Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2024-361: Expectations

As I write, it seems that the presidency has been secured by Donald Trump and at the moment it looks like there will be a majority in both the Senate and the House.  Whether the Senate will get better, I have no idea.

Based on past experience, what are some of the things we can expect from the opposition?

First, we need to expect the rhinos to come out of the closet, and perhaps even takeoff their masks.  Don’t be shocked when several senators who have been elected as Republicans suddenly declared that they are crossing over to the other side.  Or they may just quietly boat where their pocketbook is rather than where their responsibility is.  Alaska I’m looking at you.  There could be more than one.

Expect extensive and unending lawsuits.  Expect the press to go on lying the way they have as far back as I can remember.  Remember, it was Walter Cronkite that surrendered for us in Vietnam, not the soldiers.  This is been going on a long time.  It will take even longer to correct it.  I would suggest that if you are doing anything that would direct money towards the mainstream media or the complicent corporations, you seriously consider other options.  Don’t wait for others to do it.

Expect National Enquirer style exposes against anyone who’s trying to keep the republic alive.  Perhaps JD Vance will be declared a voodoo priest.  And perhaps Ted Cruz will be accused and being warm and charismatic.  Remember the picture of Bill Clinton in the blue dress?  Photoshop Trumps face on that.  The options are only limited by the imagination of the America haters and believe me when it comes to hating America they have very vivid imaginations.
