You wake in the park after a night of self destructive binging with a map. Your money is gone, your friends are gone, and you smell terrible. You ran away from home with half of your Father’s money and a GIGANTIC ego trip. Now, a few weeks later, you’re face down in goose poop, and you’re cold and hungry. But you wake up with a map.
On the map is a hand written note that says “I’m here. When you wake up, come to me and I’ll drive you home- love dad.” An arrow points to an X a few miles away, and the address is written out in bold letters. You can hardly believe your eyes. Your Father has given you a map to where he is! And he is waiting to take you home! You were sure he was going to send a pack of wolves to eat you, because you kind of deserve that. But He is waiting to take you home! All you need to do it go to him.
If you’ve paid any attention to the debate over abortion, you have no doubt heard a lot of catch phrases bantered about by both sides as if they are in a bumper-sticker Battle Royale. Unfortunately these marketing slap fights do little to change people’s minds, and I think this is because they do little to clarify either position to the other side. Thus, in order to serve the greater good, I am going to help translate the pro-choice bumper stickers for my pro-life readers, which will (hopefully) in turn clarify the pro-life position to my pro-choice readers.
Please fasten your seat-belts and mind diapers, and please do your best to follow the argument as it progresses and not start cursing me out because you think you know where I might be going with this. No flash photography, and please hold all of your questions until the end.
The camp who wishes Abortion to be legal and available to women call themselves Pro-Choice.
Remember when the governments of the world shut down almost every business they didn’t directly draw income from in order to stop the spread of a rather aggressive cold and flu virus from China? Well, the next big name in pandemic is on it’s way! Think they’ll be shutting down businesses and demanding quarantining? I’m guessing no. And here’s why I think they won’t: AIDS.
You see, for literally my entire life, AIDS has been killing predominantly homosexual men. But despite the lethal nature of this disease, and the way in which it is spread through sexual contact, the same politicians who made everyone stay home for 2020 so they could mail in their 80 million votes for Joe Biden, have done absolutely nothing to stop gay men from meeting with and having sex with other gay men. California has even gone so far as to protect gay men with AIDS from having to disclose the fact that they have AIDS to the other men they are having sex with.
Let me put this in perspective for you, in case you haven’t heard me do it before: If you had gone to the public library or an airport during 2020 KNOWING you had the virus which must not be named (made in China) you could have gone to jail and every Leftist Karen on Twitter would have called for your immediate public execution. But if you had been a gay man who KNEW HE HAD AIDS, the law of California said, “Nah, you don’t have to let anyone know. That’s YOUR business.”
“But if you can’t prove you’ve been vaccinated you BETTER NOT TRY AND ATTEND A CONCERT OR USE THE GYM!!!!”
I have said before that the Democratic Left doesn’t care about the lives of homosexuals, and merely uses them as a weapon with which to attack the Christians, Republicans and other right wing people who don’t watch CNN. They even go so far as to hide information which can be used to help those homosexuals to avoid various forms of abuse and death because it doesn’t help their narrative. Here’s just another recent example:
As you can see, they say this about the Money Pox epidemic: “many of the people affected globally so far are men who identify as gay or bisexual.”
Remember when Joe Biden called Pro-Life Americans the most EXTREME political group in US history? Things have changed a bit since then. A miracle occurred today on par with the legalization of conceal carry in Illinois, and that is that the Supreme Court finally realized that the Constitution doesn’t allow anyone to murder babies. Roe Vs Wade has been overturned and the mere threat of this action has set leftists into a violent rage for several weeks already.
Women Celebrate the end of Federally controlled infanticide.
Protests from the pro-abortion crowd are becoming increasingly violent. Property has been damaged. Several Supreme Court Justices have been threatened at their own homes. So, let me sum up what has happened to cause this wave of hate and violence:
The federal government has been told that murdering babies is not in their jurisdiction. The States are once again in control of if their laws allow babies to be murdered. So it’s not technically illegal to murder babies. The Federal government just isn’t allowed to make that decision for the states anymore.
