ANDIEZ Yoga The Soul of A Taurus The Fire of A Lioness The Heart of A Hippie The Mouth of A Sailor Poster
Paul said (as the Christ truth, which is in all of us) “Whatever is true..Noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable..Think about such things (and you will bring them into your life in proportion to your thoughts — this is a paraphrase from the most profound book I’ve ever read on Christ’s teaching: Emmet Fox, “The Sermon on the Mount”) I love reading Wayne Dyer, Mary Baker Eddy, Emmet Fox – but mainly just Christ’s words in the four gospels; they say it all. Shakespeare: “There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” These concepts cannot be grasped unless you are seeking with an open mind. God Bless you and God Bless our troops. ** By the way, again, I am a comedienne and my article was part of a comedy bit expressing my bewilderment and frustration. I never thought it would stir up so much trouble, but thank God most of letters I’ve gotten are profoundly supportive from Christians who are Democrats, the invisible voices out there. Much of it is supposed to be funny, but I guess you have to hear it out loud. When I say, “I never mix religion with politics, but for Christ’s sake don’t they know that Jesus was a Democrat…” people usually laugh out loud: that is me making fun of myself for saying I never mix religion with politics! And the line “Death is sexier than sex” refers to the idea that “hate sells” — calm moderate dialogue seems to be boring in this violent age. Coulter is a shock jock; the problem is, she sways a lot of young minds to hate an entire category of people! And to Big K and Redneck — I have never heard such hateful rhetoric as you both are engaged in. There is not one thing either of you have said that has anything to do with Christ — his actual words. If you are both full of so much hatred for me and your fellow man, please go back and read only his words: the four gospels are all you have to ever read to understand what Christ came to tell us. He told us to love one another and to clean up our own side of the street. What another poor soul does if he’s not hurting you, is not yours to judge. Leave vengeance and judgement to God. And we are supposed to love our enemies, bless those who persecute us… Do you think he was just kidding?

And to Big K and Redneck (and Ken Kong — who is obviously really Ann Coulter) of course I’m using hyperbole when I say I’ve never heard more hateful rhetoric than yours. I’m just exaggerating for effect, because I feel you are not very open-hearted. And I can be an idiot sometimes and obnoxiously righteous sometimes — but I do know that intolerance is hatred, thinly disguised as “moral superiority”. Militant Christians are turning others off to Christianity — the most beautiful, peaceful and wondrous idea that ever came to man. The Old Testament is superceded for the New. It is no longer “an eye for an eye”. And we are all supposed to act as Christ did, including doing the healings he did. Why aren’t we

kinda get the feeling that nobody here is going to agree on a single thing said unless it’s of a shared ideology, so why don’t we all just sit back and accept that fact that other people have other views, and there’s really nothing we can do about that? There are mudslingers and firey exactors of topical vengeance on all sides of the wide, grand political spectrum, and there always will be, and ignoring the fact that human nature is diverse across all boards seems insulting not only to people of other political persuasions, but to your own, as well. Refusal to acknowledge the flaws that exist within structured political worldviews– liberal and conservative in this discussion, I suppose –is the highest form of ignorance, if what you are truly craving is an effective and working approach to publicizing andANDIEZ Yoga The Soul of A Taurus The Fire of A Lioness The Heart of A Hippie The Mouth of A Sailor Posterntegrating your views into society as a whole. Honestly, there’s been so much cruelty and intolerance on this page from all sides of the political spectrum, it’s remarkable anybody keeps these discussions going. Such cruelty, such generalizations– nobody tries to see eye-to-eye anymore, tries to see what things we have in common– what /we,/ these people who don’t work with these media outlets and are subject to everything that they feed us, liberal or conservative alike, can really agree on. Because until we start agreeing on what we’d commonly like to see in the world, we will continue to mudsling and be belligerent and cruel to one another and dig ourselves down to nowhere. Nobody’s a ‘jackass,’ nobody’s a ‘douchebag’– everyone is just acting out of what they experience the world as. Alas, here’s me being a hypocrite. People who advocate ‘love’ seem to see this as an excuse for (or path to) inaction, which, as I would believe, it is not. To love unconditionally is to embrace unequivocally, yes, but if abuse is allowed to continue, then even the abuser is abused. Would it be in the best interests of humankind to keep Saddam in power because removing him would be a– and I’m scouring for a word here –‘militant’ conclusion, and therefore undermine the ethics of peace we are trying to establish? Perhaps. But also consider this view, if you would:

Perhaps humankind is not yet at a state in its evolution where the complete dismantling of its armed forces would be in our best interests. In a world that sees cruel monarchs, dictators, and presidents remaining in power at the objections of their people– and dictators actively engaged in the repression of their people –then perhaps the most loving conclusion, within the constructs of the reality we are currently experiencing, would be to remove this dictator. Love is not passive, love is active– love seeks a solution to a problem through the means of communication in which a problem may be solved, and if force is the only means of communication in which the other subject will respond, then force it must be. We must prioritize what is more important in our lives: the declaration of ‘absolute peacefulness,’ or the understanding that, in order to be ‘absolutely peaceful,’ we must sometimes be ‘willingly forceful.’ Otherwise? Be the change you want to see in the world. Don’t mudsling or be cruel unless you want to see the world around you becoming crueler and more malignant with every passing year. If it is peace you crave, be peaceful. If it is compassion you seek, be compassionate. And if it is agreement with all you say you want, then, well, be agreeable. It works. Really. COMMENT #250 [Permalink]… Lydia Cornell said on 12/8/2005 @ 3:42 am PT… Oh – and in case you take everything so literally there is no spirit left (remember Christ said the Pharisees were so concerned with the letter of the law, not the spirit): of course I don’t mean while here in this society, we should not catch and convict murderers who hurt others, or put people in jail who break laws. My favorite line in a movie is from WALK THE LINE. It goes something like this: When Johnny Cash gets the idea to sing at Folsom Prison and the record company says to him, “Your fans are church-going folks, they won’t like it if you perform for prisoners.” And Johnny Cash says, “Well then they aren’t Christians, are they?” COMMENT #251 [Permalink]… Nimrod Gently said on 12/8/2005 @ 4:20 am PT… “Death is certainly sexier than Lydia Cornell”?
