Well there you go a story swept under the rug not talked about and if the name of the person involved was "Donald Trump" we would not hear the end of it with this regarding "Joe Biden" we don't even hear the beginning of it.
When it comes to sex-related matters I never shy away I think when it is all said and done we human beings are capable of and have done wrong in thought, word and deed.
I am thankful there's a right way forward when it comes to sex and sexuality.
I will not argue about sexuality with people but I will say this without reservation if my sexual activities are selfish, gratuitous, harmful to myself and others they're wrong.
Your Hypochristian Host continuing the tradition of media excellence here.
I had a teacher at the university he was into Biblical Criticism as in taking the Bible and doing the critique of the writing with "E" documents, "G" documents that kind of stuff.
That criticism of the Bible that began well over a century ago very controversial in the debate between religious Conservatives and religious Liberals over the decades.
He used to comment that there were:
"Three types of Fundamentalists, Protestant, Catholic and Jewish"
Well let me borrow from that experience.
THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF SELF-RIGHTEOUS HYPOCRITES

"Moderate"

I'm glad I was sober when the Supreme Court decision came down yesterday and I am still glad to be sober today. This ex-member of the "Pro-Life Movement" and the "Religious Right" still "Pro-Life" just a part of the sober faction for Life and Liberty.
I'm not a blind drunk fool for the Republican Party Machine the "Fakeservative Movement".
(WARNING: THE FOLLOWING MAY BE DISTRUBING)
LET'S HAVE AN ABORTION THEME REMEMBER EL RUSHBO WITH THE 'CALLER ABORTION' WELL I'LL DISPENSE WITH THAT FOR NOW BEFORE THERE'S AN ABORTION MEN AND WOMEN SELFISHLY DESIRE SEX PLENTY OF POTENTIAL SONGS LETS USE:
"KC And The Sunshine Band"
reminding us about the 'ugh ugh' that happens before the pregnancy and abortion...
"THAT'S THE WAY I LIKE IT"--KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND
It takes me back to my past abortions happen after the message of Lust is sent out and responded to with human actions.
When it comes to Abortion the message of Lust I have communicated including the words and looks I have dished out contribute to the atmosphere that leads to selfish sex and Abortion.
THE ISSUE OF ABORTION IS ABOUT MORE THAN ABORTION, IT IS ABOUT INFANTICIDE AND EUTHANASIA, THE WAY THE ELDERLY HAVE BEEN TREATED IN CONNECTION WITH COVID-19 GOING BACK TO THE KILLING OF TERRI SCHIAVO IN MARCH OF 2005 I AM SADDENED THAT WE DEAL WITH ABORTION BUT SO MUCH MORE IS YET TO BE DEALT WITH.

BLAST FROM THE PAST-HURRICANE AGNES JUNE 1972-50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEKEND
What was going on 50 years ago in my life a summer trip with aunts, uncles and grandparents, cousins etc. became an adventure when Hurricane Agnes brought flooding to Pennsylvania the Central and Northern regions where I lived and where my relatives lived.
I went down to the river went up the steps looked over the flood wall and there was the water six inches from the top or maybe it was two or three inches.
Grandma had me take a lot of things to the upper floor of her house in anticipation of major flooding but the flood wall worked where I was kept the water out of the town.
In 1992 WBRE in Wilkes-Barre took a look back at the hurricane and it's impact much of that city flooded...VIDEO LINK
I wasn't even home to experience the flooding situation down here in southcentral PA and WGAL remembering on the 50th anniversary with this special.
You'll see a lot here including the visit of then President Richard Nixon to see the devastation with a visit to a mass evacuation center established in Harrisburg...
Flooding from the storm all over the middle of Pennsylvania and down into places like Richmond, Virginia as well.
BLAST FROM THE PAST-EXPLO 72-DALLAS
A big evangelistic event for youth in Dallas in June 1972 50 years ago meetings in the Cotton Bowl every night it was called Explo 72.

Those big meetings in the Cotton Bowl what were they like you can see for yourself...
AND IN THE HERE AND NOW IS THE 1776 RESTORATION MOVEMENT IN BERKELEY SPRINGS, WEST VIRGINIA THIS EVENING'S MEETING 75 MILES AS THE CROW FLIES FROM WHERE I AM...VIDEO LINK
ABORTION POLITICS VERSUS REALITY
Honest to G-d my repentance or 'change of heart' or 'change of attitude' etc. etc. is a heck of a lot more important than the political drama surrounding that Supreme Court decision on abortion law.
Governor Glenn Youngkin wanting credit for emulating another GOP governor Tate Reeves in Mississippi wants to have a 15-week abortion law like the one argued before the US Supreme Court ahead of yesterday's decIsion.
Wow that's conservative, yeah?
France and Spain have 14-week abortion laws so they are selling you all swampland in Florida and ocean front property in Arizona.
Republican governors like Tate Reeves in Mississippi and Glenn Youngkin in Virginia want to roll out abortion laws more liberal than the ones in France and Spain.
I mentioned earlier this "Sanctity of Human Life" issue is so much more than Abortion.
It's about my attitude concerning sex.
Do I promote lust for sex with the way I look at people, talk to other people, display my body in front of other people that can stop situations from happening that lead to abortions dare I say it.
I feel better speaking this not the drama of the "Drive-By Media" and the "Fakeservative Media" out there.
