Okay…….someone asked me to do a bit on McCain (or they
suggested I should…..but people make a lot of suggestions about what I should
do….and some of them I can’t physically pull off), and I am going to do that….I
owe it to me. BUT FIRST!!!!! Check this out. This was brought to my attention by my FB friend Anne Chovie (yes, that is
apparently her real name and that forces me to imagine that she must be a
delightful person with an eye for nuanced humor.
There is a group of nuns, of whom I have never heard….and
that is okay…..as an Anglican I am outside of the Catholic church looking
in. As a matter of fact, outside of a distant
family member, the only nun I am aware of is Sally Field…..and even her not so
much anymore. They travel the nation
advocating for social justice….which right THERE should set off your Scooby-Doo
radar…..and their latest axe to grind is the harsh Trump tax cuts. They are going to protest in front of their
elected officials homes, offices and even in front of Mar-a-Largo.
So, I am NOT against nuns having political opinions, even
though they are democrat opinions. And
you know these are lefties because they are protesting something that is good
for Americans. I am all for them having
their voice….I have my own ideas about faith based things that I feel certain a
nun would eschew. You can see the story
here.
And this was in the United Kingdoms’ Independent….which is
almost as anti-American as the New York Times, so consider the source. And the story was on Facebook, so you can
also assume that most of the followers are leftard wing nuts. It got a few very positive responses from
people that will never contribute materially to civilization, but also got a
few harpoons from thinkers, which you know it deserved. ONE of the ignorant rebuttals is pasted
below.
“Elizabeth Matustik Wow! Such hatred
for a wonderful cause. Nuns were not responsible for the sexual misconduct in
the Church. There are other important issues beside abortion and birth control.
It is the business of spiritually motivated people to provide guidance. I can’t
wait. Good for you, Sisters!”
Where in the WORLD do you even start addressing such morally
and intellectually bankrupt “moral equivalency”?
Let’s start with the tax cuts. Like him or not, the economy is smoking hot
right now. I can see evidence of it all
across my small, crappy town. One absolute
truism is that tax cuts bring in more revenue.
Liberals either cannot accept that but are too stupid to believe
it. Another truism is that, if you cut
taxes and continue to increase spending, which congress has done, the deficit
and debt WILL grow…..and it does. But
don’t blame the tax cuts, be honest and blame the spending. Along with that, is another truth that social
warriors will not admit; 90% of all taxes are paid by about 10% of all people,
and 50% (I think it is 49 and change) pay none at all, yet still enjoy the
American dream. I guess my advice to the
nuns’ would be to protest something that is a real issue.
And my advice to Elizabeth Matusik would be to figure out
what IS a real issue. There is absolutely
NO WAY that a healthy mind can equate (equivalency) abortion (which is not “birth control”) to
tax cuts or poverty. None. Not one.
For her to make the comment that essentially “yeah, abortion is an
important issue, but so are tax cuts” is the same as saying that one (abortion)
is an issue on the par with tax cuts; murder of the most innocent is bad, but
so are tax cuts with which we disagree.”
Therefore, YOU GO NUNS.
And you cannot debate a point like that with a fool….you
cannot. That they would even think like
that is a testimony to failed schools, failed parenting or failed mental
faculties, or possibly a combination of all.
I say again….I am a big fan of the faith, I am a big fan of
the Church, I am a big believer (I have seen faith and belief work wonders in
my OWN life, too often to believe that it doesn’t have an impact and FAR to
well to trust anything the government)….I AM A BIG FAN. But I also see faux social justice for what
it is….complete bullshit. And I ALSO see
moral equivalency as flat out wrong. And that
is what the nuns and Elizabeth Matusik are both guilty of here; they are espousing
bullshit and are flat out wrong.
I will be in the office all week.
