Golden Globe Actresses Protest

Well, the Golden Globes were broadcast about a week ago. All of America's moral voices were on hand and dressed in black to show us “lowly commoners” they were in unison in their protests of sexual harassment and in favor of #MeToo movement. So to the liberal way of thinking we should all be applauding their moral convictions and pat them on the back for their courage in coming out in public against this growing menace in Hollywood. Great, they can agree that this atrocity is wrong but where were they when the Harvey Weinsteins and Kevin Spaceys were committing these horrendous crimes?They were there but they turned their heads so it wouldn't mess up their careers. So they pretended it did not happen until they were trapped in a corner and had to admit the truth.

This hypocrisy just represents another facet of the Hollywood elite trying to show us commoners how to live and what to think. These women that dressed in black pretend to care for women's wrights but where are they when women's rights are being violated in Muslim countries where a woman is stoned if she is raped? Where is their outrage when children are being sold and traded in the sex trafficking trade? Where is their moral indignation when millions of women are killed each year by abortion?

What about their outcries for all the women that do not fit their narratives or agree with ideologies against Trump and adoration for Hillary Clinton. It seems to me that in order to fit in the umbrella of their caring and protection a woman must be a robot and be programmed with the liberal talking points.

They “claim” to be against the objectification of women by wearing their “cute” little black dresses. But what I see tends to lead to more sexualizing of women. I mean, how can you object to the demoralizing of women when you demoralize yourself with your dresses that let your cleavage hang out in dresses that are slit from the hem to your—well, I'll let you picture where the slit ends. You cannot be pretending to be demure little victims of the big bad wolf when you are clearly wanting the wolf to notice you. You cannot claim the victim status when you so clearly put your self out in the spotlight to be ogled by these “big bad wolves”.

I'm not saying all women who are victimized are like this but from what I see coming out of Hollywood, this seems to be the mode of protest. I have been a victim myself so I know how it feels but I do not protest as a victim and dress as a seductress. Ladies, where I come from when you dress like that, you are not a victim. We have another word for it.

As always you are free to disagree but I am free to express my opinions. May God bless you all. Just saying.

New Wings by Donna Stanley

“When we pray for the supernatural, why are we surprised when it actually shows up?”

Olivia Stanton always knew the spiritual realm exists.  She goes to church and has read about guardian angels.  However, when she prays for God to show her her guardian angel.  She does not recognize him when he does make his presence known.  However, as things begin to happen to her friends she becomes a powerful prayer warrior.  I was surprised to see this book handled many sensitive issues teens experience with grace and integrity.  Among a few of these issues are cutting, date rape, car accidents, and teenage pregnancy.  Ms. Stanley covered this issues with tact and with enough knowledge and tact. 

As things continue to occur, Olivia becomes a very powerful prayer warrior for God and calls upon  God to send His angels for protection.  Although this book deals with both sides of spiritual warfare—angels and demons—it does so with credibility and without sensationalism.  This is a YA novel but it changed my prayer life and has led me to think about my own guardian angel.  If anyone likes novels about spiritual warfare, this is the book for them.

I am giving this book a 5 star rating because it is well-written and a refreshing change from the Vampire novels that are written for young people today.  I am passing this book on the family and friends and hope it changes their lives as it did mine.  The only downside of this book for me is once I started reading it, I could not put it down and read farther into the night than I intended.  In other words, I got up the next morning still sleepy.

I received this book from Glass Roads without monetary remuneration for a honest review.  I was not required to publish a positive review, only one that reflected my opinion.  The opinion in this review is solely mine and under no influence by anyone connected with the author or publisher.
