POLITICALLY CORRECT
Politically correct. A term used to describe that
which is suitable for the public and the media. We have forgotten
about moral values. We have favored certain groups of people because
of their race, or their gender, or if they're homo or heterosexual.
We call it standing up for women's rights when we justify the legalization
of abortion, yet we forget that the baby in the mother's womb is also a
human being entitled to rights. It is not a part of her body, therefore
it is murder to kill a baby in development.
We have permitted doctors to kill their patients
if their patients are in too much pain. We have allowed our family
members to be disposed of when they are too old and have become "a burden
on society". In the name of social development we have violated the
Constitution of the United States of America, our very foundation.
We say that we have improved over the years. If legally murdering
the sick, the old and the unborn was improvement then this statement would
be true. If racism, sexism, and favoritism distributed out in the
name of multi-culturalism was development, then our society would be right
on target. But it is blatantly clear that our society is deteriorating
due to a lack of moral values and standards. How can someone say
that our nation is improving when the rates of murders, drunk driving,
abuse, illegal drug use and distribution, teen suicides, teen sexual activity
and the AIDs Virus have risen to heights far exceeding those of even a
few years ago? They say that our cities are improving. Everyday,
sleeping on park benches and old boxes, lie the homeless, whom we have
forgotten. The government gives money to people who spend it on drugs
and alcohol while there are people right before their eyes who are starving.
Either we are blind or we simply refuse to see the truth.
Our schools teach us how to use condoms and have
safe sex, but they don't teach us how to control ourselves. Many
people graduate from high school without even learning how to read a simple
sentence. High school dropouts are innumerable. Gangs are at
their peaks. People who reach out their hands to try to help are
looked down upon, because they are "violating the rights of the first amendment",
according to the warped interpretations taught to us by our society.
On our money is written "In God We Trust" while
we spend that money fighting against "radicals" and exploiting the meaning
of God. We claim that there is world peace while we go to war with
other nations. We suite our needs by making truth whatever is pleasing
to us, and making fiction whatever is not pleasing to us. We are
a greedy people who live to satisfy our passions that keep us from reality.
We eat poisonous foods and throw away that which is nutritious. We
corrupt our souls with impurities and perverseness, claiming we are having
a spiritual experience. We climb up the ladder of power, stepping
on whoever gets in our way. When we get to the top we push everyone
else as far down as possible. We are paranoid and unhappy.
We are a nation once bound together under
the liberty and unity of God, now held captive in the bondage and depravation
of Satan. We are an apathetic, self-centered society seeking drought
and famine. We are the United States of America, and we are politically correct.
