So here we have it, it now comes out on a national level that there are men standing in pulpits all over the country that are using their sacred desks for their own personal agendas. Is this a surprise to anyone? The fact that people have used position as a means to gain more power and control is nothing new. It has been going on for thousands of years.
Make a decision today to stand on your individual convictions. If they do not align with mine, then that is fine; but do not let others sway your thinking simply because he or she is in a position of authority or leadership.
My question is this: who holds these people responsible? Do we simply sit by and watch them destroy people, families, and in some cases entire communities with their doctrines of fear and control? Do we just turn away and hope that they go away? The time has come to no longer be the silent majority. True virtue and morality still exists today, however the men and women willing to carry the torch has diminished greatly.
The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing. ~Albert Einstein
