Libs Despise Virtue.
1 Wis 2:1, 12-22
The wicked said among themselves,
thinking not aright:
“Let us beset the just one, because he is obnoxious to us;
he sets himself against our doings,
Reproaches us for transgressions of the law
and charges us with violations of our training.
He professes to have knowledge of God
and styles himself a child of the LORD.
To us he is the censure of our thoughts;
merely to see him is a hardship for us,
Because his life is not like that of others,
and different are his ways.
He judges us debased;
he holds aloof from our paths as from things impure.
He calls blest the destiny of the just
and boasts that God is his Father.
Let us see whether his words be true;
let us find out what will happen to him.
For if the just one be the son of God, he will defend him
and deliver him from the hand of his foes.
With revilement and torture let us put him to the test
that we may have proof of his gentleness
and try his patience.
Let us condemn him to a shameful death;
for according to his own words, God will take care of him.”
These were their thoughts, but they erred;
for their wickedness blinded them,
and they knew not the hidden counsels of God;
neither did they count on a recompense of holiness
nor discern the innocent souls’ reward.
I wonder what this chickie-poo thinks of Bill Clinton.
Pence and his wife really need to keep this stuff private. Trust me, conservatives are not helping themselves with this kind of stuff. It’s smacks of evangelical kookery , and does nothing to “lower the demos” for conservatism, something it desperately needs.
So I guess it was alright, using the logic of feminist criticism of Pence as a guide, for Bill to orally service Monica in the White House while Hillary and Chelsea were away on an overseas tour during a summer in the mid 1990s?
It's even simpler than that - false accusations often happen. Especially when the invitee has an ideological axe to grind, as so many do with any conservative politician.
No. Actually it is because they forced Christians into the closet and banned virtue from the public square. Our “Just” laws now promote vice.
It is all just common sense and the understanding of human nature and the understanding that males and females are different. But common sense and logic is being stripped from our children and culture so we remain dumb and irrational for life-—like tribal people (collective minds).
This ignorance-—the loss of virtue—and the intentional vulgarization of our culture and “Sex Ed” (cultural marxism) to destroy virtue formaiton in children is why we are HERE.
Virtue has to be preached in ALL churches and ALL Just Law has to promote “public virtue” (Montesquieu)-—and it was banned in the 60s so children could be groomed for sodomy orgies like the ones in Hollywood with all the pretty little boys, and corrupted into satanism (immorality).
Vice creates slaves only (Socrates/Aristotle/Founders). Wisdom is the ability to discern Good and Evil. Now our culture FLIPS good and evil to normalize tribal, occult practices of sodomy, pederasty, incest, pedophilia, cannibalism, and baby-sacrifice (torture and killing).
When we HIDE virtue and promote vulgar evil use of human beings like with baby-killing and sodomizing others, we will get evil —like in the pagan, hedonist cultures and Afghanistan where boy harems and hating and mutilating women and girls is “normal”. Vice collapses culture and freedom is only possible with virtuous people.
Bill Clinton behavior, for a democrat, is a resume enhancement. There is no limit, absolutely no limit, to the depth of democrat sleaze.
Progressives seemed outraged at everything except white genocide.
It’s very wise, for his own protection. Sadly, there is nothing a motivated female would not stoop to to compromise a man in a powerful position like VP Pence.
So if they’ve had that policy for a long time in their marriage, it should be very comfortable to continue it, not like he’s being put on probation or anything.
No, Southern, we ( and they) need to sing this standard of moral conduct from the roof tops and from every platform and media available. These are people whom the US used to be like. I applaud the Pence’s and every other Christian family who toe the line in personal and public behavior.
This is the standard that can save our children and grand children from the lefts’ assault on values, family or other.
The leftists need to fear this kind of righteous behavior.
as a similar minded man and Army officer, I often had to step forward and demand that duty requirements did not impinge on my personal standards of conduct and honor- yes even to the extent that I had to fight for the ability to not be forced to travel with a woman unless there were others present. My commanders sometimes frowned, but they all complied and more than one even told he admired my resolute dedication to the honor of my marriage vows and fidelity to my wife ( now of 34 years).
This is personal self defense on more than one level - something only a Liberal, a raging feminist, or a fool (but, I repeat myself) imagines it unnecessary in today's climate of political accusations and/or blackmail.
Well, perhaps it is for them.
But normal people know what traps are often set out there to snare the unwary into a sexual harassment or similar lawsuit or compromising situation. This is how Feminists and Liberals so often prosper against their political and personal enemies.
Aha, this explains the latest strident, shrill, foot-stomping hissy fit on FB. My dear sister (who is a crazy-ass liberal) posted some screed today about “holier than thou” Pence and how Bernie Sanders is the most Christian and moral politician there is out there. I’ve been wondering why her latest snarky aside has been a pompous, self-righteous “What would Jesus do” when is comes to everything political since I know it’s not because they have a new understanding and appreciation for him.
This must be their latest bow in the quiver to mock, demean, insult and put down Christians. It’s insufferable to listen to but, since I’m behind enemy lines in California, there is no such thing as a discussion since I am soooo wrong. I’ve just been stunned by the virulent hatred seething out of the “tolerant”. No point in unfriending her since I think it’s important to have an understanding of what exactly they’re gnashing their teeth about....
You are exactly right. There may be many reasons for a man to decide to conduct himself this way, but when you see all the false accusations and character assassinations that public figures are put through, it only makes sense for a man in an important position to protect himself in this way for practical purposes.
Given the world we’re living in, to NOT do so would be a sign of poor judgment and of a lack of wisdom.
It is Washington after all. He does have power. There is also the chance of the ‘setup’ by the opposition party or groups opposed to Pence. So, he and his wife are very wise from a strategic standpoint and a tremendous example for others to follow. Hopefully, many Christians will see and follow the example. For these sexual libertines any light of truth is like sunlight to a vampire.
You are right, Christians need to be ashamed of their faith and be more like the world.
Pray America woke
I agree, I bet he learned a lesson from Anita Hill’s accusations during the Clarence Thomas Hearings.
You're on the wrong website, FRiend. There are thousands of us evangelical Christians here. The Bible is not "kookery" and if you think otherwise, DU will welcome you with open arms.
Yes, it’s sad that this is even news.
I think Pence is more interested in protecting himself from blackmail. I would be if I were him.
