“When a great democracy is destroyed it will not be from enemies from without but rather because of enemies from within.”

–Joseph R. McCarthy

The aforementioned quote by Mr. McCarthy is taken from “Speech to the Republican Women’s Club of Wheeling, West Virginia” on February 9, 1950. Although McCarthy was speaking about a different enemy, the same biblical principle applies during the “here and now.”

Matters not who the perceived enemy may appear to be through humanity’s spiritually darkened eyes,

“A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

What happened in Jena, Louisiana occurred on “our watch” during the post civil rights movement. Here we are, as Americans, still focusing on skin colour instead of focusing on the content of our character.

It’s a crying shame that highly educated, extremely intelligent grown folk are still spilling innocent blood, still killing each other at will, and still dying for nothing fighting civil wars human hands will never win.

The United States of America’s hostile takeover will occur from “without” because our great nation of great people remains too emotionally distracted from “within” by a spiritual enemy with a hidden agenda.

Humanity’s spiritual enemies have mastered the ancient art of “divide and conquer” by employing “systemic, institutionalized hatred” to destroy humanity’s culturally diverse global village one spiritually-blinded mind at a time.

“Why do great people like us with great weaknesses like ours still hate to love one another?”

–Roderick O. Solomon
