‘Only Women Have Babies’? It’s Hate!

Bad enough I have to write about this trash. No way I’m gonna illustrate it, too. Here’s a picture of a nice axolotl instead.

The international Far Left Crazy continues its war against reality. The latest: a spokeswoman for a charity “doula” (midwife) service in Britain has been forced to resign her position… for saying only women, not men, give birth to babies (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/birth-coach-hounded-out-of-profession-by-transgender-activists-for-claiming-only-women-can-have-babies).

This’d be funny if it weren’t so nerve-wracking to have loony people running things.

Anyway, she said it, “transgender activists” complained, and Doula Inc. left her twisting in the wind.

Lynsey McCarthy Calvert at least preserved her dignity, in these words:

“I am not a ‘cervix owner.’ I am not a ‘menstruator.’ I am not a ‘feeling.’ I am not defined by wearing a dress and lipstick. I am a woman: an adult human female.”

Another spokescoward for Doula Inc. said Doula is prepared even to make “changes in the language we use, if we believe it is necessary to make the Doula UK community more welcoming and supportive.” But obviously not “welcoming and supportive” to normal sane people.

What a load of ****.

Startling Discovery! Jail Really Works

Walter Williams yesterday reported an eye-popping, jaw-dropping fact.

From 1991 through 2017, thanks to higher rates of incarceration, our country’s violent crime rate fell from 758 cases per 100,000 people to 382 (https://townhall.com/columnists/walterewilliams/2019/09/04/criminologists-mislead-us-n2552448)–a decrease of almost 50%.

Putting the bad guys in jail reduces the crime rate. Dramatically. Wow! Who would’ve thought it?

Well, professional criminologists wouldn’t have permitted themselves to think it. It’s amazing, how hard they work to remain blind and deaf to the freakin’ obvious. But Dr. Williams reports that in the field of criminology, liberals outnumber conservatives, 30-1. And no liberal ever lets facts get in the way of narrative.

According to a study by the National Academy of Sciences, from 1928 to 1960 the crime rate rose slowly every year; but after the 1960s, and into the 1990s, the rates “exploded.” The rates only came down when courts stopped letting criminals walk and got serious about taking them out of circulation.

So now, today, Democrats increasingly whine about “mass incarceration” and want murderers, armed robbers, rapists, gangsters, and thugs sprung out of jail. Translation: They want them voting for Democrats in the next election. If they can’t get that, Bernie Sanders has suggested bringing the voting machines into prison and letting incarcerated felons vote while doing time.

They even have the gall–really, this can’t possibly be sincere: no one’s that stupid–to complain that putting goons in jail for violent crimes, and keeping them there, “took minority men out of their neighborhoods” and hurt minority families. I can’t believe anybody said that.

I wonder when Democrats will start calling Walter Williams a white supremacist.

People who hate truth hate those who tell the truth.

‘The Postmodern War on Truth: 1992’ (2016)

Already by 1992, Michael Crichton warned us that the line between fact and fiction was getting rather blurry.

The Postmodern War on Truth: 1992

It’s been done on purpose, by wicked and ungodly people, many of whom are not quite sane. The poison brewed in our colleges and universities always seeps out into the rest of our society, tainting it, then maiming it.

“Educating” ourselves to death… but I guess it depends on what “is” is.

‘Your Truth, My Truth, and the Progressives’ Magic Trick’ (2015)

When are normal people going to get tired enough of this to put a stop to it?

https://leeduigon.com/2015/12/11/your-truth-my-truth-and-the-progressives-magic-trick/

Yep, there ain’t no true truth, but somehow their truth always wins and ours always loses–and we always wind up paying for it.

But if you don’t want God’s truth, then you’re stuck with man’s–and that ain’t good.

‘Honor God’s Word’ (2015)

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

We love God’s Word because it doesn’t change, no more than He does. It challenges us to change ourselves, but the high ideal to which it points us never changes.

So we don’t have to edit ourselves every cotton-pickin’ day to make sure we conform to the latest crapola off the campus.

Can You Believe They Said This With a Straight Face?

