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 2014-269: Death Rides a Pale White Bag

The timing is perfect.  The results are already coming in.  The disaster is waiting in the wings.

I refer to the new law passed in California banning the use of plastic bags in grocery stores and other retail outlets.  In the interest of saving something we are threatening the health of the population, of which I am one.

The timing for the removal of plastic bags is perfect.  Perfect if you want to spread death and disease.  We are on the verge of a plague.  Ebola has arrived.  People are getting sick.  Our response to the spread of the virus is, “Bring their own bags into the grocery store.  Put them on the counter.  Let’s play Moonbeam Roulette.” 

Perfect.

There have already be studies demonstrating that using your own bags causes an increase in illness.  It is also perfectly logical.  We ignore it because we are worried about landfills.  So at the grocery store that has graciously provided you with sanitary wipes as you come in the door you are asked to bring the bag you have had on the floor of your car.

Democrats and health.  It sounds like a deadly combination.
