A judge has ordered a couple who runs a wedding venue business to be sent for reeducation because they turned down a same-sex wedding. They’ve also been fined $13,000.
Of course the judge is a wicked pervert. But who is going to collect their fine? Who is going to make sure they attend their reeducation?There are a team of “nice” people–our friends and neighbors who will carry out this decree. I have a couple of friends who work for the court system. I know some of the sweet little old ladies who work for the county. They’re just doing their job, right? The issue is that you can no longer work for the government and keep clean hands. The whole system is trash, but Christians just go on working for it and doing whatever they’re told.
Conservatives keep saying that their local cops and sheriff are different. There are stories of sheriffs proclaiming their love of the 2nd Amendment. But every time these guys have been tested, they’ve failed. The Harney County (Oregon) Sheriff allowed the feds to murder Lavoy Finicum. The Rowan County (Kentucky) Sheriff allowed Kim Davis to go off to federal court and jail. So good luck placing any hope in local people. They do what the feds tell them.
These local people are our friends and neighbors and they sit in the same pew as us and they hear your pastor say Romans 13 teaches strict obedience to government. Christianity and the pulpit are the problem with America. When the pulpit changes, Christianity will change and this country will change.
