Saturday Bullets: More votes

• @ the barber, this Friday afternoon. 

• She was discussing the lack of personal accountability for actions, by many persons, in our present British Columbia culture.

• I opined (paraphrased), that this suits liberal, social democratic governments because many a person does not want to take significant moral responsibility for his/her life.

• For balance, I fully accept that there are also  reasonable premises and conclusions that explain other reasons for human problems.

• However, an example of the lack of people taking significant, moral responsibility is the problem of the addiction to illegal drugs.

• Many in the society and the media, prioritize expectations that the government (s) should do more to solve problems, over the individual responsibility of especially, adult persons.

• Most western governments embrace these types of  political leanings now, even so called 'conservative' governments.

• Governments take these wishes of many in society and also through laws and regulations, take more power in the process of earning more votes. 

• Even so, the New Testament, in particular, mentions that there is judgement for each member of humanity post-mortem (Revelation 20-22, perhaps general for all of humanity, but at least the unregenerate, 2 Corinthians 5: 10, for those truly regenerate (John 3, Titus 3) within the Christian Church).
