Happy Sunday Rant

I sincerely hope everyone who reads this is safe and dry. Watching the news reports, I am reminded that the power of nature is scary and the drive to survive among humans is amazing as we see so many good people come forward to help others. Great work, good job, and thank you!

It saddens me beyond words to know that our great nation has lost so many of the principals that have bound us together that we are unraveling the fabric that once united us. Please consider your words and actions so that later you will not be forced to live with regret. Help those in need. Be a good human being.

Here are some ideas to remember: humans bleed and die both emotionally and physically. All life, human life especially, is important. Some groups of people are left more vulnerable than others to the power brokers of the world. Equal rights is a goal, nobody is there yet and many people are treated unequally, even in the United States. This is a world  filled with people of different religions, different cultures, and different backgrounds. None of them are good, none of them are bad, and most of all none of them are wrong.

There was a reason our founding fathers in the USA wanted a complete separation of church and state. Government is often dangerous to the people. Religion is often dangerous to the people. If the two unite, the people always lose. Now imagine what happens if corrupt government unites with corrupt religion.

The world we live in is made up of corrupt governments, corrupt religions and many other corrupt institutions. However, we are all capable of working together beyond them. I am a human being, you are a human being. I have strengths and so do you. That is the basis of understanding. Stop letting others tell you who and how to hate. We are better than that!
