Well yeah. I think that although many of us have differing opinions on the details the general form of evil is unmistakable.

Well yeah. I think that although many of us have differing opinions on the details the general form of evil is unmistakable.
We are in a battle for the soul of our nation, as the president said, and ultimately for the soul of the world. Although as the Apostle says we do not love the world or the things of the world, at the same time there is a difference between Judeo-Christian Western Civilization and the Worship of Power, Darkness, Perversion, and Death which has risen up so powerfully.
The enemy seeks to drag us back to the darkness that covered the ancient world, where we might well say life was nasty, brutish, and short. And for themselves they seek transhuman immortality, through neurolink, and AI, and other such nonsense, a digital fantasyland where they can cast off the ties between themselves and the Creator and remake themselves in their own image.
And yes, the only answer to this evil is the One God who did not seek to be above humanity but descended to be a man, not just a person but a man. Not a man of means or great intelligence or charisma but a homeless man who His own family thought was crazy, not a choice most of us would make. He joined not merely the poor but the criminal class, He was on the lam while He was still on the tit, from an infanticidal king who I can picture much easier now than I could in 2019. He was accused of mis, dis, and malinformation by a government that could not deal with His out of the box noncompliance, by His refusal to play the game. And in the most classic mass formation psychosis of all time the same ones who cried, 'Hosanna to the Son of David' on Sunday cried 'Crucify Him' on Friday. It all feels so much nearer to our world than it used to.
Whatever anyone says, there is only One God in any Pantheon who knows what it is like to have His back against the wall, One God who has been the underdog, One God who has been rejected by society, rejected by religion, forsaken by all men, and BTW faced down the Experts and the Lawyers, and the Bankers, and the Dark Power behind them, fought them in a way they could not comprehend, used Lefthanded Power(as Martin Luther put it, who perhaps knew best of all men how to wield His Master's power to topple evil in high places), conquered the strong by weakness, the rich by poverty, the wise by foolishness, and the winners by losing, that He might be mightily with the weak, the poor, the foolish Losers every time the Enemy came after us again.
