As God stood upon on high, looking over all that he had created, he had a burning desire to do more so he embarked upon a journey to create heaven and earth in the form of not just one planet but billions.  Upon these billions of planets he would create beings made in his image who would occupy and care for his creations.  He would create animals, plants, insects and birds that would also bring beauty to his creation and provide the beings all that would be necessary to sustain them.  He would equip each creation with its own defense mechanism as well as provide them with the intelligence to create useful tools or evolve to suit the ever changing climate.  This was and will always be a great accomplishment and one of which he should always be proud of.  This remained the case until he decided to present his idea to those most closely to him. In a meeting with all of the top angels of that time he made his presentation.  Many there were amazed and suppo...

Can anyone remember how upset many veterans were after seeing photos of the treatment of prisoners at Gitmo and other places?  One of the biggest arguments was how we treat others will be how many of us are treated.  Those who thought they knew better than any veteran who served during times of conflict said that this was a lie and never would happen to an American and especially an American fighting man or woman.  The article titled “ Investigator: Bergdahl left post to expose problems in unit “by Juan A. Lozano for the Associated Press proves what many of us was warning against and it will remain unchanged unless we began to show that how we treat other prisoners is a clear example of how we wish our captured to be treated.  Like all others things, if you want respect from the world, you must first and foremost be willing to give respect to the world.  The article states “Terrence Russell, a Department of Defense worker who helped debrief Bergdahl after ...

I am sure, by now, many of you have heard the story of the 103 year old lady who was recently banned from a church she had attended since she was 13 years old and even the secretary of that church for a number of years.  Like most of you, when I first heard it I was upset because the God that I know is not the God that this church, and many others like it, don’t.  The God that I know accepts all regardless of color, sex, and even sins but apparently this church and its leaders seem to wish to develop what they call a place of God into their vision instead of leaving it to God to form that building as he/she sees fit.  Part of the story is presented below. The title of this article is “ 103-year-old Georgia woman banned from lifelong church ” from MyFoxAtlanta sourcing from TheGrio.com states “ A 103-year-old Georgia woman was recently banned from attending her lifelong Baptist church, causing a rift in the local community. reports, Genora Hamm Biggs has been worshipi...

I know that I cannot be the first to suggest such an unthinkable solution to what many are calling our over populated prison system but I don’t hear much coming from those born with a microphone.  I am very much aware that the reason for this is the enormous amount of money this system generates for those able to capture it and make it private.  I am aware that it could be that those closet Klan members (black, white and Hispanic) sitting on America’s bench, would rather keep their finger pressed down upon those that they see as beneath them and this is the only legal way that they can do that.  I am aware that the threat of jail used to be all that anyone would need to get a confession even from an innocent person and now all it appears to be is a warehouse where those who we see as inferior can be placed without it ever being referred to as a concentration camp. Knowing all this, it still escapes me why not many others are calling for or willing to stand up and mak...

He burst upon the scene in July of 2004; prior to that Barack Hussein Obama the second was a little known individual who had recently won a seat in the Senate.  After that speech, many begin to see him as a potentially rising star in the Democratic Party.  They saw him as someone who could motivate and capture the imagination of many.  They saw him as a connection to that base of Democratic voters who had been feeling disenfranchised for so long and a bridge to bring them back into the fold.  They saw him as an advantage to stand on stage with and hold arms with for no other reason than to advance their own cause.  For those who were not of the Democratic Party, they only saw a black man who was articulate, well-groomed and would make a good preacher.  What none of them saw, except a few, was a man who stood for something, had a pretty good idea how to obtain it and was not going to let anyone or anything be the reason he did not achieve.  The only ob...
