Dead is dead little friend. Don't have sympathy for them, they couldn't give a damn. And there is no afterlife that anyone knows of. That is the fantasy of children and childish adults believing that death. meaning oblivion, can be overcome. Nothing could be further from the truth.No really. Although my most immediate 8 family members are liberal (stemming from my grandmother), the other 46 family members at Christmas Eve are all conservatives.
This morning I overheard two of my liberal family members.
"They don't even make 100k a year, and they think they are well off, haha. That's why the vote Republican, because they think they're well off."
When I hang out with my other relatives (conservatives) they (at most) will say this about the liberal pocket in family (AT MOST): "I wish they could see past the smoke and mirrors."
Really that's the worst thing my conservative relatives ever said.
Liberals always seem to need a boogey man, even if their own relatives.
I hactually had to intevene this Christmas morning and say:
"Listen I'm not well off, and I'm conservative. We don't vote for rewards and handouts, we vote for principle."
My extended family (husbands side) were mostly liberal. They never seemed to miss a chance to say something in front of me about Jesus in an attempt to offend me - which all stemmed from their being liberal Marxists - very educated people mind you - I pretended to not hear them and treated them with respect. All of them have died of cancer in the past several years and only two are left. They died young too. I couldn't get over how quickly they were gone. One still contacts us occasionally and the other person doesn't contact us at all. If you think about how miserable they are it will cause you to feel more empathy for them. After all, what have they got to look forward to after this life is over? Hell? You know it is so true - the Word says, What will it profit a man to gain the whole world only to lose his own soul. Life is so fleeting. They just do not understand how much so until it is too late.
Do not have sympathy for them? Why not? They wouldn't listen, thought anyone who believed in Jesus Christ and being born again was a joke, and left this earth rejecting Him. How could I not have sympathy for such people? How could I not have sympathy for you? I am very concerned about you, PMH. You need to realize there is life after this and your spirit is going to one of two places. It matters not whether you believe it! It is the truth! I still find it disturbing to think about those who have left this earth without Christ. VERY. I most definitely do not want you leaving earth without Him. Seriously. In the back of your mind, you have doubts about what you believe. I know that you do.
