So, they've been showing "V for Vendetta" constantly on FX. Heather and I rented it not soon after it came out and it was (and still is) a biting social commentary. However, upon watching it a second time I am reminded of how eerily close we came to allowing this country to become the UK that is portrayed in the film. Thankfully, I don't think we're THAT stupid in this country as to allow a nutbag zealot to take over and force his "religion" (not faith, not Christianity, just a cover really, a bastardization of Jesus' intent for the church that could be used to attain absolute power.) That in and of itself is disgusting...revolting even.
This second watching gives me pause to thank the Lord our Father for His protection over us. No matter how badly anyone wanted to take power in this country only the Lord grants it and he takes it at His will. His will reigns....now if we could only teach that to our "public servants".
