Definition of selfishness (Merriam-Webster)
: the quality or state of being selfish: a concern for one’s own welfare or advantage at the expense of or in disregard of others : excessive interest in oneself
One way to try to understand these last almost 2 years is to think about how selfish society has become. This seems to have started by design as we were slowly made to believe that marriage and an intact family was not necessary; and that going to Church or sharing in a religion was not necessary. The development of technology with it’s addictive programming further lead to the focus turning towards oneself and away from family and community.
Everyone wants to take the easy way out and to do the least amount of work to maintain a certain lifestyle. There is no thought to the well being of one’s spouse or child when making decisions; it becomes what will make my life easier, not how might this decision effect my loved ones? From the smallest decision of putting down your cell phone during dinner to the bigger decision of shoving a poorly vetted gene therapy shot into your child- it comes down to how much inconvenience will I put up with?
The powers that be spin it as ‘do it to protect others’ so that it seems like you are doing a great thing. The truth is that you ‘did it’ to make life easier for yourself. Wear that mask to go to that certain store instead of finding a store where you could decide. Getting a jab because you wanted to go to that college or be able to play in that game and not get quarantined instead of rethinking your educational path or that high school sports is not the hill to die on.
The science literally shows that masks do not prevent or control viral infections and that the gene therapy shot does not prevent infection or illness/hospitalization and in fact are causing a vast array of disease and death. Society’s selfishness is causing people to die or become disabled, both physically and mentally.
It is selfish to force (by coercion, guilt, parental control or law) others to do comply with misguided and evil mandates in order to get yourself ‘back to normal’. If anyone took time to research and investigate the science you would notice all this forced compliance is to gain control of you- for ‘their’ own selfish motives. We have free will from God and we still live in a free Country, stop thinking of yourself and do the right thing, not the most convenient.