Some of the things liberals say–when you hear them, you don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

In an interview on PBS with Charlie Rose, Hillary Clinton said, “Hopefully Trump hasn’t ordered the killing of people and journalists” (http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/09/26/hillary-clinton-trump-i-hope-he-hasnt-killed-journalists-and-racist). I thought journalists were people, too; but she said it, not me.

Let’s see… who is most often rumored to have left a long trail of dead bodies in his/her wake–Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump? Far be it from me to say the stories are true. But they’re out there, and most of us have heard them. You’d think it was a subject she wouldn’t want to bring up.

Michelle Obama comes a close second for having said, “Any woman who voted against Hillary Clinton voted against their own voice.” The comment gives us a peek into the jumbled contents of a poorly-lit mind. Achtung! All women must vote for Hillary! Because she too is a woman! More or less.

I believe Democrats say things like this because they have cut themselves off from the living God as the source of all truth, and have listened to too many collidge prefessers and other interllecturals declaring that there’s no such thing as truth and the only thing that counts is getting your way, politically. It puts them into a position in which they get to thinking they can be gods themselves, if they play their cards right.

It is to our nation’s shame that we have ever let such persons as these obtain power and influence over us. We really ought to try very hard not to let that happen anymore.

Wow Your Friends with These Astounding Facts!

“Unknowable” had a cool idea last night: just whip up any old thing that would stretch the credulity of a three-year-old, call it “settled science,” and presto–you’ve got a liberal column.

We can do this because liberal “facts” (e.g., “Socialism really works”) are not facts at all. Denying that there’s any truth, they can’t very well have facts. Instead, there’s only whatever helps them get their way–this they label “truth”–and whatever doesn’t. They will deny that they’re denying anything, if that’s what they think they need to do at the moment.

With this in mind, we present the following eye-popping false facts, which you can trot out for any conversation and impress your hearers with your wealth of esoteric knowledge.

*That little “Speedy Alka-Seltzer” in all those old commercials was played by Katharine Hepburn.

*The Hawaiian language was only invented in 1960, in support of Hawaii’s statehood movement. Prior to that, Hawaiians all spoke Welsh.

*The world’s largest insect is the Laotian Burping Mantis–four to five feet long and weighing, when full-grown, sixty to eighty pounds.

*In the Middle Ages it was very common for men of the nobility to propose marriage while standing on stilts.

*The gall bladder is the only organ in the human body that functions equally well when turned inside-out.

There you go–run a few of these up the flagpole and see who salutes ’em. If your hearers are prepared to accept these assertions as fact, you should be thinking about starting a career in higher education, advertising, or politics.

The Grandmommy of All ‘Fake News’

Contemplate this Newsweek cover.

Democrats are busy crafting a “narrative,” polite word for “BS,” that they lost the election because all them ordrinary dum peple in America were tricked by “fake news” into voting for Donald Trump instead of “Careless” Clinton. By “fake news” they mean news provided by persons and organizations other than the Democrats’ paid henchmen who insist on calling themselves the mainstream media.

Like Newsweek, for instance. They’re pretty mainstream. Dig that cover.

Okay, sometimes a newspaper has a file of stories already written that can be plugged in, in a hurry, if something happens. Stories with headlines like “Everybody Dies!” So they were all set to go, celebrating a Clinton victory.

Only this was not the first time they came out with a cover revealing their–shall we say “fanatical”?–bias. Dig this one.

It takes a special kind of stupid to liken a sleazy, good-for-nothing politician to Jesus Christ Our Lord; but it’s just that kind of rarefied stupidity that our “non-fake news,” our utterly discredited mainstream news media, have to offer. And this can be explained theologically.

People who do not believe in God–secular utopian liberals, say–have to believe in something: so they believe in, and worship, themselves and their leaders. People who do not believe in God, naturally, have no hard and firm grasp of truth as truth. To them, “truth” is only whatever benefits them politically.

We are told that Newsweak has tried to “quickly distance itself” from that Madam President cover. I don’t know how you distance yourself from your own magazine.

But I think I really do know “fake news” when I see it–and brother, this is it.
