Casual Articles - Is Political Correctness the 'New Righteousness'?
Is Career Planning Important wounds, roam free doing community service.I’ve been around the workforce for quite a few years - 32 years in fact. I’m currently happily employed as a Principal Consultant : Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) in a major government department and often wonder how I came to be in this senior role. One thing I can say with certainty is that when I left school, this was not on the horizon!I do remember spending a lot of time thinking about likely career paths, with the expectation of becoming a Clinical Psychologist and I completed a university degree with a major in Psychology. It seemed logical that there would be a neat and predictable progression along the path to becoming a Psychologist. However, life is full of twists and turns, often leading to unexpected outcomes. Kind of m Now the question is, is this new or have we seen a record of it all before? Here below is what The Lord Jesus Christ had to say about the same type of governing system - a governing system that still rules us today; fanatical on the letter of the law but totally devoid of the Spirit of the law. A totally bankrupt, hypocritical corrupt system of governance with no justice for the people they are meant to serve. Matt 23:23-28 "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. 24 Ye blind guides, which s Man is now God and Self-righteousness rules, OK!!?? The 21st Century Pharisaical Religion of Political Correctness! Are we now ruled by 21st Century Pharisees, the Pharisees of Political Correctness, a new legalistic religion, the new self-righteousness of men and women who enforce their self-righteous agenda on the rest of us by and through their politicised 'thought police'? Here is a recent example or the end result of the 'new righteousness' of the powerful self-righteous elite that now 'governs' the United Kingdom - in action: A man, albeit very thoughtless and irresponsible, drives his car after having had only 2 hours sleep in the previous 24 hours; he falls asleep at the wheel of his car and collides with a cyclist thereby killing him. This avoidable accident correctly lands the man in court who is then incorrectly handed down a five year jail sentence. The accident took place on a fast dual carriage way where it could be reasonably argued that this is the type of road, much like a motorway (freeway), that cyclists are and should be barred from using. Always remember too that, in the UK, cyclists do not pay road tax as do motorists. The driver was travelling at 60 mph - within the speed limit. Whatever way we look at this, this man did not set out to deliberately kill, maim or injure anyone. He did however deserve punishment for his thoughtless and, in some ways, selfish irresponsible actions. There again we cannot compare this man's actions with those of a drink driver who knows there is a law against drinking and driving. There is no law telling us how many hours sleep we need before we drive, but no doubt plans to change this by the 21st century Pharisees are well underway!! The above is a first class example of spiteful vengeful judgementalism or legalism, not justice. The above case has nothing to do with justice!! Compare the above example to the backdrop of the overall situation in the criminal 'justice' system in the UK. In Britain today there is a prisons crisis, so much so, there are hundreds of new convicts sentenced every day, yet not enough prison cells to put them in. 'Government' is literally instructing judges not to sentence criminals with prison terms because there is no room for them. I am talking here about real criminals, not otherwise upright people who make mistakes and unintentionally or accidentally kill someone. This means violent thugs and thieves and drug dealing vermin are virtually let off with community service (with re-offending almost a certainty). So here is 'justice' under Political Correctness in 'Cool Britannia': An otherwise upright subject/citizen is banged up for five years for making a serious mistake, whilst violent criminals, often guilty of causing intentional serious bodily harm and death through knife wounds, roam free doing community service. Now the question is, is this new or have we seen a record of it all before?

Here above the Lord Jesus Christ accurately describes the politically correct leaders of His day and he doesn't pull any punches either. There they were all 'style' and sound bites in their Armani suits of the first century. Full of: "How do I look?" and nothing else - no weightier matters - no justice - no mercy - no truth and most definitely no faith, for a more Godless generation you would be hard pressed to find (until today's generation of course). They were whited sepulchres hollow, empty, devoid of substance, justice and truth and the people that govern us today are exactly the same, there is no difference whatsoever, if anything, they are worse!! King Solomon in circa 900 BC said: Eccl 1:9 "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun." It's a sobering thought that within less than forty years of Our Lord accusing them of being a Godless generation that they were destroyed and their city Jerusalem destroyed as well, by the Romans in 70 AD.
