Remarkably prophetic. Illumines a whole new side of "making the world safe for democracy," doesn't it?

Very much so.

It never fails to amaze me to trace the deliberate creation of nations via revolutions (1700's - 1900's). I think you might agree that we, in this time, are now seeing these very nations being deliberately taken down to give rise to this "supreme power".

The later action is all but accomplished in the minds of men, since this is where the idea of sovereignty resides.

I actually went to a "patriotic music" concert at a Methodist church where the choir hapred out a song with a chorus, "Citizens of the world, we are one!"

I almost threw up, and had a good long talk with my daughters about it afterward. I probably should have just left in protest.

I'm not an America-worshipper ("U.S.A., love it or get the hell out of our way!" mentality), but I do think local self-government is a God-given right that is under a serious threat.

World government, you see, would be good for business.

Very true!
I personally think that self government is the way and it has to start with the individual treating other individuals the way they want to be treated.

I think thats the best start.

Completely agreed. A vacuum of personal responsibility is the proverbial crap to the dung fly of Tyranny.
