent and speak out against the things that are taking over our nation we will not have a nation we recognize too much longer.

The ones speaking truth are being threatened and terrorized, and we are remaining silent rather than coming to their defense. Speak up and if you are scared then at least just support the ones standing.

The world needs truth, not affirmations.

Joh 8:31  Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 

Joh 8:32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
