He that is without sin

By Timothy D. Naegele[1]

Many Americans and those of other countries may question why Donald Trump was “cavorting” with a porn actress named Stormy Daniels[2], especially when his wife Melania had just given birth to their son Barron. Trump denied that the liaison ever occurred, but for sake of discussion let’s assume it did happen. Why would any man (or woman) run the risk of getting STDs[3] from anyone—much less a bimbo?

Jesus’ words in the Bible about a woman accused of adultery are relevant:

So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.[4]

The morality in Hollywood and Washington, D.C.—and other power centers of the world—approaches that of Sodom and Gomorrah.[5] Whether the fugitive from American justice Roman Polanski is cited, or the serial abusers Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby or Jeffrey Epstein, any sense of morality does not exist. The same thing was true of John F. Kennedy.[6]

Will voters this November be dissuaded from voting for Trump because of what the New York jury decided? What about Joe Biden’s morality and that of his son Hunter and other members of the “Biden Family Crime Syndicate”? Jesus’ words echo down through the ages; and let’s hope they govern this political contest.[7]

It would be nice if all of us were saints, but we aren’t. Only God is perfect.
