Government, fix God’s mistakes

Democrats take their complaints with God to the altar of government.

To say that it is not “fair” that someone live in poverty while others
are wealthy, or, to use a more melodramatic example from Nancy Pelosi,
that “women die on the floor,” is a complaint to God; it is to ask for a
theodicy.

{mosads}Why is there evil in the world? Surely the government didn’t invent it; surely the government didn’t create poverty (though with policies like President Obama’s, it spreads it copiously); surely the government didn’t create death. Yet liberals immediately claim that it is the government’s job to right every wrong in the world, to either fix God’s mistakes or, in the case of sexual sins, to apologize for humanity’s.
