Just as “The Avengers” really isn't the greatest superhero film of all time despite the press accounts claiming as such, neither is Agents Of SHIELD the best show of the fall season. While entertaining, the plot twists of The Blacklist are much more exciting and intriguing. Couldn't the show's wardrobe department have put a little more effort into designing a traditional SHIELD uniform instead of having everyone with the exception of the Asian chick running around in their street cloths? Most fans already know that the series takes place in the same universe as many of the Marvel blockbuster films. So perhaps producers should stop the name dropping in what seems to be nearly every scene of characters that will likely never appear on the program. The strained effort is even more annoying than the deliberate closeups on the Sherlock Holmes drama of characters using Microsoft Windows 8 software.
On The Fox Report with Bret Baier, isn't it a bit of overkill to feature George Will and Charles Krauthammar on the same panel since both of these pundits essentially represent a nearly identical variety of establishmentarian conservatism? One ponders if a commentary superstar such as Will was added to the Fox lineup in the attempt to counter CNN's resurrected Crossfire. The announcement of his appearance prompted me to forget all about my 6:30 PM viewing preference.
Certain theologians are arguing that federal employees and retirees unsettled by their financial prospects during the government shutdown are serving government rather than God. So if someone working in the private sector expressed similar concerns, would they be condemned for serving Mammon? Not everyone can be a missionary capable of standing before a congregation and guilt trip the assembled into emptying their wallets into the collection plate. Furthermore, from what sector of the economy does the tribute flowing into ecclesiastical hands originate anyway?

If the Obama regime is asserting control over monuments and memorials that the federal government barely gave second thought over before when times were relatively good, just think what these would be totalitarians will attempt to seize when things really do start to fall apart. Today, it's construction cones blocking access. Just wait until the entire interstate highway system is shutdown or houses are seized to pay off the national debt or you receive the equivalent of a jury duty notice informing you of compulsory labor in a Chinese slave factory.

During the government shutdown, it was reported that the technicians of the National Hurricane will continue to monitor atmospheric conditions. However, the agency's public affairs specialists were categorized as non-essential and were not responding to inquiries. Obama is probably in the White House conducting ritualistic libations to whatever demonic entity he is in league with hoping to conjure a storm to wipe out the United States while forbidding meteorologists in the federal employ from warning the American people.
Under Obamacare, if most forms of insurance cover 100% for breast exams for women, why is only between 70-80% covered for prostate tests? Is a man that dies from prostate cancer less dead than a woman that dies from breast cancer? And what of the small number of men that develop breast cancer? Will their costs to combat this disease be covered to the same percentage or are their penises too large?
In coverage of a ship of African migrants damaged off the coast of Italy, it was pointed out that one of the fatalities was pregnant. But if the unborn inside an expectant mother is just at best, part of her body and at worst a disease, why weren't we informed of the passengers lost that also suffered from spastic colon or spinal stenosis?

It is claimed that the Constitution forces elected officials to be paid their salaries during the government shutdown. So apparently there are provisions of the federal charter that the President and Congress are principled enough not to violate. Why can't an amendment be set into motion to correct this oversight?
On the 10/1/13 episode of Crossfire, Senator Debbie Stabenow claimed that on the first day of Obamacare availability five times as many attempted to access the program's website than any day on the Medicare website. That's because Medicare is targeted towards the elderly adverse to spilling their guts online whereas Obamacare appeals to youthful deadbeats so hooked on the web that they have to post a status update every time they take a bowel movement.

Is Rick Santorum A Crypto-Luddite?
Santorum shared that the electric light central to the storyline symbolizes man's over-reliance on technology and lack of reliance on God.
But without the electric light, isn't it doubtful that the cinematic tools would have been developed whereby the artists working under Santorum would be able to share this narrative vision with a wider audience?
More importantly, weren't the candles he lionizes as a beatifically superior conveyance of illumination at one time the cutting edge of technology?
As such, would the holier thing to do have been to simply sit in the dark waiting for the sun to rise the next morning in compliance with God's timetable rather than man's?

Theocrats Equate Enunciating Meteorological Preferences With Blaspheming God
So where does degree of nitpicking end?
Taking this idea to its logical conclusion, is it murmuring against God to express dislike for a certain food that He has created?
It is an accepted postulate of Christian historiography that empires and potentates cannot rise without God allowing them to in the sense of at least not doing anything to block the ascension of these onto the world stage.
Thus, is one spitting in the face of the Almighty each time one expresses dissatisfaction with an elected or government official?
Often, those holding to this strict of a view regarding the sovereignty of God also believe in the idea of theocracy or theonomy where the Bible does not merely serve as a source inspiring the moral principles enacted into law but rather in its totality serves in its totality as the non-negotiable legal code.
So in such an idealized regime, would those verbalizing otherwise innocuous preferences about the prevailing atmospheric conditions be arrested for further interrogation?
If believers are to be so pent up and stifled that they can't even mention how they really feel about the weather, they are going to end up with stress ulcers and mental depression.
But I guess the upshot of that is that the clergy will be provided with additional fodder to heap condemnation up the congregation for the purposes of sewing the seeds for further spiritual manipulation.
If this is how and to the extent to which a pastor should control a church, the minister should not be dumbfounded when hardly sticks around the parish for very long.
