All the Women are Strong, All the Men are Good-Looking, and all the Children are Above Average...

In America, most people are below average. As I drive through town or walk through the mall I notice the following things...

* Most women's butts are too big and too low
* Most men are overweight and their clothes don't fit quite right
* Most "rebellious" teenagers all dress alike
* Most women over 19 are not attractive (not like the magazines)
* Most men are indeed ugly
* Most boys and girls under 16 are moving towards obesity
* Most "cool dudes" look stupid
* Most "hot babes" look anorexic and trashy
* Most people do not have a "nice car"
* Most people's "nice cars" are indistinguishable from "average cars"
* Most people have no sense of style in their personal dress
* Most people do not realize that the world does not revolve around them

It is obscene for so many below-ideal people to think that their opinions on anything matter to anyone. Americans live a lie that they are inherently worth anything. Just by their own existence, they believe that they have the ability to think and speak as they like, they believe that they have a right to their own bodies, they think that they have a right to live as they please. Why?

It is only our identity in Christ that gives us any meaning, any inherent worth. It is only the fact that we have been created by Him, through Him, and for Him that allows us to believe we are special. When we say that we have been "endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights," we mean exactly that. We do not gain our "inalienable rights" because we are at the top of the food chain - because somehow we were lucky enough to have evolved farthest fastest. Our rights and dignities are not derived from our biology or citizenship, but our relationship to the Creator.

It is lunacy that so many people fight so hard for rights that they do not have without the moral legitimacy of "a god" to back them up. Those who derive their rights from the State will be defeated when the nature of the state changes. They will ultimately face eternity in Hell for the nature of their disbelief.
