Others,
Constitutional government documents principles aimed at
fairness in political leadership. Human rights are listed in addition to the
demarcation of procedures for organizational structures. When a constitution
establishes favor for a single party, it is inherently unfair.
Freedom of religion is a necessary clause in
the listing of human rights. While it has been incorrectly identified as the
cause for western decadence, it correctly defines the government’s role in
relation to religion. The state is not to establish religion. Neither is it to
prevent the free exercise of faith. Citizens of the state have the right to
choose or reject religion.
It is incorrect to define a state religion
given this provision for freedom. It follows that the definition of a state as
Islamic, Christian or as any other proponent of religion or anti-religion is
wrong as well. This includes atheism.
“Islamic” countries have constitutions that
include the right to vote, the freedom to assemble in more than one party and
the listing of other human rights. The listing of Islam as the state religion
however, is undeniably a flaw in the constitutional organization for the state.
Libya liberated itself from the tyranny of Gaddafi,
but their current constitution promises to establish another form of
dictatorship. The “Arab Spring” will not succeed in anything but changing
dictators if they fail to list freedom of religion as a provision for human
rights.

Mercy
Psalm 91, Isa.53
When you live your life as well as you can
you don’t deserve to suffer cruelty.
Faith in the LORD is a refuge.
It is a haven for establishing goals.
It is a hospital for recovery from harm.
Protection is provided according
to liberty within the justice of the law.

They taught people to live with respect

Jesus was for justice.
Defense was condoned as natural,
but cruelty and violence
were condemned as pride.

He had proclaimed love as a cure for infirmities.
He had carried the burden for our insecurities,
yet he was afflicted and convicted as guilty.
He had been punished as though
he was being stricken down by God.

How excellent is his majesty?

Light has become his attire.
The wealth of his legacy
will never tire.
Love is still the basis
for learning within the law.

===================
When recovery is seen as agreement with leadership
irrespective of truth, the recovery is concession to dictatorship. Capitalism
works when prosperity is earned in relation to the effort to provide a service.
Products are services. When capitalism supports disproportionate award to the
leader, the CEO, it is not efficient in building the economy. It is an
effective promotion of dictatorship however.
While I don’t agree with the implication that religion
promotes irresponsibility, I do agree that there are those who advocate for
irresponsibly disproportionate pay scales. All too many of these individuals claim
affiliation to a religion.
Responsibility

Leaders who receive incredibly large salaries are often
defended by the limitations for humanity. They can’t be expected to be perfect.
They are human, all too human. Nevertheless, they are receiving pay that makes
them into gods in the social hierarchy.
Meanwhile, they fire people who are actually working like gods just to maintain a paycheck to pay for the cost of living. The cost of living is being driven up in order to pay for the CEO salaries in the interim. Thus, this incredibly destructive fiction is set up wherein the boss gets big money because he isn’t perfect, while the employee is fired for not meeting expectations for perfection.

Romney and Ryan Republicans are irresponsible because they
support dictatorship. If you want to be a responsible citizen with or without
faith, vote for those who support the correction of the elitist advantage.
Have mercy on all the people of the nation. Support
reasonable pay scales. Show respect for those who are not paid for their work.
Support social programs that limit military spending by providing services to
citizens for the country.
