ANOMALIES

Life is sometimes full of anomalies.
But there are a lot of them nowadays.

b.o. says he does not care how a bill becomes a law in Congress.
He does not care??

The leaders of both houses of Congress announce that they intend to pass a bill into law and to send it on to the President w/o voting on it.

Members of Congress in favor of the health bill proclaim that they do not care that most Americans are against the bill and/or the method chosen to make it into law.

The United States appears to downgrade the US commitment to supporting Israel.

The Episcopal Church of the United States, TEC, continues to alienate itself from the Anglican Communion and from parts of its own membership.

Politics at the national level has never, in modern times, been so blatantly in conformity with the Bismarckian advisory: Those who enjoy sausages and politics should never watch either being made.

Nuclear programs continue w/o consequences to Iran.

Celebrities in several walks of life commit atrocious acts and are forgiven, entirely forgiven by a public which no longer seems to care.

Behaviors/beliefs which were considered abnormal are morphing into general acceptance as normal – a process which can and does result in behaviors/beliefs previously considered as normal being declared to be less than normal.

Life goes on.

So do the anomalies.

Give us strength.

Thy will be done.
