It matters how we view things, inclusive of how we view the politics of our lives ...how it is that we are governed, and what governs our thoughts.
For some, it does not matter ...but the way we think on one issue may have much to do with formulating how we think on various other issues. I never believed that we should aspire to reasoning that tells us that if one person does something we say we disagree with, then that justifies us being able to get away with it also. I try to let God formulate my beliefs ...not hiding or getting away with.
In the beginning, God governed how things were to be ...first directly, then through 'judges' and prophets, until the people requested 'kings'.
Jesus came to direct truth ...and we have the Word. It should not be that difficult to determine who we should seek to guide our lives.
And when we sin ...it's like trying to see our own way to refuge in a blinding dust storm. We just get more lost, unless we have someone guide us out ...and it is wisdom to choose the right One.
