Adventures In Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc

Huffington Post quotes from a commencement speech this month by freshman Rep. Kevin Kramer, (R-ND).

Forty years ago, the United States Supreme Court sanctioned abortion on demand. And we wonder why our culture sees school shootings so often.

And if that wasn't enough for you,

Cramer also mentioned the 9/11 and Boston Marathon attacks, saying, "Innocent people in New York have airplanes flown into their places of work, and marathoners in Boston are victims of bombs, yet Christianity is singled out as bigotry in our public institutions because politicians and academics lack the courage to speak truth. We've normalized perversion and perverted God's natural law to the point where the only thing not tolerated anymore is a stand for truth."

We're thinking this is about…Al Qaeda and the gays? That might not seem any more connected than abortion and school shootings to you at first, but the solution to that is–obviously–to pray harder.
