It's darkly amusing to watch people fret over Kim Jong-un or Donald Trump possessing nuclear arsenals when it is a form of madness and sheer folly for *any* person or government to possess even one device.
Rationalizations about nuclear weapons—including all the ones we Americans live with and refuse to repent of—are a symptom of the mental illness that Christians call the fall.
Only a "god" who hates humanity and creation could inspire these abominations.
And humans partnered with the "god of this world"—with satan's hatred of the creation, his disgust at the image of God in humanity, and his contempt for the reality of God in human flesh—when we made them.
Those who designed the bombs had misgivings but they pocketed those thoughts and feelings for the sake of curiosity and the quest for superiority. They heard (as we all do) the whisper from the serpent ... "you will be like God."
Just because we *could* make them does not mean that we *should* have—much less that we should have tested or wielded them against cities of humans—but Americans (and humans) are more often than not moral pragmatists.
Not only are these devices indiscriminate by design, they destroy cities and geographies. When used en masse they level whole cultures and nations, entire continents and oceans. They are—why is this not clear to everyone—inherently evil.
The demons hate humanity because they are not incarnate; they envy the image of God in flesh and so seek to destroy us and the material creation. They goad our fallen imaginations and hearts into wars.
These devices will slay the image of God in the flesh and mar this wondrous world on a scale so much more diabolical than any previous technology of death. Hiroshima and Nagasaki are a mercy compared to the destructive capabilities of contemporary nuclear devices.
We don't disarm or seek the disarming of nations because we have not yet awakened—as a culture, as a nation, and as a race—to the reality that these things are unholy, a participation in darkness.
This is a collective human problem—not an American or North Korean or Russian or Chinese problem.
And no one is serious about disarmament because we have also yet to face our collective need to repent for *making* them in the first place. It was wrong to cross that boundary. We ate from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
The human race is in collective denial that these weapons can exist and not be used again. It does not take a forecaster to predict their future employment, intentional or accidental. It is only a matter of time.
I hope I am wrong about this but it may take the detonation of one of these dark idolatrous engines in one or more of our cities for us to be covered in enough human and civilizational ashes to see the evil for what it is.