In response, Leftists who want the legal right to murder babies have turned to violence and destruction of private property. Pro-life organizations have been targeted by violence and destruction.
I don’t know what else you need to know, my Leftist friends. Abortion is the intentional murder of an innocent baby. Planned Parenthood was set up to kill off all Black Americans before they could take their first breath. That the Federal Government is no longer forcing this evil on the states is somehow so unacceptable to you that you have turned to hysterical anger, hate and violence.
At least that’s what the office told me when they gave me the disk of pictures. I have no other pictures of my brain with which to compare, and I’ve never seen my brain in person so as to recognize it from these hazy black and white pictures which I’m told came from a big magnet. It remains entirely possible that the pictures on that disk are pictures of somebody else’s brain.
Or that this is a Xerox image of something made entirely of playdough. I can’t prove that it’s not.
Here’s a comment from one of our many friends on the internet, who left this comment here. He said the following:
Science does not tell us that “the universe is not eternal in the past, but came into being.”
Firstly, the question of whether time is past-finite or past-infinite is an open one in cosmology. It has not yet been answered, despite the claims of some apologists to the contrary. There are some good reasons for thinking that time might be past-finite. There are other good reasons to think that it might not be.
More importantly, whether or not the universe is temporally past-finite, there was never a time in which the universe did not exist. Even if time had a first, initial moment, the universe existed in that moment. There were no moments prior to the first in which the universe didn’t exist. The idea that time could possibly “come into being” is entirely incoherent.
Unfortunately for you, whether or not a God exists, whether or not time is past-finite, if time is a part of the physical universe (as has been held by philosophy and Classical Theology dating at least as far back as St. Augustine) then there was never a time in which the physical universe did not exist, and it is therefore nonsense to claim that the universe “came into being.”
IHOP, the International House of Pancakes, announced not very long ago that they were going to start serving burgers. Not only that, but they were going to serve burgers SO GOOD that they decided to change their name to IHOB.
The Internet lost their collective minds.
It’s not exactly like the Twitter mob came home from a long 4 hour shift at Walmart to find their favorite cat strung up in the yard like a make shift piñata. It was more like they found their mother hanging their cat as a piñata a so Nazis could take turns hitting it with a crowbar.
Calvinists like to use the raising of Lazarus as a metaphor for what salvation is like. Our boy Lazarus is dead, and lying in his grave for a handful of days. He clearly is not going anywhere on his own. But then Jesus shows up.
Jesus goes to the tomb and prays, and then
he cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out.” The man who had died came out, his hands and feet bound with linen strips, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”
John 11:43-44
Our friend Calvin says that THIS is what salvation is like. We’re ALL dead, and Jesus comes to some tombs and calls us out of them, and we are alive again, or what we might call, Born Again. And to some extent, this is something no one would argue with. So naturally, the Calvinists had to find a way to get people to argue with them about it, because Calvinists love an argument like I love a pizza so loaded with cheese and toppings than people at the next table can hear my arteries begging for mercy.
Jesus says turn the other cheek. Darwin says survival of the fittest. When Will Smith walked up onto the 2022 Oscar stage and slapped the taste out of Chris Rock’s mouth, it may have had an evolutionary advantage. Who can say? Jesus would have condemned this act of televised violence, but what does science tell us?
Science can measure the force exerted on Rock’s face, but can it measure the rightness or wrongness of walking up on stage and slapping the taste out of a man’s mouth during the Oscars?
My friend Jim stopped by to leave his thoughts on something I has written:
I get your point, but all you have for your proof is a book that claims itself true which is a nonsensical argument. It is also filled with things that are not true. Which ones are you selecting? I have no burden of proof whatsoever. The universe just is, and if I can’t explain in detail how that happened it doesn’t make you right based on a book that claims it’s right. The Quran does the same thing. And I don’t believe that either, but it would be just as valid if I did.
