Another anarchist recently got killed "peacefully protesting." This one had a pistol.
I don't think anyone supports people being killed by authorities.
I also think that everyone supports citizen's right to protest. There's nothing wrong with that. But it seems so ironic to use the laws of a nation to protest the very law that makes it a nation: a border.
Without a border, what's a nation?
Anarchists are true believers, I'll give them that. They hate law and order so much they're willing to die for it. That's some serious devotion.
I think we all are subject to the biases of perception. But my perception is fueled by the question: How is the United States a better and safer place to live with millions of illegal criminals residing within it's borders?
Every other country on the planet has borders, with laws to the enforce them. That's the world we live in. Someday that might change, but for now the nation-state is the way of the world.
I recently wrote a philosophical piece titled Is The Search for Meaning Meaningless? The premise can be assumed from the title.
These anarchists, who are mostly paid agent provocateurs, don't have any meaning in their life. Most of us can relate. The status quo is efficient at dulling the soul. This is why we need God.
Our desire for meaning is God's way of calling his sheep.
John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
These poor anarchists are mostly overweight, unattractive, single white females and homosexual men.
They have no meaning in their lives. And they seek to fill that void by taking on the struggles of the oppressed. On the surface, this is a noble cause. They are doing what they believe is right, while consequently adding meaning to their life.
In my piece on meaning, I briefly discussed the philosophy of Camus:
Camus concluded that struggle itself providing the meaning to live. That we should accept that life is meaningless and revolt against it.
So our meaning becomes: struggle until you die.
Sadly, our societies have devolved to the point that the youth want to lay down their lives protesting the rule of law.
These women should be at home, married with children. Smiling and happy. Sad and struggling. Living life as God meant it to be lived.
These homosexual men should be married. Repenting. Working. Struggling to provide. Being a positive example for his children.
It's easy to be divisive, and look at people and pass judgement.
These anarchists are sad and lonely, desperately looking for a reason to keep on living. Looking for meaning in their life.
They've turned their backs on God.
It's not my place to speak for the Lord. But maybe God has reciprocated.
Not everyone will be saved. In fact, most won't be:
Matthew 22:14: For many are invited, but few are chosen.
We don't choose God; God chooses us:
John 15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you...
It's not a coincidence that most of these anarchists are coincidentalists. They don't believe in God. In fact, most hate God:
John 15:18–19 If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.
Scripture has all the answers you're looking for:
Matthew 7:7–8 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
Don't think for a second that we aren't in the midst of a spiritual war. Satan has an immense legion of minions.
Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Put on the armor of God:
Ephesians 6:11 & 13 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes... so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground.
May God have mercy on your soul.
