As many of you who live here know,
this used to be America. Now? Not so much. America’s precipitous moral decline
started about the time “Google it” became a common phrase. Coincidence? Maybe.
Maybe not.
In any case, in recent years, one can
get kicked out of school for wearing a hat stating “Make America Great Again.” That seems
painfully ironic. But it is not just America that has gone mad. Much of the
Western world has, too. Case in point: a Serbian judo champion named Nemanja
Majdov was recently suspended for five months by the International
Judo Federation (IJF)…for making the sign of the cross while taking part in
this year’s Paris Olympic Games. The organization apparently has a rule against
an athlete making “a clear religious sign when entering the field of play.”
But back to what used to be America.
According to a report in the Washington Examiner, 75-year-old Paulette Harlow
was recently sentenced-- by Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly-- to two years in
prison for praying outside of a Washington, D.C.
abortion clinic four years ago. Praying?! Just another vicious Christian
terrorist! She’s lucky she didn’t get life in prison! Well, actually, maybe she
did. But she deserves it, and she’s probably a “nationalist,” too! Praying?!
Praying?! The nerve! I mean, the “free speech” thing can only go so far,
right?! Surely it doesn’t protect praying, silently or otherwise!
Conversely, the Minnesota Abortion
Action Committee (MNAAC) is selling hoodies and t-shirts adorned with the
words “The Christian Right Is Wrong” and sporting a picture of a burning building labeled “Anti-Abortion Center.” The
burning building appears to be a First Care pregnancy clinic, a Minnesota-based
clinic that provides free support to pregnant mothers. But then again, it’s
Minneapolis, so it could be any one of many burning buildings. I’m sure they’re
selling like hotcakes. I’d bet money that Tampon Timmy Walz’ wife Gwen owns a
couple of them.
Publicly acknowledging one’s desire to
see America made great again is unacceptable in some parts of the fruited plain
nowadays. Making the sign of the cross or praying in the vicinity of an
abortion mill might get you suspended or arrested.
Selling anti-Christian apparel
depicting burning pregnancy centers—to raise money to support killing babies in
the womb? No problem! That is protected.
In fact, I bet the MNAAC could sell
them just outside the entrance to the First Care pregnancy clinic.
Sometimes I’m afraid we really don’t
have a prayer.
