Priority Claims

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Can you say "peace," boys and girls? Try it, you might like it.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

We care more about oversized and overly-"designed" houses than we do about homeless people.
You must get tired of our lack of compassion.
We care more about oversized, gas-guzzling vehicles than we do about doing something about polluted air and global warming.
You must get tired of our selfish priorities.
We care more about our own comfort than we do about halting genocidal atrocity and war.
You must get tired of our apathy and complacency.
We care more about hiccups in the stock market than we do about the quality of health care for our citizens.
You must get tired of our greed.
We care more about the recent episode of our favorite sit-com or soap opera than we do about educating children.
You must get tired of our misplaced values.
We care more about celebrities and sporting events than we do about spiritual development.
You must get tired of our stupidity.

I wonder... if you had it to do over, would you?
Yes, I know.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

"My way is the high way."

[If anyone had the right to say it, He did. But He didn't, not in so many words.]
