Judge Kavanaugh didn't answer the majority of the questions that were asked of him.

That's the address of an article that Judge Kavanaugh published today.

Loudly or quietly, what he most needed to do was not be evasive.  

My opinion is what it was yesterday.  Everyone can understand why he was upset.  I don't really care about his decibel levels; he's lying his tail off, and he should just withdraw and return to work at his old job or one like it while he cooperates with a real investigation of all of the allegations.  

I'm not invested in his life being ruined.  Nobody should want anyone's life to be ruined.  

Here's a question; what about all of his "church on Sunday" talk?  I don't claim to be devoutly religious; I believe in G-d because I have had a life of pain and suffering and in the midst of that have had instances when I knew that not a being in the universe cared about me other than G-d.  

G-d has no favorites, including the Jews, and I know this because I had a bat mitzvah and despite how much I would have preferred it, G-d didn't transfer the memorization of the Hebrew that I had to sing for it into my brain overnight and I had to study for it so that I wouldn't sound stupid in front of everyone who was invited.  Although I didn't know it at the time, that doesn't even register as part of my life of inhuman pain and suffering.  

G-d doesn't stop illness, war, rape, murder, poverty, or anything else that makes people horribly unhappy.  G-d doesn't save people from dying.  G-d guarantees nothing to anyone.  

I don't think that my idea of what G-d is and what G-d does is the G-d to whom Judge Kavanaugh swore when he was asked to swear that he was telling the truth.  

G-d doesn't accept excuses.  G-d doesn't care about your resume.  I'm sure that G-d can forgive anyone for drinking and even for lying and even for attempted rape.  

G-d can also help people through it when they decide to stop their deceptions.  G-d does that.
