I can't stand this man's politics... In fact, I hate his politics on a good many levels, and yet (intentional or not [and I'm thinking 'not']) This hopeful song makes me long for the time, not many month from now, when the SONSHINE will at long last arrive. The world will not say 'hello' at first. Half the world's population will be gone and there will be lot's of wide open spaces to drive our El Caminos though sonshine-filled days, soaking up the love and light of Him who the world hated so deeply. And for what? Are they going to save the world? Their every action states otherwise.
What do they hope to accomplish by warring against Jesus, the coming King? Do they think they can defeat God? Apparently they do, and will think He can't be physically and spiritually rebuffed. In the end they will be rebuffed. This is why I'm actually enjoying this song. Bruce Springsteen was gifted with music, and the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. [Romans 11:29] They're never going to see the Sonshine. But you can... Belief is a mighty strong force of faith. Believe... That's all you need do... Believe.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4

Your First Amendment right to free speech is a privilege and comes with a measure of responsibility. You have the right to exercise that responsibility here but we reserve the right to inform you when you've used that right irresponsibly.
We are benevolent dictators in this regard. Enjoy.
