This morning Robert Novak, a well-known columnist, who wrote for the late Sun-Times and spearheaded two innovative news/talk shows on CNN passed away. His advise I will remember the longest was this, 'Always love your country - but never trust your government. In other words remember that a government that has too much power, can not only give you everything but take everything away also.'
I agree with Novak's sentiments completely. It always amazes me that some people feel compelled to "worship" the government. Nothing ever changes, it seems. Like the Israelites, we wish to sacrifice our God given freedom and clamor for a King to be appointed over us.
