Encountered a busy-body tonight who felt she had the right to tell me what to do, and not do while eating at an outdoor table.
When I politely told her to mind her own business, she informed me it was a public place (technically it wasn’t) which gave her the right to interfere in somebody else’s business in her mind.
It made me think later how the world might be better off if the US spent more time worrying about its own affairs & less time telling other countries what to do.
Prime example is Rubio telling the Iranians they should have spent less on weapons and more on helping the people. Maybe little Marco should look at the US. Spending billions on weapons, while millions here have no health insurance, no homes, and can barely afford to eat.
Americans, especially the faux-christian ones, need to learn to mind their own business. Whether it is telling other countries to do what they’re not, or individuals thinking telling others what to do or not do.
There is a bit in that book they claim to follow (but, in fact, don’t) that covers this. Matthew 7, 3-5:
3. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4. How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5. You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
