🤯 The Lunatic Left Series is a (near) daily curation of X posts and other items that catch my eye while I do my morning news “rounds” over ☕️ coffee. It’s not meant to be comprehensive, merely representative of the lunatic left with whom we share a country 🇺🇸.
Let’s see what a high school in Indiana is teaching the kids:
Minnesota continues it’s insane decline:
AWFLs are the WORST. And Democrats are racist, exhibit eleventymillion:
These people are insufferable.
That’s it for today! Have an awesome Tuesday, patriots! ❤️🇺🇸
Mrs. Walter,
I very much appreciated your Feb. 8 American Thinker article, “Losing my Religion.” I wrote a 15-page response for myself. It may be of interest to you. I formed a gmail site, not my primary site, to be used only for communication with others which contains the Word file response. I do not know whether you can access it, but the site is james.to.one777@gmail.com, password: james-to-one777. If you are interested and cannot access that gmail site, you can form a disposable gmail site to which I can send the response. I do plan to form an accessible web site (which I do not expect to be of interest to many people) on: “A Parent’s Effort to Understand the Definition, Defense, and Transmission of the Christian Faith,” but that will take some time.
The following are excerpts from the 15-page response I wrote for myself:
I can feel the pain
…
I do not demand that anyone believe as I believe. We must develop our own perspectives.
I am, however, passing along some thoughts, in extreme brevity, that helped me deal with the issues you present, specifically, (1) “how could I love a God who had brought this much pain” (this is the most pressing and valid question of all humanity), (2) “a grand design,” that is, “Does a God, a Creator exist or are we the result of Physics and Chemistry?”, (3) Jesus “the only way” being offensive given “Hindus,” “Buddhists,” etc., and (4) whether a particular church or philosophy is the answer or as much of an answer as we can get.
While the existence of a Creator is the logical place to start, because of your “recoil” at the idea of Jesus being the “only way,” issue (3), and I fully empathize and understand, that is where I will start, … . I will then convey my persuasions on issue (2), a grand design, issue (4), a religious group, and finally, issue (1), pain. For me, issues 2, 3, and 4 need at least some resolution before I can even consider issue (1), pain.
(Issue 3) “The Only Way?”
C. S. Lewis, an eminent philosopher, an atheist who became a believer, stated the following in Mere Christianity (please do not react until you read the second sentence and understand the fully credible (and biblical) implication that, yes, there are those who never heard of Jesus who think they are Hindus, Buddhists, etc. who will go to Heaven):
“We do know that no person can be saved except through Christ. We do not know that only those who know Him can be saved by Him.” C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity, Book II, Chapter 5, sometimes titled “The Practical Conclusion.”

(Issue 2) A Grand Design
…
On the presence of Creator, I published the following very abbreviated article on American Thinker: http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/11/the_statement_of_chemistry_on_the_origin_of_life.html.
…
A current source confirming the statement of the article (and the chemistry) is the eminent Dr. James Tour as noted in Article 1: https://evolutionnews.org/2023/08/origin-of-life-james-tours-sensational-60-day-challenge-to-ten-top-researchers/, Article 2: https://scienceandculture.com/2023/10/on-origin-of-life-chemist-james-tour-has-successfully-called-these-researchers-bluff/).

(Issue 4) The Perfect Church?
…
There is no perfect church and no perfect church member. You may have to look and engage in some behavioral compromise to find a church, or you can remain unassociated. I have found that some compromise, accepting different positions except on the one necessary thing is worth doing because you will find people who will love you (of course, imperfectly) and pray for you and who also need your prayer.

(Issue 1) Pain “I concluded that I couldn’t love a God who would let me be so hurt — .”
Sometimes God is hard to “love”
…
The three posts were (1) “The Flood Came, and So Did Jesus” (on the Hurricane Helene flood and the demise of 7 yr old Micah Drye who cried, “Jesus, Jesus, save me. Jesus, I hear you. Jesus, I’m calling on you.” And Micah was gone.), (2) “Camp Mystic Apocalypse,” (3) “Charlie Kirk!? Why?”.
Below is the shortest of the three posts, “Charlie Kirk!? Why?” I find the conclusion, my best guess at “Why?”, emotionally distressing, but it is the conclusion at which I arrive when considering the pain we experience.
Charlie Kirk!? Why? (posted to FB on 10.07.25)
A believer dedicated to truth, taken! Dedicated to Jesus Christ, to faith, to his family, to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Dedicated to rational interaction with those who disagree. Taken!
The assassination forces us to consider the profound question of our presence. What is God doing?

A Hope
I hope that your abuser meets you with tears of remorse in Heaven, and yet with gratitude that you were enabled to continue in spite of the pain and be a heavenly asset to those whom you loved, to your family, and to those of us who appreciate your perspective on American Thinker.
