It is no coincidence that our generation suffers under a burden of plagiarizing journalists, confiscatory government, cooked scientific research, and so on. We have lost our understanding of the difference between meum and tuum, and this is because we are listening to the serpent instead of to God. The serpent is the father of liars, which also makes him the father of thieves.

“When they lie, they speak their native language.”
This means that when rulers are ungodly, we should expect them to be like their father, the devil, who is the father of liars (John 8:44). When they lie, they speak their native language. Bitterness and cursing are under their tongue, but of course never at the press conference.
