Orange is the new Conservative.
Just ask around...................
@HoustonSam Yeah. no...
Every hyphenation merely distracts and destroys. Yet again we will find that to be true.
S'alright. I may be in the wilderness, but what some folks won't get is that I don't mind being in the wilderness. I will keep going, just as I always do, and just redirect my efforts into other Conservative venues.
I caught what you said on the BSA page, and I have found similar - There is an ad-hoc meeting here, now and then... Youngbloods out from the cities trying to make their way homesteading. As service tech to the hillbillies, a fair lot of em come here to get their machinery fixed... And that has lead to them picking my brain in a semi-formal way about the ways I know because I have lived them.
I always start those meetings, whether with a couple or a small group with a prayer. I found it odd that many who arrive new are made very uncomfortable by prayer, stating some sort of tripe about a paganist 'many gods' view as being polite. They soon find that i am not the polite sort, and over time those homesteading meetings wind up being extremely enjoyable hard-hitting Biblical teachings.
It is SO easy to relate those precepts to these young minds, as Yah's lessons fit easily into agricultural terms - something these young folks are beginning to realize first hand. And it is an amazement how open they become, rather quickly, as their present conditions have brought them close.
And in that of course, Burke makes his way. The practicality and commonality with religious precepts are undeniable and a quick companion to what those coming back to the bosom of the earth need to learn.
Politics is but a facet. And a poorly lit one at that. I have made more difference with these young folks than all that I ever did in the Republican fold.
