News Weakly - 5/7/22

Educational Drift
Baylor University recently announced that it officially chartered an LGBTQ+ organization. Baylor is a "private Christian university," nationally ranked, in Waco, Texas, and they illustrate how tolerance of sin becomes leaven that leavens the whole lump. Joining with "Christian" universities like Azusa Pacific in California and Wheaton College in Illinois, so-called "Christian" colleges continue the drift from "sure faith" to no connection to faith as the likes of Yale and Harvard have done. I complain a lot about the redefinition of words. "Christian" is just such a one.

When Rights Collide
California's governor is proposing an amendment to the state's constitution that will "enshrine the right to choose." The children the amendment will kill will not be allowed the right to choose. Neither will anyone in the state when the next experimental pandemic vaccine rolls out. No, not "the right to choose." Just the right to terminate the life of the unborn.

Terminations
Someone leaked a document of an opinion circulating in the Supreme Court regarding the termination of Roe v Wade. Chief Justice John Roberts calls it a "betrayal of the confidences of the court" and is launching an investigation. Clearly attempts to sway the court by public opinion is a violation of the whole concept of the Judicial Branch of the government. A "betrayal of the confidence of the court"? I'd say it was judicial treason. And it's quite ironic. It's about the termination of Roe v Wade which is about the termination of the unborn, the leak of which could result in the termination of whoever leaked it. Worse, I hope. (Note that the president believes that the "stability of law" demands that we continue killing babies. If necessary, he'll work to make killing babies the law.)

Crimes and Misdemeanors
Canada, concerned about pronoun criminals, is addressing another serious problem -- crimes on the moon. Mind you, no Canadian has ever been to the moon, and no known crime has ever been committed there, but not to worry; Canada has that covered.

Insolvent Solutions?
In an effort to decrease our inflation and rising price woes, the fed decided to authorize the biggest interest rate hike in 20 years. The success of the move is first attested to by the 1000+ point drop in the Dow Jones. There you go. That ought to improve things. Does anyone else get the impression that our government overlords don't know what they're doing?

More Misinformation
All those false claims out there that the vaccine was potentially dangerous and all that. Lies and misinformation. Well ... mostly. A year later, Pfizer was told to release their data which included 158,893 adverse effects reports including 1223 deaths. And the FDA has strictly limited the Johnson & Johnson vaccine due to the ongoing risk of serious blood clots. "It's perfectly safe," they told us, "and anyone who tells you it's not is giving misinformation." Twitter has banned the CDC and the FDA for misinformation. (Okay, that last line was only in my head.)

Target-Rich Environment
All this was too much for the Bee. You know they had a lot to say on Supreme Court story. There was the picture of Elizabeth Warren wearing a buffalo hat leading an insurrection against the Supreme Court. There was Ketanji Brown Jackson reading biology textbooks trying to figure out just what the "women's" right to abortion means. There was the panic from the Left when they realized millions of babies might live. And one of my personal favorites, the story of the crowd of worshippers who chanted all night but couldn't get Molech to answer them*.
________
*In case you didn't get that last reference, there are those who refer to pro-abortion folks as Molech worshippers because Moloch was a god whose worship included sacrificing babies. And, of course, Elijah had a "battle royale" with the priests of Baal in which they chanted all day and Baal didn't answer. There you go. No better way to ruin a joke than to explain it, right?
