Cal Slams the Hypocrites

I really enjoy reading Cal Thomas, as many of you already know. Here is a quote from one of his most recent articles:

Abstinence is a standard that works 100 percent of the time for those who practice it. There are consequences for those who do not and Bristol Palin has joined a growing list of young women who have come to realize that too late. As to whether any of this should reflect poorly on Sarah Palin or her husband, I suspect most Americans will empathize with all concerned and say no.

This doesn't reflect so much what the article is about. Most of the meat of the article was slamming the media for its hypocrisy in its dealing with Bristol Palin's out-of-wedlock pregnancy. Still, I love that Thomas doesn't deny the truth even as he defends Bristol. The truth is the truth. Sin is sin. You can still be compassionate and even defensive of the person, but it doesn't change the fact that sin is sin and sin begets consequences. This will never change.
