The left protects their own; or, referring to a couple of posts below, darkness protects darkness. Candi CDeBaca essentially advocated germ warfare by supporting the idea that chromavirus infected people should attend Pres. Trump rallies. Why isn’t she in jail for hate speech?

Senator minority leader Chuck Schumer stood on the steps of the Supreme Court and threatened the Justices should they vote in favor of support for the very logical Louisiana law requiring an abortionist to have hospital credentials. Why isn’t he in jail for hate speech?

“…evil is the ultimate source of all totalitarianisms. If we are committed to something that is wrong, we can brook no reasoned opposition.” Remind you of a particular political party? Of a particular pattern of behavior in UC Berkley types? Of a particular pattern in rabid feminists? Of a particular pattern of the left?

“No wonder, then, that modern secular courts are ever inventing more reasons to restrict the speech and behavior of Christians, lest light be shed on the pagan darkness which offers cover to those who hate the light.”

Jesus told us of this over 2000 years ago: “And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.” [Jn 3:19-20]

Judge Andreas Vosskuhle at the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe said the right to a self-determined death included “the freedom to take one’s life and seek help doing so”.

The court also surprised observers by explicitly stating that the right to assisted suicide services should not be limited to the seriously or incurably ill.

And where will this new “right” be implemented next?

Today (03/08/2020) was the gospel concerning the Transfiguration. For me, it is a most mysterious and non-understandable passage. Apparently, for reasons known to God alone, He wanted the three apostles, Peter, James and John, to realize just who this Jesus is. One could presume that the vision strengthened these apostles who, in turn, might have used the event to strenghten the rest of the apostles – “Jesus charged them, saying: Tell the vision to no man, till the Son of man be risen from the dead”. – since they would be the most likely to recall Jesus’ taking the three with Him up the mountain.
