A. Unabashed Pacifist
Peacocks for Peace:
We preen for peace. We parade for peace. We pose for peace. We publicize for peace. We practice peace. We take pride in peace. Pay attention to us!
B. Unabashed Christian:
Holy One,
Great is your faithfulness, beyond all expectation and beyond all human reason. When we look around, we might ask whether it’s worth it to you. We humans are big on cruelty, hatred, greed, war, deceit, sex valued over love, and unfaithfulness. Your optimism relative to humans boggles our comprehension. It also sometimes inspires us to follow your faithful example. Make us more like you.
Amen
C. Un-quoting Jesus:
“This small tablet will take relieve you of your problems, woman. I call it Pro-Zachariah.”
[He was no pill-pusher, so He never said this.]
D. Blog: Political Comment
Have you noticed that one of the presidential campaigns seems to have produced a vast amount of material for comedians, satirists and cartoonists? I don’t think that bodes well for a candidate...
Did you see, for instance, the cartoon showing a news anchor making this announcement: “John McCain has come out – against Halloween as socialistic redistribution.”
Right up there with Social Security, Medicare, Medicare, government-supported insurance for children, student grants, bank bailouts, farm subsidies, public schools and progressive taxation as used by most nations on Earth. “Pure capitalism” does not exist, especially not in the “real” world.
