I have no problem with people seeking a better life. I have no problem, in particular, with Compassion.<br /><br />Compassion is God-given. It is a Gift. It is in the human heart and a Grace which is 'topped up, with extra' whenever we use some.<br /><br />But it can be manipulated and faked. It can be coerced and used as a coercive by Evil people - or just plain manipulative ones. People can be fooled and many WANT to be fooled. They want the appearance without the effort and the cost.<br /><br />Politicians vie to outdo one another in false-compassion. <br /><br />Those who would manipulate are not only the politicians but the 'protesters and even the faux-refugees who deliberately cast themselves upon the waters with the intent of crashing outside your door.<br /><br />Providing the wherewithal for life to someone in great need, when they are in great need, is an act of a Good person. Those good people know the answer to the Question: Whom does the Grail serve. But the 'refugee' who continues to rely upon goodwill when their plight is relieved is a manipulative sponger.<br /><br />For politicians and 'Policy' to deliberately sully compassion by using it as a political weapon to 'beat' the opposition politicians, we see a gross distortion of values. It is Blasphemous.Amfortashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474382097575605017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776872662073607566.post-52414735796834730972013-07-30T12:21:15.247+10:002013-07-30T12:21:15.247+10:00Here in America, the politicians give us the same ...Here in America, the politicians give us the same crap.
