Can They Possibly Not Know What They’ve Done?

New Orleans had a statue of Robert E. Lee. They took it down, to show how virtuous they are. And just to make sure all us deplorables got the message, they replaced Lee’s statue with this…thing: a naked woman with a big serpent coiling around her body (https://www.art-insider.com/simone-leigh-sculpture-replaces-robert-e-lee-statue-in-new-orleans/).

Hello? Hello! Anybody there? I’m trying to find someone who’s read the Book of Genesis and knows about the woman and the serpent. (Not even a busy signal. Just static.)

They were to have moved this artifact a few days ago, I don’t care whether they’ve done that or not. It would have been just as questionable to let it stand for five minutes as for six months. They say it was to “celebrate” African something-or-other. But the story in Genesis is older than anything from Africa.

Enough people in America have lost their heads to put the whole nation in danger.

Every evil in the world springs from this: the desire to be as God, and the delusion that you can actually do it.

The Will to be as God

Whether it’s a single disgusting murder for some forgettably trivial reason, or mass murder perpetrated by a communist government against its own people, it all goes back to “can decide good and evil for myself! Just like the devil promised!”

This is why we need humility, and why it’s a virtue.
