There have likely been fewer children irrevocably harmed Trick or Treating under parental supervision than sent to overnight church functions under the auspices of predatory pastors and youth workers unable to keep wandering hands to themselves.

Homeless No Right To Vacant Homes

A meme posted to social media insisted, “In the U.S., vacant houses outnumber homeless people.”

And the point is?

Shouldn’t it also be asked why is the person homeless?

The way in which this statement is formulated raises a number of additional observations.

Steps can be taken to find shelter for the destitute.

However, it does not logically follow that these individuals deserve a home given to them outright without having to earn one.

A significant number of the homeless can’t seem to master the basics of bodily hygiene.

What makes you think they can handle the complexities of home upkeep?

There is also the issue of definitions. Just because a house is vacant, that does not mean that the house is not owned.

If the owners of such domiciles want to make it part of their life’s vocation to shelter the indigent, that is commendable.

However, we must be circumspect of social engineers compelling to surrender that which fanatical redistributors consider excess.

For example, if non-resident owners are forced to quarter vagrants against their will (a violation of the spirit of the Third Amendment), when those unable to handle the stresses of maintaining a home either actively or passively allow entropy to overtake a given structure, what party will step forward to rectify this damage.

Idealists might sneer down their noses at reducing this moral dilemma to matters of economics and base legalities.

However, you can’t really live inside a good intention and expect it to keep the wind or rain out, can you?

Halloween Participation Equated With Jihadist Terrorism

The Halloween season is noted for a variety of traditions.

One of the most distinct in very conservative Evangelical circles is the anti-Halloween sermon.

One such oratorical treat posted at SermonAudio by Chris Engelsma is titled “The Seven Sons Of Sceva”, an allusion to the exorcists that had their posteriors handed to them by a demonic entity after the band of necromancers invoked the name of Christ as a magical incantation despite not actually believing in the Savior.

In the sermon, it is explicitly insinuated that Christians participating in Halloween customs such as Trick Or Treat make as much rational sense as Israelis hoisting the flag of Hamas.

Yet towards the conclusion of this pulpit lucidity, this pastor that apparently does not mind going so rhetorically over the top into what some might consider questionable taste can't really bring himself to take a definitive pronouncement against Halloween and the Christian's undisputed obligations in regards to this controversial festival.

Instead the minister hems and haws as he reaches the conclusion about how all he can do is expound a set of principles with each individual believer left to decide what is best for their own family.

If a pastor ends his sermon with the modifying stipulation that his only intention is to share his interpretative perspective and that he cannot determine for you the position to adopt in regards to a particular practice where the directives of Scripture are not clearly explicit, on what grounds does he and the leadership clique of the congregation get jacked out of shape at you should you come to a differing conclusion?

As a result, the discerning are no doubt left wondering is Halloween not really as bad as they have been led to believe in hysterical tirades and even more importantly, is terrorism something that does not to be opposed all that rigorously.

Videogames No Less Moral Than Auto Repair

In an online meme, the top panel depicts a child playing video games with the caption reading, “We need less of this”.

The bottom portion of the meme depicts a child working on an engine, the caption reading, “And more of this”.

Not everyone is wired for auto repair.

The child drawn to the video games should instead be encouraged to either write the code to produce the games, formulate the narratives laying the foundations of the imaginative worlds in which the games take place, or how to run businesses specializing in making these sorts of products available.

Contrary to the latest intelletual fad among assorted varieties of populism, manual laborers are not more inherently moral than those whose vocations are not necessarily classifiable as blue collar.

Conservatives and Christians bemoan how wretched these creative works have become but stear the youth away from striving to produce an alternative option.
