Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2013-324: Headlines: An Obamacare Apostate Is Formed

He was all for free health care until he realized TANSTAAFL.

At the beginning of a Drudge Report link called “Obamacare's winners and losers in Bay Area” the following comment is made,
“Cindy Vinson and Tom Waschura are big believers in the Affordable Care Act. They vote independent and are proud to say they helped elect and re-elect President Barack Obama.” 
They are true believers but what we call LIV, or Low Information Voters.  Or maybe they are just typical Progressives who believe that someone else will pay for all their dreams.

Their tune changes at the end of the article when the dirty truth starts to reveal that they are the ones considered rich by the administration.
“‘Of course, I want people to have health care,’ Vinson said. ‘I just didn't realize I would be the one who was going to pay for it personally.’”
No.  They thought someone else would pay for it.  Someone like you and me.  Pain can be a great teacher.

Maybe the Affordable Care Act will be worth it after all.

  1. We tried to warn them for years, but they wouldn't listen. Now they're priviledged to put their money where their minds have been.
