Is it diversity or exclusionary?

| June 29, 2023 1:00 AM

Over the past year, I’ve seen all these signs in people’s yards proclaiming diversity, inclusion and love among other things.

Much of this reminds me of ancient Rome. Rome had a very diverse culture in terms of religion. They accepted all gods, except one, the Christian God. Even the Jews were accorded special privileges which exempted them from burning incense to the pagan gods and the emperor. Later on, even the Jews were stripped of that privilege.

It seems that a new religion is sweeping America which allows for all kinds of iniquity, deviant sexual behavior, drug use on a wide scale, murder of whole classes of citizens (unborn children) and birth control. If all of these are now acceptable, that means that those whose worldview is the opposite of this, Christians, will be rejected, discriminated against and even imprisoned.

This is where we are headed. This behavior is not diverse, it is exclusionary.
