Richmond Writer Michael Paul Williams Rams Battered Narrative Into Wall Of Truth. Part 2
"...Hanover School Board, which too frequently fails to disguise its antipathy toward residents who do not share its agenda." OPINION
“That certainly seems to be the case on the Hanover School Board, which too frequently fails to disguise its antipathy toward residents who do not share its agenda.”
Remember when MPW empathized and gave voice to people objecting to renaming Lee Davis High School or removing statues in Richmond? Neither do I. They didn’t share his agenda, so he dehumanized them as “white nationalists” and even dismissed their residency as unimportant! The idea Hanovarians have valid reasons for their concerns and beliefs never dawns on Williams, who is too busy cramming his favorite red herrings into as few paragraphs as possible.
You can take a Richmonder out of Richmond,
but you can’t take Richmond out of a Richmonder.
The ‘case’ is that virtue signaling and slandering white folks’ character will land you a job with the Richmond paper, which requires finding new scapegoats- enter Monolo, Coleman, Redd, and most Hanover citizens.
Our nation's autocratic drift has a terrifying number of folks willing to reelect an amoral man who has pledged to pardon "a large portion" of participants in an insurrection he stoked. Some folks at that violent uprising on Jan. 6, 2021, carried signs that read, "JESUS IS MY SAVIOR; TRUMP IS MY PRESIDENT."
Everything this man writes smacks of hubris and autocracy, projecting and stoking fear and division, and he does it in the name of his manmade ‘Jesus’ and savior, Joe Biden. No video exists showing DJT "stoking" an insurrection. But that little oversight won’t stop our bloviating self-righteous race-baiting crusader with his self-serving license to redefine all things religious and political.
"This insane idolatry coincides with a decline in the percentage of Americans who call themselves Christian. While nine out of 10 Americans were Christian 50 years ago, that number is now closer to two-thirds. Christians in the U.S. could fall below a majority by 2070, according to the Pew Research Center."
The insanity is that it is the narratives of people like Williams that drove people out of the pew. People left churches as pulpits were surrendered to liberal ideology preaching the mush god. They do not want to hear a social justice gospel from Karl Marx or Screwtape. Tearing down the pillars of society, including religious expression, was and still is a goal of Marxism, pursuing all the other talking head positions in society. People know their Master's voice, and it ain't coming from liberal guys (did I just gender assume) like Williams. The liberal Presbyterians, where this man is allowed to “preach,” has lost tens of thousands of members by handing the pulpit over to people with his views.
"This toxic form of Christianity is at loggerheads with a pluralistic, multicultural democracy. The politicians who talk so much about "indoctrination" are projecting their agenda and creating a potentially hostile work and school environment for those who do not share their religious beliefs."
Two thousand years of objective history show Christianity has spread to every culture, race, and nation in the world- this is real diversity and multiculturalism, not the saccharin variant Williams peddles. Williams finds all orthodox Christianity toxic. You can see why this is nothing new by reading The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis.
Williams and his co-religionists want a lock on the indoctrination of your children by controlling School Boards. Preaching a race-baiting Jesus that would give them sexualized books in schools so they’ll believe they can change their biology by speaking their word and making an oblation of their flesh on the altar of political correctness and surgical malpractice. Hostility and projection permeate every word of his screed.
“Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community. Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy.
"Elected officials who elevate a single faith above others are failing a basic American test. They are unworthy of overseeing public education."
As I mentioned in Part 1, 'religion' in the 1700s among the colonies didn't mean Animalism to Zoroastrianism but pertained specifically to Christian denominations, and they elevated God in the public square. Christian religious doctrine and wisdom are the primary sources for creating history's most pluralistic and tolerant government- our United States of America—only those seeking its overthrow work to separate this Country from its religious roots. The very model of our 3-fold form of government was taken from Isaiah 33:22 by James Madison.
No sentence in this propaganda piece is without projection, fallacy, distortion, or falsehood or demonstrates a single article of the Constitution that prohibits the profession of faith in a public place. The Founders were religious men, and it never dawned on them to model any less than God’s example. He directed the Apostles to preach everywhere, before prelates, in streets, temples, or even a pulpit in a heretical church. Hopefully, someday, that will happen in his church. Only Williams and his allies attempt to pervert the meaning of the Constitution and Scripture to prevent people from availing themselves of god’s gift of speech.
"Johnny Redd was appointed to the Hanover School Board a year ago, following a newspaper interview that telegraphed his religious zealotry and hostility toward transgender students and classroom lessons about systemic racism. His rise solidified a board majority fixated on divisive culture-war issues and score-settling over the removal of Confederate names from two county schools."
Never miss an opportunity to project, he invokes the dead Confederate boogieman. Yet, he is fixated on the culture wars, wanting to force his bigoted and perverted views on Hanover and hoping to get a majority to enforce those views. Every word is proof enough that Leftists all aspire to be tyrants.
"Nowadays, so-called conservatives love the Constitution, at least in theory. But in practice, their application of the document is spotty and selective."
Liberals prefer projection to edification. No theory is needed to understand how much they hate the Constitution and orthodox Christianity because both stand between them and their desire to be lords over us. Just read the 45 Goals of Communism; it’s all there. Equality is not the goal; supremacy is, and the 1st Amendment and verses like 2 Peter 1:20 stand in the way of their constant word-smithing to pull the wool over all our eyes.
"There is no oath to the Constitution that cannot be tossed aside in the name of power politics, or for an insurrection to overthrow the results of a presidential election. And while the Second Amendment — a passage that begins with "a well-regulated militia" — is interpreted broadly, literal words in the First Amendment are disregarded.
Williams is about power politics, projecting and leveling judgment through baiting race, politics, and religion. He never calls out insurrections and violence conducted by BLM and Antifa- burning neighborhoods, cities, and government buildings- because, in his mind, you and I are guilty of someone else’s sin, which gives him license to covet power and lie. I think he is the worst type of hypocrite, broadly painting anyone in the way of his rigid ideology as an ‘______-ist’- fill in the blank with the ‘ism’ de jour.
No books are being banned- you want soft porn for your kids, Williams? You can buy them on Amazon or any number of sources. The only one wanting control over what others read is you, and your article reeks of censorship through the control of the government. No one is telling anyone they can’t believe they are a table lamp- but if you are a dude, you have no right to enter a girl’s locker room and expose yourself. Williams, the extremist, wants to convince you extremism is normative and normality is extremism. Does he have a devil? No one is hating on anyone except Williams.
Claiming to preach? He wants your schools full of things that defy God and nature. Jesus asked a Pharisee much like him, “If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe if I tell you of heavenly things?” Who could trust anyone to preach rightly of heavenly things when they reject or align with those who reject basic biology (the created order), want Sodomites grooming children in drag, and even kill innocent life in the womb? You can’t be born again if you were deprived of the right in the womb.
The 1st Amendment is immutable and supreme because free speech proceeds from an immutable and Supreme God, and one cannot lose that right by holding office or entering a public building. Every subsequent Article is subject to and in harmony with the First.
Williams's hit piece is no battering ram; it’s just pushing the same old load of Leftist dung from an old goat.
