Love Will Overcome

 It’s hard to deny that some form of Christofascism is attempting to be entrenched in America. 

The most effective way to resist this assault on democracy is to use what it lacks against it. 

Christofascism is a movement that treats people as slaves to the powerful leaders. There is no empathy, no concern for those less fortunate. Might makes right. Every man for himself. 

We can fight this inhumane form of government by caring for each other, loving one another.

Now you may wonder, if we don’t matter in the universal scheme of things, why we should we care about each other. I’ll be addressing that in a coming post.

Advice

For many years I’ve refused to give advice. What’s worked in my unique life may not work in someone else’s. Besides, they often don’t listen anyway, or they do, the advice doesn’t work, and they resent you.  But lately I’ve been seeing people who are down on themselves, being subjected to the bigoted or ignorant comments of others. I feel an urge to reach out, to offer aid and comfort. That’s why I got ordained, to minister. Not with religion but with support and acceptance. So that’s my mission now. To encourage those who are down to ignore the opinions of others and to find their unique inner strength and beauty.

Skepticism and critical thinking

  Skepticism is a philosophical approach that emphasizes the importance of questioning beliefs, ideas, and claims before accepting them as true. It involves maintaining a critical attitude toward information, evidence, and arguments, rather than simply accepting them at face value. Skepticism encourages individuals to demand evidence and to scrutinize the reasoning behind assertions, with the goal of distinguishing between reliable knowledge and unfounded beliefs or falsehoods. This approach fosters intellectual humility and encourages a healthy skepticism toward authority, tradition, and popular opinion, promoting a more thoughtful and evidence-based understanding of the world. Critical thinking is a cognitive skillset and mindset that enables individuals to analyze, evaluate, and interpret information in a logical and rational manner. It involves actively engaging with ideas and evidence, considering different perspectives, and applying reasoning to assess the validity and reliabilit

Live Your Life

  We have, at best, 80 to 90 years on this planet. That may seem like a lot when you’re 20. When you’re 70 you wonder how all that time passed so quickly.  To make the most of those years we need to be ourselves, speak honestly, live our own lives. If we allow others to define us or if we live to please others, we cheat ourselves.  We don’t get a second chance. No do-overs. At the end of our lives we can look back with regret or satisfaction. Living to satisfy our own standards will give us satisfaction. Letting others dictate our lives will bring regret.  We should not only strive to avoid our own suffering but the suffering of others as well. Empathy and compassion are the hallmarks of a satisfied life. We should want the best possible life for everyone.  We are members of a single race, the human race, and every human is as deserving of a good life as the next.  None of us can fully control what happens around us, but we can control our response to it. Self-control is a valuable ass
