Human Incompetence

God has always had to deal with human incompetence, and He overrules it in order to arrive at His own goal, to realize the destiny He purposes for humanity. Where have we as a nation ever arrived as the result of our own competence, tell me? We have arrived at wonderful places of power, and influence, and responsibility... If we will but read our history aright, we shall find it to be a story of the overruling of incompetence by God; and that it is this that has brought us to the position of power and influence we have occupied in the world, and shall still occupy if our feet are but turned back to the way of His commandments, and our heart becomes fixed, trusting in the Lord.

--G. Campbell Morgan, The Fixed Heart in the Day of Frightfulness

Socialism/Marxism/Communism is human incompetence overruling God, which is why it always fails.
