Does a Lose of Liberty Cause Stupidity?
Most of us could get along better with much less government than we have; there are others though who seem to require lifelong shepherding from prenatal care to the electric chair. It makes no sense to talk of self-government to a man that cannot even govern his own behavior.” – Paul Kirchner
Government intervention in our lives is making us stupid!! Even safety regulations reduce the need for us to think.
Every lose of liberty contributes to the de-evolution of the human species if you believe in that, every lose of liberty removes a God allowed or provided opportunities for us to grow, if the government removes those opportunities we can’t grow.
Consider this, if a kids learns and grows smarter, physically stronger, more adept and more responsible for his actions when he… say… goes too high on the monkey bars and falls and tries again and again until he is successful. What happens when the school removes the monkey bars or lowers them or places mats under them, growth opportunities are hijacked and learning is hampered. If the Lords purpose is for mankind to grow and learn by way of experience and man effectively removes the easy, least injurious ways for learning, what alternative is there for the Lord but to up the ante, allowing or causing the learning to be accomplished at a more dangerous and injurious level, possibly involving more people and innocent by standards; just a thought.
For those that do not believe in divine intervention, we just get stupider because we have fewer learning opportunities and less motivation to learn because Government is the Almighty caretaker and protector. It sort of reminds me of an old movie “Idiocracy”
As government takes over the role of supreme provider and protector, what reason is there for a God, maybe governments reverse engineering process has succeeded, and they have assumed the role. Government has to destroy God …so government can become God
