Are you angry about
the NFL players kneeling during the national anthem?
Make sure you fill
your regular pew this Sunday morning. Just be careful not to attend a service
where they say things like "Love they neighbor as thyself," because
you might feel a tad uncomfortable.
NO. Stay far away
from those who speak the true teachings of Jesus from their pulpits, none of
which included contrived rituals of patriotism, such as standing for a
song.
God forbid you would
begin to care more about human beings than a red, white and blue piece of
cloth that serves as a symbol.
And save some time
to show your outrage against those who kneel by burning your NFL fan gear.
That's a great way to spend an afternoon. Or, you could choose to do something
that matters, something that might help your fellow Americans. You could
express to your senators and congressional representatives that you care about
our people.
You could demand
justice.
You could demand
help for Puerto Rico.
The outrage should
be against wrongful deaths and needless suffering, not against people kneeling.
Take action:
Learn how to get in
touch with your federal, state, and local elected leaders.
Critical Thinking:
Thinking NFL players
are protesting the flag is like thinking Rosa Parks was protesting public
transportation.
