A well spoken leader of Germany... who could it be?

Yesterday, President Barack Obama spoke at a Holocaust museum on the injustice of that terrible time in Germany’s history. He blamed it on “escape goating”, stating that the justification allowed cruelty to spread. I do believe he is partially right. People do things that they wouldn’t normally do when they are indoctrinated with information that is manipulated for an evil cause. Germany is a perfect example for the consequences of a society controlled by a well-spoken leader; a leader who spoke of change. He promised to lead the German people out of a worldwide depression and help to rebuild after a devastating World War I. The German people did not elect him hoping to eradicate the Jewish people. They elected him because they were lead to believe his socialistic philosophy was the solution for their country’s problems.
Imagine the consequences of a leader, supported by the media, who is able to inspire such passion in his people to lead the country in a witch-hunt for Jews.
Without correlating this leader to our current administration, the lesson to be learned is that quiet obedience is not the answer. Relativism has created a society, which has no absolute right or wrong. How can I say don’t murder when according to relativism it may be ok for someone else? With the removal of God, our natural laws do not exist with any absolute authority. And, though people claim to believe in an ultimate creator, most American’s only know what they have been taught in school.
There are facts. These facts can be proven true with similar historical events. Throughout history, countries and empires have risen and peaked with leaders who promised to create a new society. His people believe in the hope of peace and utopia and receive an unstable government in return. Obama should feel the weight of this country on his shoulders. Every move he makes will alter this country drastically if he is not careful.
The chains of events have been in the working. Countries across the world have been testing socialistic programs providing to the under privileged and limiting their entrepreneurial spirits. The progress has been slowed in America thanks to our liberties, but as those are stripped away, we will be lead to believe it is for the greater good.
How has this “escape goating” affected this nation negatively? No one wants to take responsibility. No one wants to educate themselves. In order to the fix the problem, our society needs to take responsibility for their actions. The truth is we are all to blame. Otherwise, we may be the collection of people who are eliminated for being different.
