Moral Absolutes Ping:

A fellow freeper (Outland) sent this to me today, and it is very apt:

"Call me a kook if you like, but I can not be disuaded from the idea that the Schiavo travesty is a test upon humanity. Not an accidental test, but one that was of purposeful and devine intent. Humanity failed the test and the ramifications of that failure may soon follow.

In the least, is has glaringly demonstrated how the law is selectively enforced; how little meaning life has in this age; exposed many self-professed "believers" of morality and faith; how our Constitution serves little more purpose than a door mat; how illogical humanity is; and worst of all... how our continuing apathetic inaction not only got us to this point, but maintains our course a totally unjust, immoral and chaotic society.

I'm not of the persuasion that this can't be changed, but instead, that it won't be changed.

In a way, it might be regarded as sick humor, but I laugh at the irony exposed here. Many "Christian" members of FR who are against the idea of doing anything pro-active or using force or "breaking the law" to fight an unjust imposition are the same who speak against socialism and the liberal mindset. However, it is this same apathetic inaction that socialism and tyranny thrive on and the very vehicle that it arrives on. They help to bring about the very doom that they dread. If we stayed that course long ago, there never would have been a "United States of America". And at this point, Im not sure there's much left of it now."

Let me know if you want (back)on/off this pinglist.

What I find outrageous is that the same Death-o-crats which had no problem in SCOTUS taking away the issue over abortion from the states have raised a stink over Congress tranferring the issue over Terri from the Florida state courts to the federal level courts.

Death-o-crats want what they want, when they want and where they want it.
