VOTING-DEMOCRACY

Voting and Democracy

Deadlier than bullets ballots become if the interests of the few and not of the many serve!

My dearest Eve, God expects from us to do our part! What meaning the vote has if we do not vote and leave that to our Lord? How could He do things if we do not help? We are His agents! Thank you!
