We are tempted every day of life, some by food, material things, or other pleasures. Even as far back as Biblical times, mankind was given a set of rules with stipulations decreeing that we were not to fall prey to the evils of temptation.

"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." - Ecclesiastes 3:1

Anti-democratic authoritarianism is on the rise–both around the world and here at home. Sometimes it is easier to recognize overseas.
