Most Un-Christian Attribute?
FEAR
Most exploited emotion by fundi-ministers and our government?
FEAR
Most important law according to Jesus Christ?
He gave us a twofer, LOVE God and LOVE your neighbor.
What is war? What is racism? What is greed? What is oppression? What is fear? What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?
"There is discrimination in this world and slavery and slaughter and starvation. Governments repress their people; and millions are trapped in poverty while the nation grows rich; and wealth is lavished on armaments everywhere.
"These are differing evils, but they are common works of man. They reflect the imperfection of human justice, the inadequacy of human compassion, our lack of sensibility toward the sufferings of our fellows."
"But we can perhaps remember--even if only for a time--that those who live with us are our brothers; that they share with us the same short moment of life; that they seek--as we do--nothing but the chance to live out their lives in purpose and happiness, winning what satisfaction and fulfillment they can." Robert F. Kennedy
As my new friend told me a few days ago, we are all terminal, take a deep breath, be brave and do the right thing, in this, your "short moment of life."
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
We've had 30 years since Jimmy Carter told us to get off the oil teat and what did we do, we vilified him and made Ronald "Raygun" a saint. Can I get an amen? How about a reach around? We are all terminal and we are all diseased, next time your Christian friend that's against stem cell research get's a tooth ache, tell him to pray for an aspirin. We are killing Arabs for oil, just who the hell are the bad guys?
