John G, I give my word that what I will write is not meant as an indictment of anyone, least of all you.  It merely happens that you've brought a topic of very recent interest to me.

I've noticed there are people posting here who listen to, or read, some of the same men I have in the past, or still do, e.g., Pastor Mike Hoggard, who is exempt from what I will set forth, so I'm comfortable naming him, a man striving to be true to God's Word.  :)

My perspective is the world has become a very confusing environment; God is not the author of confusion.  I'm not the poster child for common sense, yet too often I find myself unable to make good sense of what I see or hear.

In a jarring moment, I counted six men to whom I've avidly listened, and who -- among other things -- proffer information from inside sources: alphabet agencies, law enforcement, active military, et al.  These same six men have spoken of there being no private communication (electronic or phone) in the U.S. now. 

Poser:  Why do the inside sources supplying (via phone or email) writers and broadcasters what is to be considered highly sensitive information still have -- at best -- a job inside these government entities?  And they do.  They continue leaking, and that to men who are known by, and purportedly greatly angering, the powers that be.  Simply put, if I was working for a government entity, I would know better than to telephone, or email, sensitive or condemning information to anyone, much less to someone the government is watching.  (I'm deservedly humbled by how long it took me to realize this.)

I'm not condemning anyone.  I only say there seems to be deception somewhere along the pike.  I don't know at what point, and I won't guess.    So I just pray for them all and no longer read, or listen, where this anomaly is present.  If anyone can make this go away, I'd be very eager to be persuaded to another perspective.   - Vickie A
