But Moral Decisions Do Matter

I am in an interesting class for senior adults paid for by the state of California and given throughout my city by our junior college. They are free and very stimulating. They last two hours and are mostly discussion with some lecture if they are that type of class. One of my classes is Contemporary World Issues where we discuss the news of the day, whether it be international, national, state or local. I am surprised by the mostly very liberal people in the class. There are also some atheists who are veyr angry with God. Oops, I forgot. THBey don't believe in God....:) Remember, these people are almost all over 65. But then I do live in S. California. There is one woman in my class in her early 90's who constantly says that a person's "personal life" (read that - morality) has nothing to do with how they govern or legislate if they are in politics. I beg to differ.

You've probably heard about the governor of South Carolina and his high jinks. Of course his political decisions can be qustioned because of his moral and personal ones. Are you telling me he is two people? That he makes one type of decision in his personal life and another in his professional life? It may look that way at first for these types of people, but it does catch up with them later in their professional decisions IMO. I feel he should resign from being governor and I hope the people of S.C. make sure he does. This is the guy who ASKED his wife if he could go see his mistress. She told him to leave for a while and think about their marriage. He left all right,and then went to see his mistress in Argentina. So, I don't think this is a person who should be in a decision-making job, do you?
