Immoral Authority

Authorities who preach moral values but practice immoral acts and who often live a secret hedonistic lifestyle. In some cases, Institutions like churches and political parties can create institutional barriers that help enable immoral acts.
The children in the Sunday school had a very hard time understanding the difference between a Moral Authority and an Immoral Authority. Some of the students found it especially hard to understand, especially those with first hand knowledge.

Moral Authority

Hym "MORAL AUTHORITY!? AHAHAHA! Well, if the highest moral authority on the planet is a mental retard we are in big trouble folks! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHAT IS EVEN THE BASIS OF HIS MORAL AUTHORITY? 'Um... Uh.. You see, my cripple HIPAA paperwork says I'm not a retard so um... Actually, it says I'm an extra special guy? So, actually, not a retard. I may have a mental retardation... And I may have bought my way into all of my positions... But-' EEEEEHHHHH! WRONG! YOU ARE A RETARD ELON! YOU RUN A SPACESHIP COMPANY AND THINK THE SUN IS MADE OF FIRE! RETARD! THAT'S WHAT A RETARD IS! DEFINITIONALLY RETARD. NO MORAL AUTHORITY FOR RETARDS!"

"ghost writer" AUTHORity

Rampant in "chain of command" situations --- especially the military and "mega-biz" establishments --- whereby everybody wants to push underlings around but then hastily "passes the buck" and claims ignorance/innocence when things go sour. Refers to the deplorable practice of an arrogant/dictatorial/irresponsible/ignorant a**h**e with way too much power ("authority") giving unwise/ineffective/counter-productive orders to one or more hapless underlings, brusquely refusing to listen to their urgently-beseeching appeals about the fallacy/unfairness/danger of proceeding as he told them, but then suddenly shedding all knowledge/responsibility (i.e., not admitting that he was indeed the "author" of those crazy stipulations) regarding said preposterous directives whenever s**t hits the fan afterwards as a result of his subordinates' having reluctantly-but-obediently carried out his unwisely-mandated actions.
I long ago decided to not just blindly/arbitrarily follow orders/rules/laws, no matter what position or experience or education/training that their "authors" happened to supposedly possess... I **always** use my own judgement/conscience in all my actions. Too many times in the past, I've gotten in knee-deep doo-doo MYSELF for someone else's screw-ups in reasoning/planning, only to have said "idiot in power" pull da ol' "ghost writer" AUTHORity trick on me, never admitting or even falsely denying ever having told me to proceed that way, just so that HE would not have to suffer any of the fallout from his own preposterous directives.

Women in authority

You thinking I think that is the reason I'm being singled out by my manager. You're a piece of shit Elisa. Kill yourself. Hopefully your daughter is as bad with men as you are and get her ass beat for CHOOSING WRONG.
Hym "All of the women in authority I've met have abused that authority. 100%. Absolute garbage. Especially this piece of shit."

Scratch-off authority

Authority figures, with veneer of legitimacy so thin, that it can be readily removed, to reveal the criminal constitution that is beneath.
The mother was a hypocrit, and a scratch-off authority, with a history of criminal faults, that she hid behind the facade of respectable, government, employee.

death of the author

A pretentious, postmodern jerk-off idea, popular among some academics, that says that the creator of an artistic work is irrelevant to the work, that their thought processes and intentions in creating the work don't matter, that they are not an authority on the very thing that they created, and that YOU, the passive consumer of the work, are more qualified to know what the work is about than they are, who put tons of hard work and effort into creating it.
Who does this "Ray Bradbury" person think he is, saying that Fahrenheit 451 is about how nobody reads books anymore? *I* say it's about censorship, dammit! What does HE know, he only wrote the damn thing! Death of the author says that creators are just passive, empty vessels through which the Divine Muse speaks!
