Arthur Schopenhauer, Ph.D., Philosopher
All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed; Second, it is violently opposed; Third, it is accepted as self-evident.
“Is it because Marcus collects taxpayer funds to promote destructive, long-discredited (sic) “ex-gay” reparation therapy for homosexuals? How about because the clinic he owns is co-owned by Michele?

“[…] although the antigovernment “patriot,” or militia, movement did wane in the late 1990s and early 2000s, it has come roaring back, from 149 groups in 2008 to 824 in 2010, even as the number of hate groups reached more than 1,000 for the first time since the Southern Poverty Law Center began counting them in the 1980s.”

“The Descent of the Modernists”
By E. J. Pace, 1922

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?
