complexity.

As I listen to the economic stimulus ideas being put forward by both sides of the aisle, I am amazed.  Sometimes the amazement comes from the obscene amount of money that the government wants to spend, other times I am astonished by the lack of sympathy that people can exhibit.  But either idea, one thing is for certain, their is great complexity to what is being proposed.  The second you make one change, it starts the process of changing ten others, and if you do not look down the line, your actions can have totally unintended consequences.  Life is always complicated and complex and I am thankful that I can be part of a community that recognizes the complexity of life.  More so, I am thankful that Christianity (at least Biblical Christianity) addresses the complexity of life.   

I wish life wasn't as complex as it is, but at least I don't have to decide how to spend 800 billion dollars.
