[QUOTE="debeguiled, post: 1250836, member: 7867"] I find one of the most comforting aspects of Christianity is the idea that God knows each one of us intimately, and created each of us for a purpose. As men we naturally feel compelled not only to take care of those close to us, we also feel like it is our responsibility to keep apprised of the macro picture, keeping up on politics and what is behind it. Personally, I have found that when Jesus says that taking his yoke to find rest for our souls, it applies to this conundrum in particular. The more you pray, and the more you listen, to more he opens up to you and reveals his plans for you, and when this is the case, you can just let all the rest fall away and focus on what he wants. Not everyone is called to figure out geo-politics, or to get involved even in local politics for the simple reason that they are suited for something else. Not everyone can care for the sick and dying, or listen to the stories of the lonely, or just sit in a hospital room, hour after hour, keeping vigil over the dying. Could you imagine Alex Jones working in a hospice? tl;dr you're asking the wrong crowd. take your question to the top. [/QUOTE]
