I can certainly appreciate and agree to that sentiment - especially as I have awakened over the past several years to the notion of the Deep State and their diabolic agenda...
That being said.... Please clarify, for my understanding, which part of my response do you 'disagree' with?...
I try my best to be an agreeable person and continue to strive to be a good Christian and more Christ-like... So if I wronged you or offended you in any way with my comments please do forgive me - that most certainly was not my intention... But I am always willing to learn how I might better articulate myself - as it is not my intent to be disagreeable - especially with my fellow Christians...

Oh... Okay... Ya... That rabbit hole runs deep...
Now I can certainly acknowledge where you are coming from...
I can certainly see the basis for that premise...
Unfortunately, that perspective, rationalization and logic would certainly lead to lots of people being wrongly accused and judged for things that were not within their control nor understanding...
I most certainly respect your opinion and can now appreciate where you are coming from - thank you for sharing...
Have you ever heard of the Fallacies of Logic? I only ask - as I only hope to be helpful with the growing trend that I am seeing..
Hmmm... I noticed upon checking out your profile that you both give and receive a lot of 'disagreeable' responses...
It was nice interacting with you and learning more about you... I do wish you the best - God Bless...
