On "Throwing Your Vote Away"

“Well done my good and faithful servant” is all I want.

peace to you

 

The reward I want is to know I did what God wanted me to do.

If I can achieve that, everything else will be just what God wants it to be.

 

I don’t think much of Carter, but let me be the first to say God is a lot smarter than me.

He can save whom He pleases to save—I won’t complain.

And if the Lord tells me in Heaven, “Carter was ten times the Christian you were”, I will say, “Yes Sir, Lord!”

But right now I’m on earth, and with my limited knowledge, I’ve never thought highly of him. All I know is all I know. Neither you nor I know it all. We just do the best we can.

 

And there was silence in the beautiful gardens of Heaven as the light of God shined on every leaf and blade of grass. The flowers sang and the sky danced. And then God spoke through the light:
"I have a very special reward for the ones who went to the voting booth and voted their conscience for the Libertarians and Independents. You did not throw your votes away. You were practicing for your eternal home. We also have a two party system here... There is Good and there is Evil. Good luck getting enough people to pull the lever for the Third Heaven."

 

Crickets... Definitely not gonna make it as a comedian!

 

I have voted in every presidential election since 1972. I have never voted for a Dem. But, I have voted for a Rep, Libertarian, or American Ind. Not that I thought the last two had a chance of winning. I remembered that in the 1890s the Populist Party platform was coopted by the Ds and Rs.
