Barb, I...Leah, thanks for the book recommendation!<br /><br />Barb, I'm confused. I don't know what movement or cause you're referring to or what Steve Jobs has to do with my blog post.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04817680463922038375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-84106854717595222242011-10-22T19:49:58.776-05:002011-10-22T19:49:58.776-05:00There's no better spokesman for your movement ...There's no better spokesman for your movement than someone who can't speak for himself.

I have be...Cheryl, I think you're spot on too.<br /><br />I have been reading "The Politics of Guilt and Pity" by John Rousas Rushdoony again, and it is so telling of exactly what is going on in our country today. I just put up a small quote from the book on my blog, but there is sooooo much there.<br /><br />The "politics of guilt" works in part just how you said...<br /><br /><i>...if they acknowledge that things are getting better they will lose their purpose and identity</i><br /><br />Being a "victim" and gaining power by putting guilt out on your "victimizers" is a defining identity for people who must continue to justify themselves through their victimization status, lest they be forced to look at their own "sin".<br /><br />Anyway, I think you would like the book. :)Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02069794229090921826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-82059881861757568212011-10-22T09:27:19.309-05:002011-10-22T09:27:19.309-05:00Wow That is deep.
