A Tune-up

.
Well, usually I don't say much about religion in this blog for fear of scaring away my readers that practice religions that are different than Christian, or to those that don't know a religion at all. And you know I would hate to cause any more stress to Muslims and Atheists alike. Surely they must have enough stress already.

Anyway, I feel an apology is in order. Not to the Antichrists out there, but to some leaders in American government that I have been so disrespectful to time and time again.

So, what brought me to my knees? Well, it was my very own religion. You see, during last Sunday's church service, the Preacher discussed several passages in the Bible that relate to Christians respecting their leaders. He hammered home that we (I mean me as well as all Christians) are to respect the position of a leader, whether we agree with his leadership or not. And with that, my tune-up in the subject was complete, and I added these leaders to my daily prayer list.

So, with future posts, I will not refer to our President as the "Long Legged MacMuslim" or to the Secretary of State as "The Adulterer's Wife" and I will not use mean words intended to disrespect or mock (like calling someone a prick), any of our leaders. I know words are cruel. So if I offended either them (the ones I insulted, or you (my Followers), I sincerely apologize and repent my sins.

Now, the Preacher did imply that it was OK to challenge a leader's position and values if it is done with respect. So that will be the order of the day in future posts. I'd hate to hurt any one's feelings (even the Muslims who are out to kill me), you know. And I would invite all Muslim Imans to attend my church and learn first hand just how much we respect them as leaders.

Well, enough said. But I'll say it again to the tune of a favorite song of mine. . . . I take it back; I didn't mean it; Please forget the things I said, I take it back; I'm sorry; I must have been out of my head.

  2. Interesting.

    We teach the kids (or try to) that despite what they do, those leaders are there because that's what our Sovereign God has ordained.

    Still, "may his days be few; may another take his office!" (Psalm 109:8)
