justice

words by Tru posted February 17, 2008 - 6:54pm

I'm so desparently trying to reach out to all people who will take the time to listen. Where is the justice when protecting one child harms another? As a mother my mind can not even comprehend the devastation of having harm done to my children. It is a terrible thing when our children are ubducted or sexually assaulted by a person, but not all people on our National Sex Offender Registry is dangerous or even a mere threat to our communities. Why then should they be labeled as so? The truth is only a small percent of offenders are truely dangerous. Most abusers of children are family members not strangers, so why are we worried about the guy down the street? This is what I believe.

Considering the above statements, what then is the definition of truth? Is there not any absolute truth? If not, by what standard can we determine what is right and wrong?

I'm not sure if I'm going to stay - I just came to post a reply to another blog here, which, when talking about the Blessed Virgin Mary, and Joseph said "However, before they slept together..." My reply would simply be that to say "before they slept together" would imply that they DID sleep together which is contrary to the Doctrines of the Catholic Church. The blog just for the record is http://www.ourword.org/node/784

Islamophobia

words by darkdaughta posted March 25, 2007 - 12:47pm

I've been encountering a lot of liberal lefty racism and religious fundamentalism disguised as political analysis online over the time I've spent blogging among a majority amerikkkan bloggers who claim to detest their government's foreign policy as related to the middle east. People spend a lot of time discussing and debating how best to oust the village idiot from his high paying job. They debate which upper class smiling figurehead should replace him. Should the figurehead of choice be an affluent light skinned heterosexual black man? Or should they go with an affluent and stoic heterosexual white woman who has seen the inside of the big house before and liked it so much she wanted to return but this time openly at the helm?
