When voting is too Hypocritical
Judge not , that ye be not judged. For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged : and with what measure ye meet, it shall be measured to you again ....
....Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye.... (Matthew 7: 1,2.5a).
It is about hypocrisy. Jesus never tells us ,anywhere, we are never to make judgements.
Even deciding what is hypocritical ,and what is not, is base upon judgement - let alone Christ’s whole “Sermon on the Mount”, which is an exhortation to judge our lives in the light of Christ’s teachings.
.........I could not bring myself to vote in our last provincial election. Of course, I was scolded by two friends down at the coffee shop.
“You have to vote, Ron! Look, Ron, even though I don’t agree with the Green Party, I voted just to weaken Christy Clarke and the Liberals,” said my coffee friend.
The end justifies the means. If you have to, vote the worst political party out.
My answer to my coffee friend, was that I have voted for the lesser of the two evils in the past. This time ‘round, I could not bring myself to do it.
Why? I cannot see any political party out there, that truly supports “LIFE.”
I only see the lowest dregs of political utility, rife within every political party. Death is the result. Only death, only social death is being preached.
Why?
Because Western Society has abandonned the heart of any society - the Family.
The family is the life-giving, and life-affirming, foundation to all society. Attempting to change the family, to man and man, or woman and woman, in place of man and woman, can never maintain a true and living society.Instead of breeding life into society, same-sex marriage bears no children - no life to replenish society.
Further, our society has enacted laws that destroys the ‘fruit’ of the family - children. Abortion on demand is the second death knell to Western Society, besides same-sex marriage. The end of these two modern distortions can only be a protracted social death - no more life.
For any living being, to vote for any political party that encourages anything but life, is utter, shameful, hypocrisy.
