The Hypocrisy of Our Culture and Our Condemning Silence

By now, most people have already heard how former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling was fired from his position at ESPN. (see story here).The reason for his termination was a post he put on his personal Facebook account that some found offensive to the transgender (or whatever we are calling them this week) community. ESPN then went so far as to remove virtually any reference to Curt Schilling in documentary they produced about the Red Sox 2004 World Series win, in which he played a large part in.

You can view his facebook post at this link. While I agree that it is somewhat unpleasant to look at, it points out the absurdity of the transgender bathroom debate in our culture right now. To sum it all up, the "progressive" minded folks in our society are willing to put our children at risk in public bathrooms in order to appease a very minuscule, but very vocal, percentage of the general population that due to a mental disorder, cannot identify with their God given gender. Schilling agrees with those of us who see the need for states to pass these "bathroom laws" to protect the most vulnerable in our society.

This Should Surprise No One

TV Executives Admit in Taped Interviews That Hollywood Pushes a Liberal Agenda

Several years ago a Franciscan priest, Fr. David Engo, was conducting a parish mission at my Church. He said that the best thing a person can do about the trash on TV is to put on a pair of steel-toe boots, kick the TV as hard as possible in the screen and throw it in the garbage.

After reading the above article, I have a serious urge to go shopping for some boots.
