Good Morning from Nick Carraway:

“”God wants law

God wants organized crime

God wants crusade

God wants jihad

God wants good

God wants bad

What God wants God gets.” – Roger Waters

Before she got the Covid, Jenna Ellis went to the place most conservatives seem to go to eventually. She was doing God’s work. The direct quote is about as predictable as any you might see. “Ultimately at the end of the day, as long as I know that I’m pursuing truth and I’m doing the right thing for God and my country, That’s all that matters. So that’s what gives me my optimism and my hope.”

I’m not sure if Mr. Waters above believes in God or not. His lyrics are often dripping with sarcasm and he has gotten in hot water recently for some anti-Semitic stances, but this three part song represents how we as people can pervert religion to serve our purposes. No matter what we do we can do it under the assumption that it is what God wants.

I’m not going to go into all the reasons why this particular reasoning is flawed. Everyone here knows the score. The question for Ms. Ellis is whether one can credibly do God’s work while subverting justice and lying. Again, let’s forget about the ultimate goal of giving him a second term and what that would mean. People can believe what they want. Do the ends justify the means?”
