Today’s Sermon: For What It’s Worth
As everyone in the world watches the US Presidential campaigns and elections what more likely question to come up than that of money? We all know that politicians are loaded, and this time I’m referring to loaded as having lots of money, and not all the other things they’re loaded with like drugs, booze, interns, cigars, sneaky officials in their pockets, or any of that. Just plain old money! So just what does the Omnipotent Being think of money? Well, Dorothy Parker hit the nail on the head as far as I’m concerned! Look who God gave the money to… the shit-slinging, turd-winging, skanky-wanking, tomahawk-chipper-shredders-from-Troybuilt, sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigots. It says a lot.
I’m not just saying anyone who has any money is bad… or even that everyone who has vast amounts of money is bad. There are always exceptions to every rule, but that’s just it. They are EXCEPTIONS! The exceptions are typically hard to find too, so that makes them even more exceptional… I’m sure I could find someone who has lots of money and who uses it wisely and nicely… it’d just be a bit of a search… I guess
Angelina Jolie does fairly nice things with her fortune in
Cambodia, and
Lucy Lawless and Renee O’Connor and crew help out with lots of good causes. There are tons of others I’m sure… wonderful exceptions…there’s that word again…
So when you’re thinking about the likelihood of someone being honest, especially in politics, take a quick second and note the cash they throw around versus the cash they spend on humanitarian, world saving causes and aid programs. Look at their use of funds with regards to both their “personal” spending and their “job” spending and see just who is getting the benefits from it… are they benefiting themselves, or are they helping others? Are they the exceptions or was money their “God Given Right?” There’s the question…
Now remember we here at the Third Church only charge $3.99 for a full cyber breakfast… even with vegemite.
We’ve taken you on a trip all the way around the world for free… How nice is that…?
It’s just too bad that Sister Jo-Mamma can’t run for president. That would be one hell of an adventure!
