Voting

Voting in a political election seems to me to be just like voting on a call in a nite hunt. Some people tend to vote on what is best for them and not always what they truly believe in. Just look at the way hunters vote to score a tree. First look at how many different interpretations there are as to what actually constitutes a circle, slick or plus tree. You will find conservatitive and liberal interpretations. Then you have liberals who will vote to minus a tree even though they think that it could be circled because their dog isn't there. You have all of your "rules" and different interpretations of them depending on whether your judge is a strict or moderate consevative or a liberal. You can see all sorts of comparisons in a nite hunt if you look. Some handlers will even "campaign" for a particular vote. Some will even resort to negative campaigning or name calling. And sometimes you will have a spectator who will lobby for a certain vote. And I have heard that sometimes money can even change hands.

it's true, we live in a cursed world and we are all fallen, sinful men. What's amazing is that we manage to get any good thing done.
