Does God support the Right or the Left?

Problem. Those who do seek the truth are ridiculed and demonized. Case in point see the thread entitled "Is she a traitor". Today if you do not hold to the "mainstream consensus" which is wholly untrue then you are branded an extremist and danger to your country. Matters not if you are a rightie or a leftie.
The truth is the whole left vs right thing is a false paradigm therefore it is a lie and it's only purpose is to keep us divided. The truth is there but you'll never see it being so wrapped up in such a false paradigm as rightie vs leftie. If we were really seeking the truth as Christians should then we would reject all wrong doing and evil instead of rationalizing it away when it's "our side" who commits it and we would hold those who ignore the law and overstep their lawful authority accountable in every case.
Yet we do not. We rabidly defend "our" own criminals and evildoers while we try to place all the blame on the other side's criminals and evildoers. Somehow I doubt God supports any of that. But, like I say if your are so wrapped up in the false rightie vs leftie paradigm you cannot even see this. God is on the side of light and truth, not some political party or ideal who deals in deceit and darkness to keep the masses under strict control and paying unconstitutional (unlawful) taxes on time like "good citizens" should.

A most liberal interpretation of Ecc. 10:2 is implied considering the OP title. :laugh:

The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of knowledge: [but] fools despise wisdom and instruction.
So God supports those who seek wisdom as they are those who are wise.
