Link: Ontario seniors 'living in fear' of COVID-19 feel forgotten in vaccine rollout plan | CBC News
This selfish generation of which I, at 64, am at the tale-end of is stealing the future from the current one. They have been a narcissistic, greedy and selfish generation all their lives. The children of the greatest generation are a bunch of cowardly, godless pagans. It almost makes one wonder if this is not just punishment.
This is what a life without Christ is like.
This is what you must remember.
Psalm 90/91
Assurance of God’s Protection
You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
Because you have made the Lord your refuge.
the Most High your dwelling-place,
no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.You will tread on the lion and the adder,the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.
Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.

I think this is a generation that ended up having a very good life, by and large. They enjoyed postwar economic prosperity, job security and secure pensions. Tragically, most seem to trust their newscasters and the latter's preposterous scripted narratives rather than God; they fail to use their God-given power of reason to seek out and discern the truth from more reliable sources. I fear that most of them have succumbed to the comforts of this age, and for these individuals, the truth in Scripture and Tradition has subtly been supplanted by the propaganda of 24 hour scripted so-called "news", newspaper rhetoric and the blatant lies of politicians beholden to anti-life ideologies, globalist forces and the ungodly principalities which inform and guide them. They seem to me to have become terribly deceived, bewitched, and like frightened lost sheep.
When the truth of this hugely exaggerated and easily presentable crisis emerges, many will be devastated at having been deceived; then it will dawn on them that they consented to this deception and its enslavement of their minds, hearts and spirits. Perhaps this will be a doorway to repentance for the idolatry of embracing the misleading messages of preposterous public announcements by politicians and medical officers, believing in the necessity of their calls for mandated destruction of lives through social isolation and forced economic devastation, rather than the truth that is made clear in the light of faith. Most Christians today live like slaves rather than daughters and sons of God that Christ died and rose to make them - sharing in "every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places."(Eph 1,3)
I think Romans 8 should be required reading for all of them.

Sadly, I'm afraid that rather than admit that they have been had, the people of this generation will double-down on the lies that they have uncritically, and glutinously, swallowed. Pride doesn't allow the admission of guilt, or even errors in judgement. It's an insatiable beast carrying generations of souls on its back down into the pit. These souls, riding the beast willfully, look down from their perch at the humble as if they are to be pitied.
May I be among the humble, O Lord! May the proud be brought low, so that they may be saved. Save us from the horn of the unicorn (Ps. 22).
And where Pride fails in its purpose, fear rushes in to stay true repentance. At least, that's how it seems to me.
There was a time in the beginning when you could trust what came from the big box in the living room. Probably died around time of Eisenhower, Cronkite, but the boomers were hooked, brainwashed and deceived all their lives.
Alas. Cronkite was a one-worlder and a socialist.
