When my son was in grade school, I used to take him on three-day skiing trips during Christmas break. Two other fathers brought their kids as well, and we always had a terrific time.
Years later, one of the other fathers died, and his widow hosted a memorial service at their house that my son and I attended. As it happened, the “service” was a standard party with alcohol and music, and no one even mentioned the name of the deceased, let alone eulogized him.
On the drive home, I told my son, “When I die, I would appreciate a memorial service. But if you fail to mention my name, I’m going to rise from the grave, reassemble my body, and give you a good swift kick in the ass.”
We laughed, and my son admitted that he could scarcely believe that had happened.
There is a parallel news story here, where, several days after Navalny died at Putin’s hands, Trump finally spoke of Navalny, but without even mentioning Putin, and comparing the death to his own legal woes.
Answer:
No. About 70% of the country objects to Trump’s sociopathic criminality.
He’s supported by about 28% of hateful morons, and 2% of rich greedy, selfish pigs.
As they say, “Check your bank account if you want to know which of these groups you fall into.”
If you want to remain ignorant of science, that’s your choice. Homeschool your kids and teach them that rejecting Christ will send them to an eternity of torment in hell.
You’ll need to start while their still young, while they’re still incapable of asking you why all the little boys and girls who are born in non-Christian countries are doomed to be tortured forever.
Maybe if you can isolate them such that they’ll never question why the bible says the Earth is 6000 years old, when dinosaur bones are hundreds of millions of years old.
If you want to go down this road, which I call child abuse, you have that right.
But realize this: as time passes and science continues to help us cure disease, explore space, extend our lives, and, we hope, help us to avert environmental collapse, your position will reveal itself for what it is: cruel stupidity.
Dr. Brian Cox has risen to the status of what I would call an “astrophysics badass” in a matter of just a few short years. Anywhere you go on social media, there’s Cox making you think the most profound thoughts imaginable.
I won’t give anything away, but I caution you to fasten your seatbelt.
