Future Optics

Get ready… I’m going to say something radical: There are absolutes. Gravity. Sun rising in the east, setting in the west. God – yes, even if you don’t believe in Him. Death. Men. ONLY women have babies. Absolutes. They exist. The world will not blow up by admitting it. We have a Supreme Court Justice nominee who said can’t define what is a woman. Really? And we want that person interpreting our Constitution?

“I think, therefore I am” is NOT an absolute. I can’t think I’m a tree and that makes me a tree. For our society and culture to be arguing that there are OVER 100 genders is insanity. Please do a DNA test on any person having gone through the gender “reassignment” and it will show the gender of their birth. Here’s what really ticks me off ***WARNING…MY OPINION***- boys walking around claiming to be girls having never suffered with monthly menstruation… and I mean SUFFER MONTHLY… you’re NOT a girl! You didn’t pay your dues. Not until you writhe in pain, puke up your guts, have your dad carry you to the car, drive you to the ER for a shot of demerol are you a girl! And in 29 more days, do it again. But I digress.

This is where we’ve arrived. The minority screamers have affected society so much that even though they push there are no absolutes if you don’t agree with their opinion and express your opinion – BOTH just opinions – YOU get canceled. What??? How did THAT happen? After the 2016 election, a 30 year “friend” called me and said he just knew I voted for Trump, and because I DIDN’T vote for Hillary I was voting against LGBTQlmnopblahblahblah rights so he could no longer continue to support our (30 year) friendship. Yep – just like that. That was 2016 – now it’s 2022 and it’s MUCH worse. Now the massive social media giants OPENLY flaunt the fact that you aren’t allowed outside the lines free thought or even challenging thought without being censored or locked out. The 2020 election is the blaring example and we still aren’t allowed to say the election was stolen without some type of reprimand.

As quickly as this is escalating my concern is where it’s headed. If it’s not tamped down preferably by the will of society it will fester until it blows into some type of civil unrest or even another civil war. I pray that somehow calm heads on both sides can get a grip on reality and understand we actually CAN agree to disagree and we CAN be better for that simple agreement. That’s when we can say welcome to adulthood.
