Sacred Mass

When Freedom of Speech Collides with Political Correctness--Jerry Newcombe Takes the Keyboard

"Freedom of Speech," seems to cover everything BUT freedom of speech. Under that purposely misdefined civil right, one can harass family members at the funeral of one of their loved ones, insult deeply held beliefs of Christians by publicly exhibiting as 'art' an image of Christ on the Cross submerged in a jar of urine with the title, "Piss Christ" while TV programs allow strings of vulgarity such as the "F" word on prime time programs.

And yes, one can openly promote and engage in perverted sexual practices with men made up as women throwing condoms on the altar of a Catholic Church during a Sacred Mass, disrupting the service. They say that this is exercising the 'right of Freedom of Speech.' But incredibly, that is where Freedom of Speech ends. If one finds any deviant behavior repugnant and reacts to it as such, censure and even arrest is possible. Freedom of Speech has collided with Political Correctness which trumps all Freedom of Speech. My head is spinning. Guest Commentator Jerry Newcombe approaches the keyboard to help us sort it out.
