Rational Nation USA
Liberty -vs- Tyranny
The face of Fundamental Christian Bigotry! |
The face of a strong diverse America! |
Mrs. Rational and I took our dynamo back home to Mom and Dad yesterday as he will be going with them to Myrtle Beach Friday for two weeks. Yes, he is one lucky, and very appreciative dynamo. His family is hard working and as a result he is able to enjoy some of the fruits of their labor. With continued perseverance, and maybe a bit of luck this dynamo will be as educated and forward thinking as his supportive family.
Coming home for a day before heading south to the casinos I could not resit the temptation to visit the ever present Memeorandum and catch up just a bit on current events. During my diligent review of the "news" on Memeorandum I could not help but notice the still present bigotry and racism that apparently continues to exists in the dark pockets of Christian fundamentalism. Perhaps it is but a few who support this disgraceful conduct, however it is never the less disgraceful as well as despicable.
The question for all intelligent, reasonable, and rational individuals to ask themselves is whether they want America to be a bigoted and racist nation (as apparently some Fundamentalist Christians do) or whether they want America to be the diverse nation that has always been the wellspring of our strength.
Sadly, I fear the worst. In 2012 for any organization, especially a "Christian" organization of Pastors to take the position of "All White Christians Invited" simply defies any sense of understanding or logic.
As Mrs. Rational and I leave for the casinos we leave wondering just what exactly has been lost on a certain share of the American population.
Another interesting read, however the bigots and racists in America likely won't get past the first paragraph before zoning out. Sad. Sad indeed!
There are simply some things which should transcend liberal -vs- conservative doctrine. This issue happens to be one of them.
