ecosystems

We humans are also a part of nature.  For example, we cause extinctions, similar to however the dinosaurs died out.  There are many endangered species on this planet including the spotted owl and the California redwood.  We must protect, by law, the habitat of these creatures as well as the species themselves

Christians, Wiccans and Pagans

Wiccans and Pagans should remain Wiccans and Pagans, and Jews, Christians and Muslims should remain Jews, Christians and Muslims and we all should be friendly towards each other and get along.   We also should care for this fragile planet and ecosystem we call our home.

importance of a labor strike

Unions should go on strike if the workers are not happy.  People should never cross a picket line or scab (taking a job from a struck plant or store).  people should boycott any company who's workers go on strike.

A lukewarm Christian

In my opinion, a lukewarm Christian is one who has no love.  They can be legalistic, using the Bible as a rule book.  Paul wrote that one who has no love in their heart has nothing.  My friend Jeanne was falsely accused of being "full of demons", but she is the vary one who got to my heart, witnessing to me about Jesus.  She prays for the rainforests.

Fine tuning

The UN is pretty good, but it needs fine tuning.  The General Assembly should have the authority to override a decision by the security council.

Persecution

St. Polycarp was a Christian who was burned alive at the stake.  He was then pierced by a Roman sword and his blood put out the flames partially.

Jews and slaves were not the only ones crucified.  Druids were gortesqely crucified by many Roman emperors including Julius Caesar.

group karma

THis is sad, but true.  I feel that the very same people who threw Christians to the lions and forced some of them to participate in gladiatorial sport in Rome were the very same who went through the Burning times (Inqusition) and burned alive as witches.  Then this group of people in turn endured the Holocaust.  This has been going on since Cro-Magnan man slaughtered Neandrathal man in Northern Europe in the Stone Age.  When will this cycle of revenge end?
