Division equals Desolation

Just a little lesson in division.

In the biblical book of Genesis; chapter 11:6, we're provided fodder for a great meditation chew. "And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do."

The essence of this, penned centuries ago verse, illustrates yet another truth that's prevailed over time; and provides us with a lighthouse's beam,.... guiding us through the modernistic fogs of personal opinions! The simple essence? If a country has one language the people act as one; insuring that what they envision and begin, they will accomplish. If one isn't blinded by the "god" of this world, seeing planks of division rising within our borders is commonplace,...
and one simply can't overlook one of the most stealthy wedges dividing our population; dual languages,... and it's being driven by the hammers of bleeding hearts, treasonists, personal agendas, ignorance, daytime talk show host sentiments; and that popular old classic - stupidity.

A country that evolves into a dual language situation hasn't honored it's tradition, protected it's people, nor concerned itself with it's future. What's an especially alarming scenario? Citizens welcoming division and being found haphazardly promoting and accommodating it, whilst the forces of darkness smile down upon it all !!

Another verse, Matthew 12:25, delivers even more relevancy for us,..."And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand."

I know, I know,..."multiculturalism and diversity are strengthening our country." Yes, if it's completed in true form. Fresh ideas, fashions, foods, and other ethnically diverse additions do weave colorful threads into our national tapestry, but two languages creates divisions, dysfunctions, and dangers.

Logically, and spiritually,..it's really a no-brainer,...and once again that nagging pendulum in our head swings...Am I ....part of the problem, or solution? And it swings...problem-solution, problem-solution, problem-solution,...where it stays....only we may decide...
