I would venture to suggest, that
every nation aspires to achieve a political 'environment', which will [within its own borders]
facilitate political stability, peace, and prosperity for its citizens.
Few come close.aspire = = direct one’s hopes or ambitions towards achieving something.Any nation which has achieved a modicum of political stability, peace, and prosperity,
which then, chooses [in a dangerous world, full of
LAWLESS individuals] to [in effect] open its borders, will soon;
1/
lose its current national identity,
and,
2/ lose the political stability and the peace which facilitates its national prosperity.
.
Nations like Australia, and the U.S.A. are, imo, morphing into
sh it hole nations.
PROPOSITION;It is
the character of the people of any nation, which defines the character [and quality,
and the reputation] of that nation.
Logically,
sh it hole nations, are so, because of the particular character and cultural mores, of the people who inhabit those sh it hole nations.
And the same principle applies, with the particular character and cultural mores, of the people who inhabit nations where there is political stability, peace, and prosperity.
Again, ....it is the character of the people of a nation, which defines the character [and quality, and the reputation] of a nation.Recognising and
valuing [i.e.
appreciating] that difference [between
different things and
different people], is called
'discrimination'.
Dictionary;
discrimination = =
1 the action of discriminating against people.
2 recognition and understanding of the difference between one thing and another. good judgement or taste.Dictionary;
discriminating = = having or showing good taste or judgement..

We merely corrupt that which is precious.....

Matthew 13:47
Again,
the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

Deuteronomy 8:2
And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.
Luke 12:31
But rather seek ye
the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.
32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
2 Corinthians 6:16
And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Reality.
It is what we 'see'.
It is what we perceive.
And it will be our reward.
Psalms 28:4
Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
