One God – One World
One Race – One Caste
A comment at Glenn Beaton’s Blog, the Aspen beat: Perhaps more than Ds harbor and cultivate that hatred. I am thinking, for example, of self-regarding permanent government types. Also, I wonder if Democrat now identifies that party. I should think CCP of America might be more functionally accurate. And under all of that, who owns the USA as a nation, American citizens who abide the US Constitution and laws, or, the CIA-FPE and their phalanxes of American and unAmerican persons — e.g., Scientists, Monied Families, Bankers — who do not abide the US Constitution and laws.
Then there is this, inspired by Ezekiel 18:1-9 and an affirmation termed by Tillich Hebrew Prophetism and The Protestant Principle:
What is lawful is not always what is Right. What is decorous is not always what is Dharmic. What is process is not always what is Principle. What is wanted is not always what is needful. What is religious is not always what is Godly. Law, decorum, process, want, and religion are passing and corruptible. Right, Dharma, Principle, Needful, and Godliness are permanent and incorruptible. This is the message of the Hebrew Prophets, The Church, and The Reformers. I think it is a modern message, too.
Plant in the tender hearts of children, the seeds of love, sympathy, truth, justice, charity, compassion, repentance and self-control. That is the prime duty of all who deal with children. When the father asks the child to tell someone at the door that he is not at home, or when the son asks his brother to reply to a phone call, saying he has gone out, the vice of dishonesty is implanted in the child. Do not burden the tender brains with all kinds of lumber, information that can never be put to use, facts that warp and twist the truth, and so on. Teach them only as much as they can use beneficially and as much as can be of direct help to them in their lives. Train their character more than their brains. The parents first and foremost, teachers next, comrades, playmates and companions next, and the various levels of society later – these shape the character of the children, and the destiny of the country!
