No mental laziness allowed!

SHOW NOTES

Don’t Care

No doubt you’ve heard the news already of the monster who shot up a grocery store two days ago
On this podcast, we will refuse to name mass murderers since most of them are motivated by notoriety. We refuse to give it to him.
What shouldn’t you care about today? You shouldn’t care about what color his skin is, neither should you care about the name he was given at birth
If you want to stay sane in this generation, turn off the talking heads of cable news. 
I recommend listening to news, rather than watching or reading so that your view of reality won’t be biased by the images that are designed to keep you glued to a screen
BTW- This is why I love podcasts
This article from Ashe Schow at the Daily Wire illustrates exactly why you should never jump to conclusions about people without knowing the details
As soon as a shooting was reported at a Boulder, Colorado, grocery store, members of the media and activists rushed to insist the shooter must be white and, specifically, a “white supremacist,” before his identity was even released.
When news outlets reported that the suspect had been apprehended, numerous verified Twitter accounts suggested the shooter must be white, as any other race, some claimed, would have been shot at the scene. The suspected shooter was shot at the scene, but in the leg, and was taken into custody. DeadSpin editor Julie DiCaro and USA Today editor Hemal Jhaveri insisted in a conversation that the shooter was a “white man,” with Jhaveri referring to him as “an angry white man.”
Amy Siskind, a feminist activist, said the shooter was “almost certainly a white man” because he was apprehended. Once she learned the race of the suspect, however, she pivoted to suggesting people mourn the victims and not focus on the identity of the killer. Author Meena Harris, niece of Vice President Kamala Harris, posted then deleted a tweet declaring, “Violent white men are the greatest terrorist threat to our country.”
The left exposes it’s own biases in these obviously racist reactionary tweets
They are attempting to paint their own view of the world onto a situation that they know nothing about
My point today is that we can all be guilty of doing the same thing
We should NEVER care about the skin color, name, hair style Facebook page, words spoken of a monster. 
Some people did the exact same thing when it was revealed that the shooter had a muslim name, making all kinds of assumptions before knowing anything.
Why?
Because 
There is only one thing to care about when it comes to judging other people: their actions!
This is the best way to judge others, by what they actually do.
Care

What you need to care about on a day like today is how our culture has come to a place where two mass shootings can happen in less than a week and we barely yawn.
We are living in a sick culture that blames the tool of massacre, rather than the sickness of what causes the finger to pull the trigger.
What is common among 90% of mass killers?
They are mostly fatherless unmarried men
Instead of immediately blaming white supremacy, maybe we should be talking about broken homes and failing marriages.
These listless, purposeless young men, without the challenge of marriage and family flounder into dangerous mental instability
We should be passing federal laws to treat  mental illness, not grabbing guns.
Instead of attacking law-biding citizens’ rights to protect themselves, maybe we should incentivize young at-risk men to get jobs, get married and have children!
Maybe, even more, we should encourage spiritual renewal and revival to deal with the true issue, the evil of men’s hearts
'“The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?' Jeremiah 17:9 

This is why we know that the only thing that can transform the human heart is not a law passed by congress, a politician elected to office, or a check sent out to the masses. These solutions will never address the spiritual problems that caused them. What we truly need is spiritual fix for spiritual problems.

'Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. ' II Corinthians 5:17 

As we approach Easter, let us remember who truly changes hearts and minds. Let those of us who are believers get serious about our call to reach the lost and broken with the Good News of the Gospel. So that we can do our part to prevent heart-breaking tragedies like this in the future.

This is why we should care, because by doing our part to plant the seeds of god’s word in the hearts of others, we are doing our part to reach the desperate souls of our generation.

So shine on, happy warriors!
