    I’m not following what your line of questioning is supposed to be asking or proving in this thread.

    Everything you do, at home or work, is shaped by political decisions that people have made in your name, whether or not you want to be directly involved in the making of those decisions is up to you, but you’re still part of the political system by using it and benefiting from it and paying your taxes.

      Everything you do, at home or work, is shaped by God. God made you, whether or not you want to be directly involved in the making up of his world is up to you, but you’re still part of the God by using it and benefiting form his generosity and existence.

      my line of questioning is to point out the absurdities of what you are saying that derive from such a vastly over generalized as to be totally pointless and any generally broad concept can be used. God, nature, the Force, etc.

      You seem to think politics is anything and everything, sort of like how religious people see God, or natural spiritualist see nature. You are imposing a generalized belief structure on everyone, without realizing a lot of people just don’t believe in what you believe in. And you deem anyone agree with your belief structure as heretical and ignorant.

      I don’t believe anyone does anything ‘in my name’. But I don’t see myself as part of some grand unified force you seem to believe in and call ‘politics’. I’m only a part of the systems I choose to be a part of, by my own desires. I vote for certain things, support certain things, and not others. It’s all very specific to me and sometimes I don’t have any views or concerns on the topic because it has no impact on me…
