Meditations of a christizen (christian-citizen)upon today's topics. |
|
I, Brother James, cultivated through my imagination 'The Word Courier's Journal'. It is but one of several literary efforts so conceived to include the "Word", the mind altering, eye opening, lifesaving Gospel of Jesus Christ into the everyday conversation on those things deemed relevant to readers. I and all other followers of the Lord are called to witness. Jesus said "Go therefore and teach all nations..." (see Matthew 28:19 KJV Holy Bible) Here lies my modest attempt to introduce the unknowing people to the Lord and immerse they who know Him in discussion with respect to His outlook on all that matters. |
| I don't hear it. Upon holding my hand on my ears and stretching my neck out, I still don't hear it. Perhaps the sound that I'm listening for isn't there. Where is the outcry from the president's rabid pro life evangelical supporters about alleged government obstruction into multiple womens ability to bear children? A government agency, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) is partnered with a contractor accused of doing nonconsensual hysterectomies on immigrant women. Still, not a word from them. It wasn't that long ago Donald Trump trotted out former college football coach Lou Holtz among others at his Republican party convention. Coach Holtz led several football teams, notably the universities of Arkansas and South Carolina. He won his lone national championship at Notre Dame with its storied and very Roman Catholic tradition. He's not only catholic , he is so catholic that its his prerogative to determine who the legit Catholics are. He renounced Sen. Joe Biden as catholic in name only due to his political stance on abortion. Yet, this alleged government interference with life doesn't seem to bother coach. He hasn't spoken up about government collusion who may have conducted 17 coerced hysterectomies. The president's evangelical prayer partner, Rev. Franklin Graham is also silent on the issue. And, herein lies the problem. It seems some are pro life only when it suits them. The trumpettes readily play the conservative abortion card when it's time to chase votes. They're against government interference to the right to life come election time. This is as witnessed in their Republican convention. Government sponsored obstruction of lives and the possibility of lives seems like something a true conservative i.e. limited government, respect for rule of law and personal freedom devotee would be against. But, not in this case. However, it's Democrats that are raising their voices about this. Congressional leaders of the U.S. House of Representatives, Speaker Nancy Pelosi,(D-Ca) Bennie Thompson (D-MS) Chair of the House Homeland Security Committee, and Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) have raised concerns about this. In fact, the House Speaker has indicated the complaint lodged over this behavior will be investigated. All this is in response to a complaint filed by Project South an organization not affiliated with conservatism. Apparently, Trumpian pro life crowd values some lives over others. The lives of and potential lives from the women affected by Georgia's Irwin Cy Detention Center don't factor in their definition of life. A more disturbing reality rears its ugly head. The accused actions actually is a form of mankind taking on the role of our Lord with regard to choosing who will and will not reproduce. Such a thing is a the most extreme act of heresy. The irony that this would come from an administration whose supporters think of themselves as faith based. |
