Subject: Deviancy

 

By Dr. Allen Unruh

 

In the state of Iowa a Judge ruled that it is legal for a drunk minor to be led to a stage in a strip club in front of a bunch of drunk men and strip because according to his opinion and the way the laws are written in Iowa it’s nothing more than an expression of art. The same rule would apply to a 9 year old or anyone.

 

An ounce of common sense would cause anybody to rule against this nonsense.  We are being desensitized to the reprehensible.  Too many judges think they are thinking, when they are really out to lunch.  Nothing is harder for them to see than the naked truth.  If their eyes have blinders on, they won’t see the writing on the wall.  Vices are learned without a master.     

 

For too long the subject of sex has been left to playboy philosophers, pornographers, perverts, and powerful people without principle.  It’s time this subject is approached by parents, and preachers, and people of principle.  Christians often meet, greet, eat and retreat.  It’s time we come out of the closet, because in times of moral crisis, silence is not golden,  IT’S YELLOW!     

 

Character development is the great, if not the sole aim of education.  John Adams said, “Freedom without virtue is madness.”   A person’s character is his fate.  Character is revealed by your actions in an unguarded moment.   Character is the result of 1000’s of small daily strivings.  Blaming your faults upon nature does not change the nature of your faults.  If a man finds his politics and religion don’t mix, there is something wrong with his politics.   Anything that is morally wrong cannot be politically correct.   

 

We are changing our moral code to match our behavior rather than trying to change our behavior to meet a fixed moral code.  Sometimes the cream in our society needs a little whipping.   Who so neglects learning in his youth,  loses the past and is dead for the future.   

 

It appears that law school nowadays is the opposite of sex.  Even when it’s good, it’s lousy.  If you can’t be a good example, at least try to be a horrible warning.  The legacy of Tiger Woods should be a warning to young people everywhere where that road will eventually lead.    

 

It’s time Christians draw a line in the sand and say enough is enough.  It’s time we stand up in righteous indignation.  It’s time we clean out the cesspool and start planting some flowers.  We’ve reached the stomach turning point in America.  Young people may be 25% of the population, but they are 100% of the future.  Thoughts are the seeds of action.  It’s time we raise the standard.  For the very future of freedom and civilization are at stake if we don’t.  I challenge everyone to call the legislators in Iowa, to write to this judge.  To find out what it will take to restore moral sanity to the culture right here in the heartland.
