in-vis-i-ble, n., unable to be seen; adj., not visible to the eye.
Although devices exist which allow people to know about all of the items on the list I presented, none of them can be seen with the unaided eye, and as such, all of them are invisible.
No, clearly it is not compassionate to aid a person who is breaking the law. It is not compassionate to make wrongdoing palatable or safer. It is not compassionate to raise a child in an English-speaking country and reject English in any way possible, thereby limiting him to the hottest and sweatiest of menial jobs.
Compassion, tolerance, and love of one's fellow man are Biblical ideals. Subjugation, slavery, and execution of non-believers are not our ideals and are wrong for Muslims, too.
"Compassion" does not mean and never meant that the murderer/rapist is left free to act again. Compassion does not imply society's approval or tolerance of profoundly abnormal behavior.
For two centuries, immigrants knew that moving to America meant embracing our culture and our language. Now, Mexicans slip the border and do everything they can to stay Mexican. Is it compassionate to help them? To feed them in the desert? To make sure that their children hear only Spanish in our schools?
Equality is not a suicide compact. Equality is not a license for extreme behavior. Equality does not impose upon the just the standards and morals of the unjust. A free society is not by definition prohibited from moral codes and statutes.
"Invisible things," like oxygen, radiation, radio and TV signals, satellite transmissions, electricity, X-rays, wireless internet and viruses govern an awful lot of your daily life in the modern world.
It is of course very strange to see in print (even considering the source) a protest of laws condemning crimes against nature, condemning those laws as crimes against humanity. How can human rights protect unnatural acts?
Communism begins with the notion that the government cannot trust the people, and the freedom that we all enjoy as Americans must be rooted in the notion that the people cannot trust the government.
They have demanded... and this Obama, this worst of all Presidents, has apparently aceded to this request, that the federal government will not enforce all its own given laws. The 111th Congress, acting in darkness, in a lame-duck Congress, has led with tail lights instead of headlights, and has acted to dismantle the Don't-Ask-Don't-Tell compromise from Hell, and has somehow (?) sided with Hell.
All gay rights actions have already come back to haunt us, and this is only the beginning.
Our Constitution was written on a single page, with seven fairly brief Articles, and has been expanded by twenty-seven fairly brief Amendments. Although it does not pause to identify or respect the Creator, all fifty of the state Constitutions do.
Our opponents who demand respect for that which is wicked... seem willing to ride the train of secular government they believe is enshrined in the federal constitution as far as it will take them, and then derail that train when it suits them.
that authority must be ceded, laws must be written, commissioners must be hired, prosecutors must file, judges must sit and juries must hear... because the common man is too foolish, too prejudiced, too bigoted, too illiterate, too biased by religion, to be trusted in his dealings with his neighbor, that they be fair enough. Oh, and certainly such a man, without sufficient training, without coercion of law, should not be allowed as employer, or landlord, or teacher, or as any authority.
Today, a sprawling federal bureaucracy is run by a crowd of self-involved lawyers and their lobbyists. Our republic is threatened on one side by corporatists, on another side by the socialists, on a third side by the agitators, and on a fourth side by the outsiders.
The gay rights crowd is a small part of this third side; dividing America faction by faction, pitting us one against another, demanding special ("equal") consideration, demanding new government under Communist pretenses:
