Episode 812: Question the Narrative!!!

Dan Clements, Your Constitutional Warrior Thursday June 1, 2017

So many Americans have so many differing opinions, and believe the opinions of so many other Americans, and the narrative that they craft, it’s hard to tell who is right and who is wrong. Having an opinion and believing a narrative is ok as long as they are based in fact and reality!!!

Too many Americans totally believe everything that government tells them, without question. Too many Americans believe that if someone is elected to a governmental office, that person must be very smart and knowledgeable. And to complicate the matter, too many Americans check out of politics after an election and don’t check up on their vote to see if the office holder is doing a good job or not.

In Thoreau’s Civil Disobedience,Thoreau was paraphrasing the motto of The United States Magazine and Democratic Review: “The best government is that which governs least.” Too many Americans rely on the judgment of government, and forgets that government is made up of flawed people just like us!!! Americans seem afraid that if we stop relying on government, the country is going to fall apart. That just is not true, America was not built by government, it was built by simple folks just like you and me!!! Always QUESTION THE NARRATIVE!!!

Daily Bible Reading: 1Peter 3:13-16 And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good?14 But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “AND DO NOT BE AFRAID OF THEIR THREATS, NOR BE TROUBLED.”15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear;16 having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.
