Lake Haigler November 03

We live in trying times. The way things are supposed to be is nothing like they are. The Constitution, Democracy, the Rule of Law, Truth, Justice, Equality, Freedom… Have all been replaced with Authoritarianism, Mobster Rule, Obscenity, Atrocity, Brutality, Cruelty, Inhumanity, Ruthlessness, Iniquity, Abomination, etc. without end. No one in position to enforce goodness is good. They all are without scruples, principles, conscience, morals or a recognition of the difference between right and wrong. The leadership of this country is rotten, amoral and unscrupulous. Under sail without direction or compass, led only by whim and fancy and the fantasy of excellence and perfection. Excellent only as an example of lunacy and perfect only as an exhibition of insanity and complete instability. Self-destruction is inevitable, but in the meantime, the collapse of the systems holding things together will be the bane of MAGA absurdity through decades of recovery.

In the meantime, I recommend erecting Wailing Walls and making regular visits there marking the only kind of wall Trump was capable of building.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
