And God only knows what evil AI, as a tool, will assist in these practitioners of the religion of Secular Hu- manism, but that is a discussion for another day. In summary, there is a growing group of individuals who doggedly refuse to accept reality, intent on changing America to fit their emotional needs. One might say they are an amoral and unjust group of in- dividuals who desperately want the USA to become a communist Sodom and Gomorrah. This is quite curious, because in actuality, the only hope that these liberal thinkers have of maintaining their own liberties is to be shown exactly where they are taking this nation and be “born again” to truth.

In life we all have troubling de- cisions to make. We know the problem but is the solution A, B, C or all of the above? Once the dust has settled and the solutions
employed (usually after considerable time and effort), we often discover that all things being equal, “the sim- plest conclusion (was) the correct one!” Not what we necessarily imagined but what is supported by reality, which can best be described as a combination of Nat- ural Law and Common Sense. Some might define this simpler process as divine intervention while oth- ers would say “Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter
necessitatem,” which translates as “entities should not be multiplied be- yond necessity,” best known as Occam’s razor. In other words, don’t make it more difficult than it is. Don’t complicate or even make things worse with our human imagination,
America’s near future. If Amer- ica goes down, it will be due in large part to the fact that those that “know to do good, don’t” — and that means you and me. So, this is not a “Mission Im- possible” and we are going to need to employ an Occam’s Ra- zors approach in

Problems that are more often than not, multiplied by subjective reasoning and the denial of reality. For example, here in America there are well-in- tended citizens who actually believe that morals are relative and life has no meaning, They have con- vinced themselves and insist that others — in spite of historical evidence to the contrary — accept Social- ism as a proven way to best run a government. These liberal thinkers also believe that trespassing is a right (open borders) and that man is the measure of all things. Provided that “man” in this case is part of the proper political party or demographic group, of course. The aforementioned entitled group also believes that children are a burden, there is no discernible dif- ference between men and women, evolution is fact and that your sex is merely a choice — purposely ig- noring physical signs to the contrary.

You are not going to accomplish your mission if you first start by accusing your audience of being wrong.

There are other “Razors” to engage but the key here is to start the process instead of becoming a cham- pion at complaining. This nation doesn’t need more critics, it needs more doers.
