Not exact matches
The image
of a woman who is battered for 20 years by her clergyman husband and who would forgive him, «
because the Bible tells her to,» the image
of a young mother and father who can not understand why their three - year - old daughter was sexually abused in the day care center to which they had entrusted her each morning; the image
of a woman who was sacked from the women's program
of her church
because she refused to comply to the request
of the president
of the church that she and the other women vote for him in his election
campaign; the image
of a 14 - year - old migrant domestic worker who
faces the death sentence on trumped up charges,
because she would not give in to the sexual demands
of her employer; the image
of a male priest
of a church saying that every time he beats his wife she should thank him,
because she is one step closer to salvation; or the priest who would make sexual advances on a woman who out
of vulnerability turns to the church for pastoral comfort... these are but a glimpse
of the many such images that are gathered during the course
of this Decade.
there is no doubting that Arsene has helped to provide us with some incredible footballing moments in the formative years
of his managerial career at Arsenal, but that certainly doesn't and shouldn't mean that he has earned the right to decide when and how he should leave this club... there have been numerous managers at each
of the biggest clubs in Europe throughout the last decade who have waged far more successful
campaigns than ours yet somehow and someway each were given their walking papers
because they failed to meet the standards laid out by the hierarchy
of their respective clubs...
of course that doesn't mean that clubs should simply follow the lead
of others, especially if clubs
of note have become too reactionary when it comes to issues
of termination, for whatever reasons, but there should be some logical discourse when it comes to the setting
of parameters for a changing
of the guard... in the case
of Arsenal, this sort
of discourse was largely stifled when the higher - ups devised their sinister plan on the eve
of our move to the Emirates... by giving Wenger a free pass due to supposed financial constraints he, unwittingly or not, set the bar too low... it reminds me
of a landlord who says he will only rent to «professional people» to maintain a certain standard then does a complete about
face when the market is lean and vacancies are up... for those who rented under the original mandate they
of course feel cheated but there is little they can do, except move on, especially if the landlord clearly cares more about profitability than keeping their word... unfortunately for the lifelong fans
of a football club it's not so easy to switch allegiances and frankly why should they, in most cases we have been around far longer than them... so how does one deal with such an untenable situation... do you simply shut - up and hope for the best, do you place the best interests
of those with only self - serving agendas above the collective and pray that karma eventually catches up with them, do you run away with your tail between your legs and only return when things have ultimately changed, do you keep trying to find silver linings to justify your very existence, do you lower your expectations by convincing yourself it could be worse or do you stand up for what you believe in by holding people accountable for their actions, especially when every fiber
of your being tells you that something is rotten in the state
of Denmark
