What does it profit a man if he gains his soul but loses the whole world?

Read that again. Yes. This is the moral charge of our time.

Anything other than capitulation to the rulers of the world is moral depravity.

Are you ready to watch your children starve, your parents denied medication, your family lay desolate, all because you refuse to bow to a foreign god?

How immoral! 

Killer of your own people. Purveyor of poverty. 

Denier of generational destinies. Heathen.

What does it profit a man if he gains his soul but loses the whole world?

Then the Devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in all their greatness. All this I will give you,” the Devil said, “if you kneel down and worship me.” Then he answered, “Go away, Satan!”

Then the bombs began to rain. And the sanctions tightened. 

Food shortages. Fuel shortages. Life shortages. 

And the intellectuals dissected. And the young protested. And they said we have the worst leaders ever. Give us freedom they chanted. Release us into the clutches of the foreigners. We want to lose our souls, so that we may live by bread. For the pursuit of bread, and milk and honey, is the greatest moral pursuit of all time.
