DOGMA TRUMPS SANITY

Well, the failed medical marijuana act is history. Once again the
so-called moral majority of Arkansas has shown its considerable
ignorance on the issue. This should not startle us, as they have a
history of opposing other rational and sane laws that would help
alleviate the suffering of innocent human beings. In their fevered
imaginations, they see in these laws the workings of their favorite
imaginary imp, Satan. To them this is the height of moral wisdom.

These reality-impaired individuals never question their shallow
morals. They have a propensity for being able to detach their cramped
morality from the reality of human suffering. So, here again we have
witnessed religious dogma superseding moral reasoning and true compassion.
