Never In Our Lifetime Has America Been So Divided

We read that a St Paul, MN school teacher wrote a post on social media and asked, "so who is going to take one for the team and kill Kavanaugh?"  Thankfully, she is going to be in deep trouble for suggesting the murder of a Supreme Court Justice.

We watch the Black Lives Matter stop traffic and scream profanities at drivers who are white.

We watch ANTIFA protesters block traffic and scream profanities at anyone who questions their methods.

The nation is on the edge of violence...at all the evidence points to leftist-liberals starting it.

Never in our lifetimes has America been so divided, and we are in danger of tearing ourselves at the seams. What's more, it looks like things will only get worse - much worse - in the days ahead.

An article on the Study Finds website states that, "It may not be so hard to believe during this murky political landscape, but a new study finds the divide between Democrats and Republicans is the worst it's ever been, more so than many people may even think.

"The research, conducted by Zachary Neal, an associate professor of psychology and global urban studies at Michigan State University, is among the first to measure polarization not only by examining the frequency of parties working together, but also by demonstrating how they've grown more distant than any other time in modern history."

With the confirmation of Justice Kavanaugh, followed by the midterm elections, that polarization will only increase in the days ahead. That, in turn, will lead to the stiffening of each opposition position, as the left attacks the right and the right attacks the left, confirming each side's worst suspicions about the other: "You are even worse than I thought you were!"

The pro-life movement will be freshly energized with another conservative jurist on the Supreme Court and with a pro-life president at the helm. The pro-abortion movement will be freshly energized as well - not to mention utterly outraged - launching an all-out assault on conservatives and pro-lifers. And this is just one aspect of today's massive cultural and political divide.

According to Prof. Neal, "What I've found is that polarization has been steadily getting worse since the early 1970s. Today, we've hit the ceiling on polarization."

The early 1970s reflected the turbulence of the counterculture revolution, a time of massive division between the young and the old in America.

The older generation was shouting, "America, love it or leave it!" The younger generation responded by raising two fingers for the peace sign, saying, "Make love, not war!"

Since then, those divisions have worked themselves out along sociological lines more than generational lines. And over the decades, the lines have been drawn more clearly.

More recently, President Obama had a chance to be a unifying leader as our nation's first black president. Unfortunately, he often chose the way of identity politics, thereby inflaming a spirit of division in our midst.

President Trump, by appealing to the dissatisfied state of many Americans, has rallied tens of millions. But in so doing, he has poured salt in our festering wounds, deepening rather than bridging those divides.

We continue to wonder why America hasn't collapsed already?  We wonder if it is GOD ALONE who is holding this nation together?

We know that when America collapses it will lead to the financial collapse of the entire world.  We also know that if the US Military isn't around to keep the peace that the world will spiral into war at a very fast pace.  China will take Taiwan, Russia will take whatever they want, Turkey will take whatever they want, Europe will stand on the sidelines crying and saying, "But guys, guys...please, please, please don't do this!", but will be powerless to do anything about it.

Pray for America.  Pray for Trump.  Pray for our enemies...which right now seems to be lots of folks who call themselves Democrats.
