As many Americans, and likely many non-Americans as well know, today is the inauguration of Joe Biden as the president of the United States.  Although too many people in America continue to insist that Biden didn't really win the election, that his "forces" stole the election from the incumbent, happily for the country, every single American court to which they have appealed has dismissed their objections over a profound lack of evidence.

     Where does America go from here?  More to the point, where do the, again, too many evangelical Christians who have chosen to cast their lot with the conspiracy theorists and others who continue to promote these specious claims?  I'm not sure, really, I'm just not sure.  While I believe in the fact of God as much as they, I continue to be deeply puzzled by such epistemological schizophrenia:  whatever are they thinking?

     Or does faith as trust in God in the end hinge on no more than one's political leanings and convictions?
