We start by taking bullet points and<br \/>\nresponding with reason not emotion. Get in this habit and you&#8217;ll do much to<br \/>\nexpose the evil that is relativism. Example;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Lets start with some<br \/>\nbasic sound bite philosophy of the left and see how it holds up shall we?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Here&#8217;s a classic,<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>&#8220;Nobody has the right<br \/>\nto tell a woman what to do with her body.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Most people stop<br \/>\nthere. I mean how can you argue such depth right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>The idiocy of the<br \/>\nstatement that the PCeople stand on assumes that this concept is self-evident.<br \/>\nWho am I to tell you what is &#8220;right&#8221; for your body?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>This somehow tries to<br \/>\nseparate our biological mechanics from our behavioral choices, as though your<br \/>\nbody is separate from your intentions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Ironically the idea of<br \/>\nlimiting what your body is allowed to do is the basis for virtually EVERY law<br \/>\nwe have! Lets play this out in real time shall we?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Next time your<br \/>\nspeeding and get pulled over try this. First, call the cop an intolerant bigot<br \/>\nfor stopping you. Then say, &#8221; how dare you tell my <i>body<\/i> how fast it can travel in a vehicle? Who are you to dictate to<br \/>\nme the velocity my <i>body<\/i> chooses to<br \/>\nmove?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>When you get out of<br \/>\njail tell me how well that worked out for ya promise?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Don&#8217;t pay for<br \/>\ngroceries anymore either. Just take what you want and leave, when the store<br \/>\ncomplains tell them they have no right refusing your <i>body<\/i> from sustenance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Of course left-thought<br \/>\nwould counter that you are infringing on someone else&#8217;s body by taking what was<br \/>\nrightfully theirs first. But whose body takes precedent and whose body makes<br \/>\nthe rules?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Of course anyone with<br \/>\na brain knows this isn&#8217;t accurate anyways since what you do with your body ends<br \/>\nwhen it begins to affect my body; for example when my body decides to kill your<br \/>\nbody we usually rule that out as an acceptable body choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Next time you run into<br \/>\na relativist ask them by what philosophical grounds they use to tell me that if<br \/>\nmy body chooses to kill yours, I shouldn&#8217;t. They will reply it&#8217;s because what<br \/>\nyou do with your body is your choice until it harms or affects others bodies in<br \/>\na detrimental way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>At this point start<br \/>\nyour sly grin or in my case a smirk and then ask them when it was they became<br \/>\npro-life?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>I live in a country<br \/>\nwhose intellectual &#8220;elite&#8221; argue for the right of a women&#8217;s body to kill<br \/>\nanother woman&#8217;s body as long as that other woman&#8217;s body is safely contained<br \/>\ninside the aforementioned woman&#8217;s body.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Apparently first one<br \/>\nout of the womb wins. The fact that we have in-vitro surgery for babies woman <i>want,<\/i> and yet at anytime this <i>same<\/i> woman can destroy this <i>same<\/i> child simply by changing her<br \/>\nperception of it so as to change its name from child to choice is the single<br \/>\nmost evil law the United States has ever thought of conceiving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><span>Slavery is a close<br \/>\nsecond of course yet that horrific chapter in our country at least allowed for<br \/>\nmost of them to live. This is the grand irony amongst the African-American<br \/>\nculture. Talk about legal lynching. The amounts of black babies aborted in this<br \/>\ncountry yearly alone outweigh every lynched black American in the Jim Crowe<br \/>\nera.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"margin-top:10.0pt\"><font face=\"'Times New Roman'\">What amazes me is when these facts are presented the secularist becomes livid and attacks your character and your motives. Nothing throws a new progressive for a loop more, than when the facts contradict there ideology.

From his Nashville stronghold, Stine is mounting his crusade against these hypocrisies, all of which are explored in his highly anticipated 4th album\/DVD, aptly titled \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcWUSSIFICATION!' \"You know what offends me?... Offended people,\" says Stine. A staunch supporter of first amendment rights and foe of political correctness, Stine asserts that rights should be universally applied. \"In a country with guaranteed rights to freedom of religion, its citizens are constantly trying to make faith in public spheres illegal, I am offended by that contradiction and want to talk about it as a comic.\" The strength of his conviction about our freedoms can be found in many places on WUSSIFICATION \u00e2\u20ac\u201c from \"Merry Christmas Too!\" (the right to celebrate religion) to \"At Least We're Not France!\" (the responsibility to take action as a country) to \"Spank\" (the ability to discipline our children the way we see fit). What would cause the wussification of Brad Stine? \"I hope that nothing ever wussifies me to deny my own personal beliefs,\" he says. \"Brainwashed wussies have been taught that standing up for yourself and defending your personal point of view makes you a close-minded hate monger.\" Stine stops short of defending his point of view as the ONLY one, adding \"...one must also be respectful of dissenting belief while supporting their own.\" He is, after all, an inclusive figure who trains his comedy to attack ideas, not the people who embrace them. Stine's faith forces him to acknowledge the respect and dignity of all\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 even the wussies with whom he disagrees! Stine models his approach to comedy after legendary practitioners that he has known and loved over the years. Despite George Carlin's disdain for theistic beliefs, he has been a big influence on Stine. \"I always enjoyed Carlin for turning the tables on culture. He is an excellent writer that has endured for decades.\" More current comedic touchstones are Brian Reagan, Paula Poundstone, Jim Gaffigan and Monty Python, among others. Fear not, true believers \u00e2\u20ac\u201c with his brand new album, Brad Stine is here to save the world from WUSSIFICATION \u00e2\u20ac\u201c one politically-correct, offended person at a time!\"","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/author\/bstine"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/223"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/godscomic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
