An
odd thing about pronouns is that they're not used when one is talking
to the person concerned - so if a person demands that we use specific
pronouns for them, they aren't talking about how they want to be spoken
to, they're making requests about other people's conversations. If
someone wrongly referred to me as "he" out of spite, it'd be whilst
talking to someone else about me - and I'd find it offensive (as a
biological female conscious that I'm not pretty enough) but ultimately
it wouldn't affect me, and there are actual issues in our world for me
to think about.
Still, I
think that we need to try to avoid antagonising people, remembering
that they're human beings loved by God. If others think that we're
spiteful, they won't listen to us (and the most important thing is that
they hear about Jesus).
I didn't notice the Rolex when I saw it, but I did notice the Tassimo and thought what others have been saying.
Meanwhile,
Aid to human beings in our world who are literally starving to death
(and who could be fed for a year for roughly the cost of one person's
winter fuel payment each) was cut by Sunak.
As defined how?
Religion
that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look
after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from
being polluted by the world. (James 1:27)
Ultimately
it was Jesus' teachings that the poor should be cared for, that we
shouldn't only look to our own interests, that the powerful shouldn't
exploit others etc, that brought these ideas into Western culture
(whereas previously those such as the ancient Romans believed Might is
Right)
No
one foolish enough to endanger service people (if not the country
itself) by publicly, wrongly spouting about extrajudicial killings as he
did recently should have any position of power. He made a comment - in
his seeking his own gain - that will obviously be a boon for terrorist
recruiters.
