I was told more than a couple times at work, "Ha-ha, you got jokes!"

Our kids smiled. "Two wrongs don't make a right, but two Wrights made an airplane!"

But they didn't fly it in the face of 'morality'.

It also does not matter if two people agree that something is right. or if a majority agrees with it ...right & wrong should not be subjected to majority rule.

Who does decide what is right and what is wrong?  And how is it measured?  Is a plumb-line used?  Or is the standard adjusted according to society's whims?

If it is agreed that God decides what is right and wrong, is it also agreed that all who believe that to be true ...should truly follow that?

I used to read comic books. Each of us followed certain favorite characters ...and those certain behaviors & traits were developed by the 'originator'.

Our own children were introduced to various characters ...inclusive of Rabbit, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, and ...of course, Pooh.



Each had distinct characteristics.  And I think, think, think ...it would have upset the children if I would have told them that Eeyore was the bouncy one, and Tigger's tail was pinned on.  Or think, think, thinking about it ...I believe they would have just laughed and corrected me.

Society often acts in a similar fashion.  They often laugh at those who tell them about God's character; and some people get upset ...even mad.

Yes, I've got jokes ...but, this is no laughing matter.  If you insist upon majority rule, then consider this ...in Congress, a 'supermajority' is two-thirds.  Well, two-thirds of the angels did well ...while the other third did not.  Where does that leave you?

Don't let fallen moods lead you to fallen spirits.  Only the cruelest would say the joke's on you.
