Who's intolerant again? The "Repugnant" LEFT!
From reading this blog, you might think I'm some right-wing, Christian, 'family-values', anti-whatever with black helicopter defense systems built into the roof of my bomb shelter. At least you might think that until you find the posts about decriminalizing marijuana.
The reality is, I'm just about dead center between the left and the right. The right abhors the liberalization of drugs, which I strongly support; the right abhors choice (related to abortion, and for that matter, what I do to my body in any respect...drugs, whatever) which I strongly support; the right abhors or wishes to weaken separation of church and state, with which I strongly disagree. I don't support the Iraq war; I don't support the Patriot Act; I could go on and on.
But here's where the right beats the left hands down...HYPOCRISY. The left touts freedom of speech, unless it's "hate speech", the definition of which they conveniently own. They fiercely defended Clinton when he so obviously lied under oath and committed "sexual harrassment" as--again--defined by the left themselves, and then go after a gay Congressman whose misdeeds were decidedly less despicable. The left touts tolerance, unless it is of a viewpoint with which they decide is repugnant.
This article soundly supports everything I state above. CBS / Katie the Bitch Couric decided to allow a so-called right wing person to comment on their beloved evening news show. Those comments caused Katie the Bitch Couric to state later that "some might find the comments repugnant." Really? Know how many millions of Americans find your flavor of left-wing bias "repugnant"? No? Well, millions! Here are the comments Ms. Bitch Couric decided some Americans might find "repugnant" (the son of the man making these comments was murdered in the Columbine school shooting):
Since that day, I tried to answer the question why did this happen? This country is in a moral free fall. For over two generations, the public school system has taught in a moral vacuum, expelling God from the school and from the government, replacing Him with evolution, where the strong kill the weak without moral consequences. And life has no inherent value.
We teach there are no absolutes, no right or wrong. And I assure you, the murder of innocent children is always wrong, including by abortion.
Abortion has diminished the value of children. Suicide has become an acceptable action and has further emboldened these criminals. And we are seeing an epidemic increase in murder/suicide attacks on our children.
Sadly, our schools are not safe. In fact, we now witness that within our schools, our children have become a target of terrorists from within the United States.
Will someone tell me how valuing human life is repugnant? I strongly believe and find evidence everyday of the fact that evolution occurred, and so I strongly disagree with Mr. Rohrbough that evolution should not be taught. I do not agree that teaching evolution devalues human life. I believe evolution gave us human life as we know it. I am also pro-choice, but I understand why many people are not. Still, I clearly understand the fact that while my beliefs are polar to Mr. Rohrbough's, it does not make Mr. Rohrboughs beliefs repugnant. Rabid muslim extremists slaughtering innocents is repugnant. The baptists who protest funerals with the twisted belief that all bad things happen because gay people exist is repugnant.
But it simply cannot be "repugnant" to try to find answers for the reasons that children seem to be the number one target against which the insane are exacting their demented visions of revenge and rage. It is not repugnant to wonder: If our high schoolers were taught day in and day out "Thou Shalt Not Kill" instead of "you shouldn't judge people", might these scenes of carnage not have taken place? What left-wing powder puff finds such thoughts "repugnant"?
Both the left and the right have the presumption of owning the moral high. However, the left criticize and mocks the right for doing it because the left is so certain their stance really is the correct one and all others are utterly invalid, at best, flat out evil at worst. I have a news flash...you should have stopped believing that you know everything as soon as there was no -teen in the latter half of your age spelled out in letters. You should have learned by now that no human, NO human, has all the answers nor the key to the correct way the Earth should exist. And you should live by your own tolerance mantras to be TOLERANT of differing viewpoints, not repulsed. When the right wingers start tossing babies into the volcanoes to ease God's wrath, then you can be repulsed. But not until then. And shoot, maybe even then you might find your multiculturalism could not shun such a practice...Mr. Rohrbough is right about this part; anything goes in LiberalLand, except conservative beliefs.
