Men read Playboy for the articles

We're told that global warming is killing the polar bears and eventually will kill us all. We're told that the world's oil supply is about to run dry. We're told that the 'government' is smarter than the 'people' and that we should trust them to solve our problems.

Then we're told that Wall Street is the cause of all our problems. The Federal Reserve tells us they will solve the monetary problems. The Europeans tell us that Europe's problems are because of our problems.

We're told that we need to drastically change our diets or we're all going to die of heart attacks or strokes. We're told that root canals cause cancer and all manner of various diseases.

We're told one thing about vaccines and then we're told another thing that completely contradicts that.

We're told that the Republicans want to give us dirty water, polluted air, and that old people should be left to die. We're told that Democrats are the party of the people.

We're told that perfectly qualified people are not qualified for serving at the highest levels of our government. We're told that homosexuals are not perverting God's design for the continued extension of the human race. We're told that they are normal and that the rest of us are bigots.

We're told that if a white man criticizes a black man he's a racist, but if a black man criticizes a white man he has every right to since the white man is the genesis of all the black man's problems. We're told that the 'media' has ethics.

We're told that everything visible and invisible happened by a complete accident and that somehow, given enough time, everything just evolved out of 'it'.

We're told that God doesn't belong in the public discourse, prayer is illegal in schools, football games, or city council meetings. And, of course, we're told that babies aren't human beings and can be systematically murdered in the womb, partially out of the birth canal, or even after birth if certain defects can be detected.

We're even told that men read Playboy for the articles.

Jesus said, "You've heard it said, but I tell you the truth."

Maybe we should give Him a listen. We might learn something.
