What Does That Mean?
"What does that mean, “outrages upon human dignity”? That’s a statement that is wide open to interpretation."
-President of the United States, George W. Bush
It's official. Our president is certifiably insane. One cannot express how dangerous of such a statement. Senator Lindsey Graham presents a fantastic explanation of what it means to engage in outrages against human diginity. Do anyone else feel the institution of self-government slipping away? Anyone who addresses the serious flaws in the logic and practice in the war on terror is immediately labled "unAmerican" or "Traitor". Does one really have to apologize for recognizing the humanity in
God's creation? By questioning the intent of "outrages upon human dignity", our president is inherently asking what does it mean to be human. When is someone a human being and when are they just an animal? A human being is a perfect creation made in the image of its creator that brought about its own destruction through selfish curiosity. Yet the creator rescued his creation by sacrificing a piece of himself in his only son so that all of his creation could be spared the torture of death.
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.(Jn 13:34)"- Now, what does that mean?
