• Good, Chaos and When Delusion Breaks Us Down

    Vulnerability can be a wonderful thing until it isn’t.  In order to enjoy life one must be vulnerable to the delicate inputs of joy’s networks because if you aren’t open to joy, eventually you become numb.

  • Good, Extremely Shallow or Rooted Radical: Americas Choice.

    Both the left and the right of politics in this nation are a blend of ideological and strategic, but seem to avoid becoming radical.

  • Good, Political Hatred and Orthocardia, Right Heart

     “I am tired of being pitted against my neighbor. I’m tired of being told to hate my neighbor. It’s been more than 10 years of this kind of politics.

  • Good and a Gandhi Candle for America’s Darkness

    Have I that nonviolence of the brave in me? My death alone will show that.  If someone killed me and I died with prayer for the assassin on my lips, and Gods remembrance and consciousness of His living presence in the sanctuary of my heart, then alone would I be said to have had the…

  • Good and Move Over God, The War Department has This

    The David and Goliath story is known in both secular and religious contexts to almost every man woman and child raised in western culture.  The giant of a warrior with shining armor, certain of victory, is brought down by a boy with a sling shot, a dead aim, and lots of faith. In Russia their…
