Moonbattery Extrodinair
I've talked about some of what I perceive as wrongs promulgated by Moonbats in my country, and the country of my birth, but apparently the Moonbats ARE a truly multi-national source of idiocy.
For a country that (rightly) prides itself on the high level of patriotism shown by members of it's citizenry, this must be a particulary embarrassing incident.
For a Church, ANY Church, to dishonor a long-time member and veteran by not allowing him the normal protocall of a military funeral as his last request shows the height of disrespect for that member and the service he rendered for "God and Country".
Things like this are occurring here in America too, I have no doubt, although I can't cite any specific incident.
The churches decry that they are losing members at large rates, and I believe that it is the mindset demonstrated by incidents like this that are part of the reason why. All too many churches have adopted the secularist mindset to the point where they are really no longer houses of worship, but merely social clubs for (politically) like minded idiots.
Thanks to Silent Running for the link. You ought to go read his take on this too...I KNEW there was a I reason I had him in my blogroll!
