“GEE-WHIZ,” said G-Pop with an emphatic sigh.
There seems to be a series of “G” words tumbling off of people’s lips, going a bit haywire.
It starts with “GOD.”
G-Pop sat back last week and watched the more ceremonial, Druid aspects of the Christian faith take over in an attempt to temporarily get us to believe in a God who manipulates circumstances, destroys lives and “tunes” fate to produce human sacrifice, which is supposed to be an atonement for our horrific sins. The New Testament refers to Him as “God the Father,” but apparently, for a brief period, Daddy became “God the Executioner,” who went against His own abhorrence for animal sacrifice and laid a big, fat, bloody, smeary death on Jesus of Nazareth.
Then there’s “GAY.”
G-Pop wants the gay community to have all the rights, privileges and benefits as beautiful American citizens. But is it necessary for everything to suddenly be gay? There’s a sniff in the air that we should all become a little gay ourselves, to confirm that we’re open-minded enough to accept the full alphabet of the gay community, which grows by a consonant every day. LGBTQ(RSUV).
“GUNS.”
Is there anything that we, as human beings, own and admire and do not eventually use? G-Pop has been around guns in his life, and every time he did so, he wanted to shoot one. We shouldn’t be questioning whether people should have guns–but it might be good to ask what they plan on doing with them. Because guns may not kill people, but bullets do, and it is very difficult to own a gun without eventually wanting to put a bullet in it and find out how it works.
“GREED.”
G-Pop wonders if the only way to make America great again is money. Is it possible that we could be great in compassion? Was Ronald Reagan correct when he envisioned us as a city set on a hill, to be a beacon-light to the world? Or should we just present our P&L statement at the end of the year, and as long as we’re in the black, “God is good.”
“GRUMBLING.”
When did we start believing that something we despise in other people–complaining–is permissible for us to do? If you don’t want to hear G-Pop spout his grievances, then please don’t establish a lifestyle of grumbling, thinking it makes you sound grown-up, mature and thoughtful.
And finally, “GOODNESS.”
When did goodness become a joke–something to be avoided because it is naive and doesn’t understand how life really functions?
Gee-whiz. G-Pop would like to sum it up:
God is a Father, not a murderer.
Welcome, gays, to America, where you are free to love whomever you want to.
I hope you will enjoy your gun, as long as you help me keep them out of the hands of people who are bent on killing.
Would you consider joining G-Pop in being greedy for generosity?
And while you’re at it, can you set aside your grumbling and take five minutes to see if you can’t balance it with your blessings?
And finally, why don’t each and every one of us make “Oh, my goodness” a reality instead of an exclamation of bewilderment?
