A Form of Idolatry’: Democrat Justin Jones Calls Offering Thoughts and Prayers ‘Theological Malpractice’ on MSNBC

Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones, a Democrat, told a vigorously agreeing MSNBC host Ali Velshi on Saturday that offering thoughts and prayers following a tragedy like the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting is “theological malpractice” and accused those doing so of “idolatry.”

Jones is a frequent cable news guest and far-left activist lawmaker who came to prominence when he and other members helped lead protesters in occupying the Tennessee House to protest against guns.

Hey Justin Jones WE think the silly ‘holding candles’ and creating large garbage piles of flowers is stupid too.

We don’t say it and we tend to respect your people’s way of grieving because we’re not evil and crass and hateful like democrats. Eff of Justin Jones - take your hate and evil and stuff it... And tell your sexual weirdo community to stop killing our children.

OK, now they can do Islam - the decapitare.

I knew I heard his name before. Jones was one of two reps tossed out of Tennessee's State House for being a total assclown - only to be reinstated a short time later because the former Resident and then Pretend-esident (Obama and Biden) spoke up for him.

He is exactly the sort Booker T. Washington warned of:

“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don’t want the patient to get well.”

That is a phenomenally good article so far-I don't have time to finish it, but it appears to be spot on. This part really got me:

---

"...One evening, after enthusiastically explaining the symbolism of the inverted pentagram tattooed on her shoulder, she informed me with invincible confidence that not only was gender an arbitrary social construction, but that even the idea of biological sex was nothing more than convention. Her reasoning, which I presume she’d gleaned from a seminar on radically liberatory queer theory, was that testosterone levels fluctuated during the day, so ‘males’ changed their degree of ‘maleness’ all the time, and how can something that’s constantly changing be used as the basis for a hard binary distinction?

“But that’s not how biological sex is defined,” I replied. “Testosterone is just a hormone. It’s only present in vertebrates. Insects don’t have it, and neither do plants, but they still have biological sex. Sex is defined according to whether an organism produces mobile gametes or sessile gametes, which is basically universal across multicellular life forms.”

“I don’t understand what that means,” she chirped, still thinking we were playing language games. “Like I don’t know what a ‘sessile gamete’ is.”

“Oh,” I responded helpfully, “A gamete is just a reproductive cell. Sessile means it doesn’t move. So –”

The horrible reality of what I was saying dawned upon her. “I just realized that this isn’t a conversation I should be having,” she cut me off, and walked away.

It was remarkable. The mindworm parasitizing her consciousness had detected a threat to its structural integrity, and ordered its host to remove herself from the interaction before she consumed a malinformative infohazard. She didn’t even pretend that this wasn’t what she was doing. I’d never before seen something quite like it...

I just loved that last paragraph! That is Leftism.

There is such an organization as the “Satanic Cult.” They claim to be a religion that is oppressed, and promote their own paraphrenalia wherever they think there might be people vulnerable and susceptible to their message.

They are the people behind the movement to ban religion from public expression as their interpretation of the First Amendment — the most abused and hijacked amendment of all. (For the longest while, the mainstream media claimed it created themselves as a special class of individuals above all the rest — as the “Fourth Estate” — with unlimited powers, no less.) The First Amendment does not ban religious expression — as the Freys, Klobuchars, Newsomes, Walzes, and Satanic Cultists of the world would have us believe. It makes no rules regarding such expression — which was the original intent in the founding of this country.

Now the Satanists would have everyone believe that only Satan should be worshipped.

I had a theology professor who said he always prayed when an ambulance went by. I guess that was idolatry too, because he wasn’t in the ambulance or at the hospital giving medical attention.

I am 500 miles from Minneapolis. What else could I do but pray? Two kids were killed and many others wounded. Lord, have mercy on them and their families, even though a mighty state representative says You shouldn’t.

[frank ballenger]

Although it’s far above his low IQ mind to understand it, when the Dems/Socialists/Marxist/Communists denigrate and suppress worship of God, replacing it with subservience to the state, it is idolatry on their part. Worship of the state.
