Like Swiss Cheese

 “After Nex Benedict's death, Oklahoma's Ryan Walters: Just two genders, as God intended. Walters, the state's superintendent of public instruction, is denying the existence of trans and nonbinary people after nonbinary teen Nex Benedict's death.”(The Advocate)

-----Playing God, and being permitted to play God, within this nation that God, being an Evangelical Christian God, is now the practice of politics for people identifying a Conservatives, but basically acting as Theocrats, Christian Theocrats.

 

“There’s not multiple genders. There’s two. That’s how God created us,” Walters told The New York Times in his first interview about Benedict’s death. He said “he did not believe that nonbinary or transgender people exist” and that the state would not let students use names or pronouns other than those matching their birth records, the Times reports.” (The Advocate)

----Insisting that YOU know exactly how God thinks, thought, and will think about the future, is quite the egomaniacal personality, insisting that YOU are more of a super human, a clearing house of sorts, for any and all Godly machinations and manifestos. 

 

“Alabama Supreme Court judge who helped strike down IVF cites 'the wrath of a holy God' in concurring opinion.” (Fortune)

----For the most self-indulgent most Godly of the Godliest, they enjoy the opportunity to become a spokesperson for their God, ignoring any hypocrisy as to who and why their God picks and chooses for whom HIS WRATH will be delivered.

 

“By citing verses from the Bible and Christian theologians in his concurring opinion, Chief Justice Tom Parker alarmed advocates for church-state separation, while delighting religious conservatives who oppose abortion. Human life, Parker wrote, “cannot be wrongfully destroyed without incurring the wrath of a holy God, who views the destruction of His image as an affront to Himself.” (Fortune)

----Of course, not any GOD is the perfect God, because God forbid, his ego might be hurt if one even hinted at looking at other Gods. It is for those who know there IS and WILL be on one true God, the one they travel with when convenient, the one who SELECTED them to run God’s PR agency.

 

Once upon a time, this nation had been founded on a separation between church and state…of course like most fairytales, the separation has been more of a flimsy plastic wrap than one made of concrete… BUT no in the age TRUMP, that flimsy film of plastic wrap looks more like Swiss Cheese.
