The problem in our societies is that the political power is trying to eradicate and then replace the spiritual power & have an "all in one" grip on our lives.
Can't work, won't work, will lead to chaos faster than we realise.
Political power has to answer to something higher.

I will not ignore your previous post! I suspect you were less drunk than in the following post, making the previous post slightly more valid. This points to the idea of our constitutionally limited form of government... that our federal government has enumerated powers granted by the people; it is not the source of power. Our current government's perspective is that the Constitution should not be a restriction on their action and they do what they can get away with in that respect.
We're now in an inevitable decline towards Statism and loss of individual freedoms, with a difficult path ahead whether we regain or lose some of the promise of the past.

Hmmm?
When the "highest power" is yourself and no other?
There ain't much to look forward to....other'n regret.
Just sayin'

No one here is denying a 'higher power' or 'natural law' or whatever you want to call it.
