Monday, December 29th, 2008Christ-Mass Musing
Wednesday, December 24th, 2008When we demand separation of church and state, it seems like a good thing inasmuch as YOU don’t want ME telling YOU how to worship That-Which-Created-Us, and I’m none too keen on having YOU tell ME how it should be done, or NOT done…
And yet I can’t help observing these last 4 decades of Godless drift, and viewing with some shock and revulsion the latest presidential elections atop the previous two years of corrupt malfeasance in Congress…
And so I am led to ask whether the removal of formal, rational acknowledgment of Our Creator, and the consequent removal of formal, rational methods and character traits normally associated with conscious, rational and compassionate humans might have something to do with today’s informal, irrational election of an ‘Ice-Cream’ candidate whose only real convictions have come from the study of and at the feet of dedicated Marxist, anti-American racists and terrorists…
There seems to be an irrational component therein, something which is working AGAINST the goodness, rational intent and practical outcomes of the One Whose birth is celebrated in this season.
The rational, emotional choice to follow and exemplify the teachings of The Christ, knowable in Jesus of Nazareth, led millions out of the darkness of ignorance and hatred, into the light of love and knowledge.
Is it possible that, by turning away from the regular investigation of the truth and practical application of the Spirit of Holiness (Wholeness, Righteousness) Americans have turned toward their own ignorance, willful blindness and disgruntled self-pity?
As we’re giving gifts to That Which Created Us, (by giving gifts to the That-Which-Created-Us that is knowable and lovable in the creatures around us) let us pause to reflect for a moment or two on the Goodness of Godness.
Have a safe, grateful Christmas everyone!

Obamagate link-a-rama
Monday, December 8th, 2008Post your comments and links regarding the Obama citizenship eligibility issue in the comments section of this post and, at first opportunity (bearing in mind that I have a day job), I will move it in full to the main post. OR, if you have a lot to say, use the POST HERE button and have a post all your own!
Either way we can make this a collaborative project. Post all views but keep it civil! Profanity, threats or empty ad hominem attacks will be deleted!
Socialism Lite? Still a problem!
Monday, November 10th, 2008A friend of mine E-mailed me that
“…president Bush’s socializing of the
failing banks was just Socialism Lite, and as such is a problem for America
and for the Republican party.”
Quite frankly, if there were a political solution to the (attitudinal-disunity)
spiritual problems confronting us today, we’d have found the answer long ago…
But I see the underlying disunity as crippling to America… people unable or unwilling
to UNITE on larger ideals and work backward to a mutually-acceptable action,
leads to the fractured, ignorant state we observe today.
Republicans, RINO, Paullians, libertarians, Greens, neo-conservatives
…and…
PUMA-Democrats, Marxists, Democrats, left-leaning liberals, crazed LLL, Koslings…
I’ve tested the waters at a couple blogs, re: New Party, and there’s
some-but-little support for such an idea. Pitting this Part against that Part
is no longer the way to lead/conduct a nation.
In addition, Obama and his lying, dissembling friends appear to be preparing
to go for the jugular, with fistfulls of Executive Orders being prepared for Day 1,
as if Executive Orders are all he needs to “RULE” America!
I am no less disturbed today than when I wrote that Constitutional essay:
We (Americans) have become the people our parents warned us against!
(and my father fought in Europe & Korea to defend us against, and I fought in Korea
to defend us against!) How can we, today, PROTECT the Constitution from
the Obama-Change team?
With free speech stifled, and no independent reporting media,
the Happy Learning Camps are only weeks away.
“You MUST learn to be sensitive
to the feewings of others! You MUST put the greater good above all else!
There are NO INDIVIDUALS at Camp Happy Learning! None! THAT type of thinking
got us into these terrible problems in the first place! Conform!”
Where have we seen THAT before?
