God...Family...Country

In that order...because God is constant, the true measure of a man or woman is how they love and guide their families, and Country last since even the best of governments can become corrupt and brutal.  I love my country...but it is not worthy of unquestioning devotion or cult worship.

For me, God and Family are the same thing. Country? Well, that's a different thing. Its bearing relies on how other people place their priorities, thus it goes thissaway sometimes and thattaway other times.

Family then country. Put God in whereever if you feel the need.
Unquestioning devotion to anything is foolish but you never abandon your family, or country. If they're doing wrong in your eyes fight to change that but never turn your back to and walk away from either of them.
