I'm thoroughly fed up with all this.

I have always had the live and let live, respect how you live, never insult and so forth - I myself am strange enough that I get it.

But this whole change all the words in the language because some overly sensitive nitwit insists that it offends them - well get used to it, or you may change my mind about live and let live or respect, and I might start using words that will do more than just offend your delicate sensibilities.

The other day I saw this bit in a Lutheran church where they completely butchered the Creed to include massive amounts of trans politically correct language as to make it meaningless.

The PURPOSE of the creed - or creeds, when they were formed was to address specific religious disagreements. EACH line in the Nicene Creed - however innocuous you may think it is NOW, was written specifically to address heresies that said things like, Jesus wasn't God - or God just made him - or he never pre-existed before Bethlehem - or he wasn't really born an actual man but was more like a spirit - he never actually died - he never rose from the dead - etc. etc. etc.

It isn't and never was, a perfunctory prayer that we just repeat - it says THIS is what we believe. Now some church has decided to replace it with a "Sparkle" Creed. Ridiculous.

I was getting ready to apologize for where my mind went when I read the title, turns out it went real close to where I was at.

Is it going to end? I'm tired of the whole "words are violence" thing.

No, VIOLENCE is violence. And my words and thoughts are my own. Condemn me for committing ACTUAL violence.
I'm not yielding to the thought police.

Incidentally, I am thrilled that the kerfuffle up in Montgomery County with parents and trans crap at the schools is spearheaded - by MUSLIMS.
Go ahead - you want "violence"? FORCE them to capitulate.

Well you nailed it. Some of the reasons given for abridging our speech, I have heard in China, Russia and from friends who are Vietnamese.

And that is - your words and opinions are harmful to the state - to the peace - to the safety of others - to the feelings of your neighbors - to the security of society.

Eventually they just word it as things you are ALLOWED and NOT ALLOWED - to say.
