NO SYMPATHY

Under normal circumstances, we have like feelings for people who have suffered from something that was beyond their control or from some accident. A recent example was a mechanic at an auto repair shop. A gas tank exploded when a drop light accidently hit the floor and ignited the gas, the mechanic suffered burns and had to be flown to a burn unit in Nashville, Tennessee.

This is an unfortunate situation, this mechanic and his family have our sympathy and prayers. We would want others’ sympathy if we found ourselves in a similar situation. We can place ourselves in this unfortunate man’s situation. We know that this man may or may not recover enough to go back to being a mechanic. His future hangs in the balance. It will take time for his situation to work out.

Sympathy is a relational emotion. We can relate to those who are in a given distressing situation. However, sympathy cannot be given out indiscriminately. Sympathy should only be given to those who deserve it. Not everyone deserves our sympathy. Sympathy is something that should be given based upon someone’s character. While I am not aware of the mechanic’s character, we know that he was gainfully employed as a mechanic when this accident occurred. He was not involved in any immoral trade. He was doing what he should be doing, if physically able, working for a living.

The same sympathy cannot be given to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg who recently had pancreatic cancer surgery. Her decisions as a Supreme Court Justice have life and death consequences. Since she is a sinner, her decisions will be in favor of death. She is a staunch supporter of a woman’s right to abortion and she believes that abortion should be based not on privacy (Roe v. Wade), but rather on equality. Ginsburg has declared open season on the unborn. She puts the power of death in the hands of the abortion doctor when she has the power to strip these murderers of their ability to slaughter the defenseless.

She also voted with the majority in the Lawrence v. Texas case which overturned state sodomy laws. This has enabled the reproductive dead to come out in clear daylight to ply their wickedness. Abortion and homosexuality both have this in common, death. Since the spiritual precedes the visible, it is obvious the spiritual condition of Ginsburg. She is in favor of death at every turn. This is because she is spiritually dead.

Should Ginsburg die from pancreatic cancer, I will shed no tears. I have no sympathy for this woman’s situation. She is a murderer and murderers do not deserve sympathy but disdain. She will pass from this world because death in inevitable and when she does, the world will be a better place because a murderer will have died. Ginsburg is not wise enough to know that pancreatic cancer is minor compared to the eternal punishment she will be suffering and deservingly so.
