E plurimis fragmentis, unum

In spite of everything you wish for this great country of ours, where huge (if sometimes disproportionate) doses of freedom, prosperity, and biblical morality once shaped a society, maybe the very best thing now is simply to let the United States hurry toward the smashup that seems so imminent. Maybe, as Israel discovered time and time again, America needs devastation far more than it needs restoration.
For God's idea of wholeness is so very different from ours.
