When a person fails to act in good faith, that person is breaking his or her fiduciary duty, word, honor and the bond of trust.  


And when the people we trust fail to act in good faith and lie, cheat, coerce, deceive, defraud and abuse power for selfish gains, we become misled.


There is no reason for law abiding and God fearing people to question people they should trust.  


Should our ministers and priests not speak the truth, separate church from state, render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and unto the Lord what is the Lord's* and follow the commandments of Christ to love the Lord and our neighbors as self**?


And when we turn on our favorite news channel, should the news not report the facts of the day?  


The unfortunate and tragic problem with being misled is that it inevitably moves people away from everything we should be believing.


The truth becomes convoluted in lies, friendlies become bogies, and salvation becomes damnation as forgiveness is used inappropriately as a means to bypass redemption altogether in the accepting of sins and sinful practices.


What to do when the news media and leaders that should adhere to their fiduciary responsibility and duty to act in good faith, defend the Constitution, their Oath of Office and Christianity do not and trust, truth and honor are breached?  


What would Jesus do?  


Follow blindly Judas demands to follow Caesar?


Believe everything the corrupt and cowards do and say without regard to honoring their duty of care and their duty to act in good faith?
