1 When the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, which thou art going in to possess, and shall have destroyed many nations before thee, the Hethite, and the Gergezite, and the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, seven nations much more numerous than thou art, and stronger than thou:  2 And the Lord thy God shall have delivered them to thee, thou shalt utterly destroy them. Thou shalt make no league with them, nor shew mercy to them:  3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them. Thou shalt not give thy daughter to his son, nor take his daughter for thy son:  4 For she will turn away thy son from following me, that he may rather serve strange gods, and the wrath of the Lord will be kindled, and will quickly destroy thee.  5 But thus rather shall you deal with them: Destroy their altars, and break their statues, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven things” -Deuteronomy vii.1-5

It is amazing how much the lines of dialogue in Braveheart apply to this war for reality and soul of America. They’ll come to me wholly involuntarily when I come across a story, and after some time has passed I realize how incognizant I’ve been to the voice of the lines narrating my reflections. Quirky, perhaps, but the lines just stick on rewind sometimes. Here are two articles that employ the grand storytelling of so many a man’s favorite film from 1995:

A (Short) 1083-Word “Paragraph” on the Chaos of It All Right Now

“A Country of Our Own”

There is another line from that movie, spoken by the evil Longshanks, that we can reverse engineer so to speak for the good.

If you missed the video below on our timeline over the weekend, here is another crack at it. We also posted an adjacent story this morning, Trump, Landry, and the Call to Chivalry Camp for Young Boys that is certainly worth your time, especially since it returns to an “interesting” call to Governor Landry back in January.

Regarding the video below, Trump said, “We will promote positive education about the nuclear family, the roles of mothers and fathers, and celebrating rather than erasing the things that make men and women different and unique.”

He also talks about the “madness” of transgenderism.

A black-pilling cynic will say, “Yeah but let’s see if he actually does it.” To that I would so say, granted. But I would also say, when was the last time you heard a politician in the position of the high ground as Trump is now say anything remotely close to anything positive about the nuclear family, the roles of mothers and fathers, and the uniqueness of men and women?

I’d venture to say some people will have to look up what “nuclear family” even means.

There are a bevy of black pills out there concerning Trump, and because I follow end times prophecy material, some of it seems worth at least some caution. But the caution, as I have tried to inspire time and time again, isn’t even necessary if we don’t put Trump on a savior’s pedestal in the first place. This is We the People’s fight, and we must be iron sharpening iron with each other so that no government leader–not even Trump if it ever came to that–could steal our faith and strength in Christ. Accept this victory for what it is–a signal of virtue amidst the comical 4B noise. It shouldn’t take any black pill evidence whatsoever to make us stay leery of Trump anyway.

As Longshanks says in the movie, “If we can’t get them out, we’ll breed them out.”

May everyone named directly or referenced indirectly ask forgiveness and do penance for their sins against America and God. I fight this information war in the spirit of justice and love for the innocent, but I have been reminded of the need for mercy and prayers for our enemies. I am a sinner in need of redemption as well after all, for my sins are many. In the words of Jesus Christ himself, Lord forgive us all, for we know not what we do.
