Why can’t we call idiots “idiots”?

 

Idiot is defined as: “a stupid person.” The Lord says of false prophets in Matthew 7:16, “Ye shall know them by their fruits.” He goes on to say that a good tree brings forth good fruit and a corrupt tree cannot bring forth good fruit. “Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.” I think that this nugget of wisdom can be applied to a lot of people and situations. We have a lot of idiots running around causing problems. So why can’t we just say it like it is? Why can’t we call an idiot, an idiot? If the shoe fits, they should wear it, even though they might have it on backwards. An idiot is an idiot. We have village idiots. We have county idiots. We have state idiots. And we surely have national idiots.

 

Unfortunately, there are many idiots in government and policy making positions. We know them by their fruits. We have a “president” who says Islam historically has made positive contributions to America, and speaks of the US Navy–idiocy–the US Navy was formed by Thomas Jefferson in response to Islamic pirates attacking our ships and enslaving our citizens. We have a Secretary of State who defiantly responds to Congressional questioning over how the Benghazi deaths occurred with “What does it matter?” Idiocy! We have another Secretary of State blaming Israel for blowing up the peace process, using “Poof, that was sort of the moment.” Idiocy.

 

We have an Attorney General who won’t enforce drilling, marriage, voting, or immigration laws, and sells guns to Mexican drug lords on purpose–idiocy! We have a Court system that refuses to strike down socialized healthcare, calling it a tax; also justifying the killing of over 40 million unborn as protection of privacy; and upholds homosexual rights over Constitutional rights to freely exercise your faith–idiocy! We have a government that destroys lives and livelihoods over dessert turtles, blunt nosed lizards, and prairie chickens that nobody has ever seen–idiocy! We have towns and cities going bankrupt because they can’t afford the services they provide–idiocy!

 

We can see that there is no shortage of idiots. And apparently they have been around for a long time. 1 Samuel 21 tells the story of how King David fled Saul into the hostile land of the king of Gath. Verse 13 says of David, “And he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down upon his beard.” And the king said in verse 15: “Have I need of mad men, that you have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence?” Do we have need of more idiots? The idiots seems to get in control of things because those of us who are non-idiots are so busy trying to make ends meet to pay for the laziness of the idiots that we don’t have the time to get rid of the idiots–idiocy! 

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
