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 2020-020: Headlines: Felony Masks

There was one arrest at the anti-tyranny rally in Virginia according to American Military News.  It was for wearing a mask.  I kid you not.  That was amusing.  What was not amusing was two details that came out in the story.  Wearing a mask was a felony and the ban on masks was passed to target this rally.

In reading the article it seems that the “mask” was a bandana that the felon had over her face.  She was asked to remove it three times and then arrested.  And this is a felony?  And make special note that the Democrats passed this law just for this rally.  This got me wondering, after uncounted riots staged by Antifa, most of them wearing masks, there have been almost no arrests.  There have been no special laws passed.  So I ask, “Is this a blatant attempt by the progressives to intimidate conservatives and allow the anarchists to continue to destroy the republic?” 

That is a rhetorical question.

  1. In a sense, the ban kinda worked for us. It probably kept the ANTIFA groups away, since they couldn't hide. They would have surely started some sort of ruckus.

    1. But when did you hear about a mob of antifa rioters having anyone arrested for wearing a mask?

  2. I do not know about passed for rally or not, here in Florida wearing a mask is a felony, as in much of the south as an anti Klan law. She was also waa also warned three times and may have been infiltrator antifa to boot.

    1. I am not aware of the nuances of the Florida law but I can see this being applied to children on Halloween just like lemonade stands have been shut down because they do not have a permit.

      Yes, she was warned but the same could be said for someone being told they cannot read the Declaration of Independence in a public place.

      Yes, she could have been an infiltrator, in fact she probably was but the coverage I read showed the patriots in the crowd dealing quite well with the other infiltrators.

      Thanks for your comments.

      Grace and peace
