Many popular Christian speakers have told me they can’t imagine why it might be an advantage to work with an alias, not get married, not have children, and not expose your personal life to everyone on social media. But the fact is, it’s much easier to say what you really think when no one can punish you. Even people who do make bold stands understand that.
Here’s the article from Daily Wire:
A Christian pro-life father of 11 facing over a decade in prison will be sentenced on Tuesday for his conviction over a peaceful protest in Tennessee at an abortion facility in 2021.
Paul Vaughn, who was convicted of violating the FACE Act and conspiracy against civil rights in January, was targeted by the Biden administration in October 2022 after he participated in a peaceful protest at an abortion facility in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee in March 2021. He will be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Aleta Trauger on Tuesday in Nashville. He faces hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines and up to 10.5 years in prison.
I checked, and District Judge Aleta Trauger was appointed by former president Bill Clinton, a radical pro-abortion activist.
This is the key point made by Vaughn:
“It’s real easy for me. I can go and go to battle and go to jail as an individual, and it’s not a big loss,” Vaughn said. “The challenge comes when you’re leading your family through it, when you’re talking to your 3-year-old and your 23-year-old and your other family.”
Yes, that’s how things really work in the real world. It’s admirable to perform these actions and take the hit from the secular left fascists. But it’s harder to do that when you have dependents. Many of the most prominent Christian leaders who don’t have an alias keep well clear of politics. They don’t say anything about abortion or homosexuality, especially then they are married with children. That decision (to marry and have children) actually has a dampening effect on the witness of most Christians.
It’s especially a problem when Christian men marry non-Christian women, which happens all the time. When you have a non-Christian wife, and little mouths to feed at home, then of course you’re going to have nothing at all to say about the controversial issues of the day. Not only do you run the risk of your non-Christian wife divorcing you, but you also have to face threats from non-Christians on the outside of the home: family, friends, and co-workers. This is why so many Christian men decline to speak out on the most controversial issues. They are too vulnerable to persecution.
By the way, I checked up a bit more on the judge. The judge who is handing out the sentence is the same one who found the Christians guilty.
But look at this Nashville NPR:
A federal judge has struck down a Tennessee law that would’ve required businesses and schools to post a warning sign if they allow transgender people to use the restroom that aligns with their gender.
The same judge had granted a temporary injunction against the law, stopping it from taking effect last summer. Judge Aleta Trauger ruled that the law violated the First Amendment rights of trans-friendly businesses.
“Transgender Tennesseans are real,” Trauger wrote. “The businesses and establishments that wish to welcome them are real. And the viewpoints that those individuals and businesses hold are real, even if they differ from the views of some legislators or government officials.”
If the accused people are expecting this radical Clinton-appointee to interpret the law fairly, I think they’ll be disappointed. Radical feminist judicial activists love to legislate from the bench. They didn’t get into law in order to understand legal principles and apply laws fairly. They got into law so they could conduct judicial activism. They got into law in order to push a political agenda.
One more thing. A lot of prominent Christian leaders support the idea of marrying young. They look at the threats to marriage for men, and they say “just choose a better wife”.
Here are some the threats that men are facing from the decision to get married:
- most young women are liberal, and therefore not safe for good conservative to marry
- no-fault divorce is unfair to men, e.g. – alimony, child support and unfair denial of custody and visitation
- biased application of domestic violence laws
- church siding with women against men, often in direct opposition to the clear teachings of the Bible
- false accusations against men, e.g. – at work or at school
- paternity fraud
- unfairly severe criminal sentences
- high taxes, inflation, caused by the welfare state
Choosing the right woman can protect you from some of those threats, but not all of them. Even if you marry the perfect Christian woman, you won’t be safe from a radical feminist man-hating Christianity-hating judge who can slap hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines on you, and throw you into prison for a decade. Maybe Christian leaders could first do something about radical feminists in power before they get on to bullying good men into marriage and parenting. There’s a reason why good men have to be careful about being vulnerable to the wrong people.
