It looks like exposing the true nature of fascism as an economic theory is really in fashion the last few days. <a href="http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/09/obamas_fascist_economy.html" rel="nofollow">AT featured a nice summary yesterday</a>.<br /><br /><i>Note that this necessary tension is precisely what millennial movements deny.</i><br /><br />It is a little hard to maintain a positive tension at times. There are a lot of git-er-done Christians. If we are not careful we can start thinking that things are looking mighty grim.<br /><br />I apologize, but I just can't help myself.

These are therefore not only - and not so much - "works" of man, but more of a "fruit," that is, an effect, of the action of the "Spirit" in man.'juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15975754287030568726noreply@blogger.com
