The Shame Game

I see alot on the news sites links to articles about someone who complained about the virus, the stay at home orders, etc.  Then, they test positive!  I take these articles as a shaming.  I find them highly irritating.  I don't understand this need by everyone, this cut throat need, to prove everyone and anyone wrong.  So what if they protested stay at home orders?  So what if they thought they were over reaching, devastating, etc.  That's their business.  People act as though the stay at home orders were somehow going to eradicate or cure this virus.  What exactly did they think would happen when everyone went back out in public?  The virus was never eradicated, the stay at home orders were simply for the hospitals.  That's it.  They didn't want to overload the hospitals.  Which, by the way they didn't but for a few places.  The stay at home orders simply delayed the inevitable....people were still going to catch it. 

Good Lord, enough of all this incessant shaming!  Talk about creating a psychotic society.  You can't even go the grocery store anymore without fear of ending up on social media for some transgression.  Nothing is private anymore, and that is wrong.  Very wrong.  This society is sick, and not because of the virus.  It was incredibly sick before that.  Facebook started it, and it has only grown more vile and ugly and sinful since then.  Don't take part in this.  It seems that the internet has turned into one big gossip tool for Satan to accomplish his goals.  Don't fall into that trap.  I notice on Life Site News, alot of the comments are downright sinful.  The language, the bitterness and guile used by some who supposedly are Catholic is quite revealing, sinful actually.  It's best in this day and age to go by the old adage: "Silence is golden"  Try it sometime if you are tempted to say something sinful and uncharitable.

A Complaint from the Lord
