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 2014-271: The Evil of Tuck

The liberals must be getting anxious in the People’s Republik of Kalifornia.  The teachers’ union put a hit piece in my box about the Superintendent of Instruction.  This is not the first and may not be the last.  I value these pieces of information because they give me a clear indication of how I should vote.  If the California Teachers’ Association and the National Education Association tell me to vote for someone I vote for the other guy.  Simple.  Almost foolproof.

What has Marshall Tuck done that makes him evil in the eyes of the teacher’s unions?  He has taken money from people who have money.  Nasty person.  Everyone knows politicians are only allowed to take money from the teachers’ unions.

On the front they are listed by label.  He has taken money from an oil tycoon, real estate developers, an Enron trader, the Wal-Mart heirs, hedge fund investors and venture capitalists.  Now tell me, if you wanted a group of people that wanted a stronger, more prosperous California with lots of well educated graduates to take the jobs they are providing and make them money, could you think of a better group than an oil tycoon, real estate developers, an Enron trader, the Wal-Mart heirs, hedge fund investors and venture capitalists?

On the back it gives names and amounts and refers to evils such as “secret super-PAC” and “for-profit charter” schools.  These people are also guilty of “corporate education reform.”  It is interesting that at no place on the hit piece are people identified who put it out. 

Sounds like my kind of man.  Thank you CTA and NEA.

November 4 is coming.  Vote the suckers out.

  1. Among thinking folks, such pieces of crap are counter productive, but remember how few people actually think anymore.

    1. Since I work in education I am very much aware of the thinking drought.

      Grace and peace.
