I already did a post about stupid bumper stickers, but I saw one today that I had to comment on. The quote covered the entire back window of an SUV…
‘I’m just a normal MOM’
‘Doing my best to NOT raise liberal children.’
I so badly wanted to chase her down and ask ‘WHAT?’
Here is a quote from JFK,
“If by a “Liberal” they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people-their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights and their civil liberties-someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a “Liberal”, then I’m proud to say I’m a “Liberal.”
― John F. Kennedy, Profiles in Courage
What that being my basis for what a liberal is I am wonder what kind of children that this person is raising… I suppose she wants her children to feel self-righteous and entitled with zero empathy for another. That’s awesome, just what the world needs more narcissistic bullies that only feel that they should have dominion over whatever they see fit to claim as their own.
This fits into the mentality that the ‘former guy’ has given license to. I heard a pastor talking about Christ Sermon in the Mount. Sermon on the Mount, a biblical collection of religious teachings and ethical sayings of Jesus of Nazareth, as found in Matthew, chapters 5–7. It teaches that God’s children are those who act like God. The teachings of the sermon are often referred to as the “Ethics of the Kingdom”: they place a high level of emphasis on “purity of the heart” and embody the basic standard of Christian righteousness.
One of the parishioners asked the pastor, where did you get that liberal crap from?
So I guess now the Moral Minority has decided that Christianity that is supposed to follow the teachings form the New Testament is too LIBERAL. The name’s sake of their ‘supposed’ faith was weak and his lessons that have been disseminated for 2 plus centuries is no longer the model they wish to emulate.
I am very confused that the people that profess themselves to be Christian but have non compassion for anyone be themselves. I will honestly admit that I do not follow a faith, religion is great organized religion is a farce only meant to fleece it followers.
These bearers of false witness claim that liberals are portraying Jesus as WOKE and that isn’t at all what is in the Bible… Not only was Jesus woke, but the gospels make it clear that He ministered in a way that showed that being woke meant serving, living and loving. And yet, Jesus never carried a billboard or led a political protest. He never incited any insurrection against the Temple or Roman rule or even spoke in overtly political tones. All he did do was flip over the money changers tables in the temple in opposition to the Pharises fleecing the people.
For all of those who don’t agree read the book that has been printed and translated more than any book in history… Jesus, as described by his disciples, was a sandal wearing, hippy socialist that hung out with a bunch of dudes and the infirmed. Absolutely wasn’t carrying an AR15 and screaming at those that disagreed with him.
This post probably pissed some people off and that’s ok. Just hope it made some recognize hypocrisy.
