“A Rudderless Morality on a Shoreless Sea”
Guest post by John L. Kachelman, Jr.
There is a “black hole of oblivion,” a “wall of eternal shame” inevitably destined for the politicians, their deep-pocket supporters and the quislings serving immoral and irreligious administrations. These betray their country by aiding an invading enemy, serving in a renegade government; being the fifth column.
These repudiate the nation’s governing Rule of Law. These stir chaos and division furthering their evil. They speak of freedom but focus on servitude. They deserve the unforgiving historical legacy of their wasted careers.
The critical requisite for national stability and permanency is morality. The nation’s executives, legislators, judiciary, and ALL citizens, are obligated to maintain exemplary morality.
On October 11, 1798, John Adams wrote to the Massachusetts Militia:
“We have no Government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
Tragically today the “whale” envisioned by Adams has broken the net. Profanity and vulgar speech are unrestrained and evidences national ignorance. Courtesy respecting the intrinsic value of human dignity is gone. Personal honor is scorned. The “public servant” has morphed into the “public elite.” Truth has stumbled and fallen in the streets.
The current moral environment of our nation reminds me of Elisha Gray’s comment. He was speaking in terms of scientific reality but the general application is apt.
“A man who is all theory is like ‘a rudderless ship on a shoreless sea’…Theories and speculations may be indulged in with safety only as long as they are based on facts that we can go back to at all times and know that we are on solid ground.”
Gray’s point is true—only proven facts provide safety. Undoubtedly Gray would have been appalled at how his beloved “science” deceived millions regarding C-19. True science is not based upon theory or speculation but on proven results.
A national catastrophe was foreseen in President Washington’s Farewell Address:
“Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, Religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of Patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great Pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of Men and citizens. The mere Politician, equally with the pious man ought to respect and to cherish them…Let it simply be asked where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths, which are the instruments of investigation in Courts of Justice? And let us with caution indulge the supposition, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that National morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”
AMERICA!! Do you realize that when these two pillars are deserted, the security for property, for reputation, for life in our nation is extinguished?
There are illustrations of this evil today…
- An article reveals the evil of the Democrats redefining morality. Documented are troubling revelations on the flexible approach some in the Clinton/Obama/Biden cabal took toward basic morality. Listen to this confession, “If you believe that Donald Trump was and is an existential threat to democracy, you can rationalize anything, including sometimes doing undemocratic things.” This frames the Democrat Party’s morality! If it does not, where are the voices condemning such rhetoric?
- An article in The Gateway Pundit by Mike LaChance reports that “Beto O’Rourke spoke to a crowd in Texas this weekend and made it clear that Democrats will do whatever it takes to regain power, saying ‘f**k the rules.’” My 11th grade teacher stated that profanity, cursing and vulgarisms are only used by the ignorant. Beto’s comments thus reveal an intellectual ignorance and a moral morass! Such traits identify the Democrat Party elites.
- A Tic-Tok posting @emilykschrader states, “This little brat from the free Palestine cult, Guy Christensen, has been spewing garbage for 19 months about Gaza and now is openly calling to murder Israeli citizens on U.S. soil to 3.4 million TikTok followers. This is not protected speech it’s incitement to violence.” This public call for murder is received with silence from the Democrats. The lost morality of Christensen is seen in his comment regarding those who are standing up to condemn the evils perpetuated in the Gaza: “We must instead meet this crackdown with escalation.” Those in the USA supporting this maniacal evil reveal a rudderless national ship on the sea of chaos.
- Ben B@dejo @BenTelAviv highlighted the “free Palestine” immorality speaking of two murdered. It was an open display of immorality. “Yaron Lischinsky was a Christian Israeli. Sarah Milgrim was an American Jew. A Jew-hater murdered these two innocent young people — a Christian and an American — and then chanted ‘free, free Palestine’.”
- The Gateway Pundit’s Cristina Laila shockingly reported “Nevada DHHS Specialist Caught on Camera Admitting to ‘Bending the Rules’ to Provide Benefits for Illegal Aliens.” When asked about justifying illegalities in Nevada, Mack responded bluntly: “I make it so. I bend the rules a lot.” He added later, “I will twist and turn our provisions to fit the way that I want them to be.” Morality has become a personal “twist and turn” to allow whatever is desired.
- The Western Journal’s Brian Chai reported under the title “Disgusting: New Company Charging $5,999 to Advise Which Humans Should Live and Which Should Die.” There is no moral compass directing this rudderless immorality!
- And as a final point of the lunacy intent on removing morality and crushing religion in our nation, comes this report from US Weekly, “Only Fans’ Tiffany Wisconsin Blames Divorce on Husband Finding Video of Her With 20 Men.” The fault is not her immoral fornication but the discovery of the video.
The above list can be quickly multiplied. From every nation. In every language. Enacted by every legislature. One expects that within the United States of America this immorality will be condemned, censored, and fiercely challenged. This expectation comes because we are a nation founded on religion and morality. In reality such immorality is shrugged away and some Democrats are intent on codifying their immorality! Remember President Adam’s wise words, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
The critical presence of religion and morality in our nation’s history is found by a simple search.
Historically religion and morality control or condemn a nation’s history. Those elected to legislate, execute, and judicate the national compass are responsible for the nation’s trajectory. But also, in our Representative Republic, each citizen is obligated to make sure the national compass remains “true north” in allegiance to the Almighty.
Astutely noted is, “The secular world, devoid of the perceptions which the City of God brings to it, is like a rudderless ship on a treacherous sea.”
Current history is revealing the immorality that was approved and sanctioned during the Obama-Biden Administrations. Such cannot and will not be ignored. The names hang on the eternal “wall of shame.” Those serving as the bureaucratic quislings will be sacrificed by those higher up in the food chain. Such a reality urges all to come forward with specifics detailing the corruption and identifying the perpetrators and maybe such whistleblowers will find degrees of mercy for their immoral roles.
A lasting historical fact—Those leading politics with a rudderless morality on a sea of chaos will be consigned to the black hole of history’s “has-beens.” The mockery they spewed at their opponents boomerangs, and they become the target. Their bitter attacks, intended to destroy others, destroy themselves. The underlings that carried out the evil directives, will live in misery. All involved have no gilded honor. They have no respected reputation. They are consumed in the black hole of their rudderless morality!
Let me conclude with this one fact—There is hope for a nation sailing rudderless on the sea of chaos. That hope depends upon the citizen’s choice. Will the citizens choose to repudiate those urging a destruction of the Rule of Law? Will the citizens continue to approve and elect those who place themselves above the prevailing law “rationalizing anything” to further immorality?
Long ago a nation struggled with a devolving religion and morality. A prophet was sent saying, “There is hope for your future.” But this hope depended on the citizens answering the query, “How long will you go here and there?” (The Bible, Jeremiah the prophet 31:17, 22).
AMERICA! “How long will YOU go here and there?” How long will YOU flounder on the sea of chaos without a proper rudder? How long will you continue to elect politicians who will “twist and turn” the law for selfish purposes? How long will you support those who can “rationalize anything” to secure their immorality? How long will you applaud those who are intellectually ignorant and live in a moral morass?
There is hope but as a nation we must cease going here and there, adrift, rudderless on the sea of chaos. We must return to Washington’s foundation of religion and morality!
