This past primary runoff day Texas bit a bullet for the country. We had a runoff between Ken Paxton and Senator John Cornyn. The Talking Heads like to think that Cornyn had a chance but I’m glad to report that at least for this one time the citizens were paying attention. Paxton won by over 20%. Based on what I felt, I thought it was a forgone conclusion, but you never know who’s counting the ballots.
So now the media is moving on and trying to act like Paxton’s rival in the general election has a chance. He probably has less a chance in the general population than Cornyn had with the Republican base. The Democrat is a basket case. The question is will Texans rest on their laurels and figure they’ve done enough or will they keep fighting to bring the country back to its roots.
Now that the primaries are over there’s really not much we can do to improve things. In two more years when the elections come around we will have another chance to clean out some of the RINOs. I’m hoping that even though Trump can’t run, he will be very vocal and who you will endorse.
I hope that we have an ongoing statement of don’t mess with Texas. I would love to extend that to Don’t Mess with US.

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.
