Confusing Words

After working in the hot sun Friday and Saturday, I read the warning label of a medicine recently prescribed that states: "Avoid direct sunlight while taking this medicine."

As the saying goes: "When all else fails read the instructions." Nothing happened to me. The warning is that the medicine causes a sensativity of the skin to the sun's rays.

Please understand without clarity there is no common sense and without moral absolutes there is no clarity. For immoral liberals, it is a vicious cycle. Yet is it too strong a statement to say that the survival of American society depends upon the common sense that moral absolutes give us?

In a word - no!

Young Iraqis gather the shoes from victims in a bomb attack on a soccer field, Thursday, Aug. 3, 2006, in Baghdad, Iraq. The two homemade bombs went off on the soccer field in the mostly Shiite district of Amil in west Baghdad, killing both players and spectators ranging in age from 15 to 25. But, unlike the children of Qana, these children, the deliberate targets of terrorists, were soon forgotten by the media. (AP Photo)
