In a world in which you begin with the mantra "religion and politics don't mix, Christianity has nothing to say outside of church buildings", it's not long before people who think they're serious, behave like they're serious, and everybody treats seriously... can't be distinguished from people that anyone outside of the bubble would assume was an escapee from an asylum.

When you have modern Western politicians, what exactly is the point of an April Fools' Day?

Psalm 14:1 - "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.'"

In God's mercy, there's an antidote to being at war with reality, at war with ourselves, at war with what God made us. God can remake us through Jesus Christ. The desire to rebel against what he's made us can be replaced with a willingness to embrace it, and submit to it, in joyful obedience to him. However messed up we are inside - there's another solution to demanding that the world re-organise itself around our mess. There's a Saviour who can put us right again.
