Folks are always saying: “Don't talk about Religion or Politics in Polite Company.”
Now, I ask you, why is that? I personally believe it is because others might be swayed to see a sensible truth in the course of Conversation, which possibility far outweighs the risk of an altercation. The “dark side” is oh so happy when people follow after fables and half-truths, and so, the above admonition is probably the oldest known instance of “politically correct” instruction.
Well, I say “Curses upon politically correct and the jackass it rode in on!” It is nothing better than a gag order on truthful statements and information; a tool of destructive propaganda. If anyone is paying attention when the “politically correct” mongers are taking the stage, you might very well notice how they DEMAND that you be tolerant of their views, as they ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to be tolerant of any opposing views.
Have you noticed that the vast majority of people who embrace “politically correct” tend to see Nationalism as a divisive evil, rather than a unifying call to rally? With them, “Patriotism” is less important than a High School Mascot.
Have you noticed that the vast majority of people who embrace “politically correct” tend toward a “Peace At Any Price” philosophy. That is the very same philosophy that led women who had previously expressed a profound love for the land of their birth, to sleep with enemy soldiers – not with any trepidation or compunction, but actively seeking to be on what they believed at the time would be “the winning side.”
So, again I say, “Curses upon politically correct and the jackass it rode in on!”
So, back to the subjects of Religion and Politics, I give you the following video:
That just ain't right, what he said.

Florida Native and Lifelong Resident. Country, but not redneck. Vietnam Vet (1970-71) not ashamed. Starting to grey around the edges and in my beard. Missing my dear Wife since 4/22/07. She went to be with Jesus. [I believe the Holy Bible (as originally written) is the inerrant Word of God. As much as it depends upon me, I will be at peace with all. Nevertheless, I will not compromise the tenets of Biblical Christianity. I know that many who say they are Christian do not care for or obey the teachings of Jesus.] . . . . [I believe the Constitution of the United States, including the first ten amendments (as originally written) and subsequent amendments passed by prescribed process, are the only legitimate law of this Nation UNDER GOD; that the tenets of our Constitution can be plainly understood by The Common Folk, as well as the erudite; and that those who would change those plain meanings by any craft or crook are Traitors to us all.]
