"armies of construction", not
"armies of destruction".

We will not ignore or forget the losses, President Bush.
This was not a war for freedom or to protect
democracy. This was a war for oil and
corporate profits. WARPROFITEERS

VETERANS FOR PEACE
Having been or being a soldier doesn't mean that you can't be an advocate for PEACE. 
"What would happen if they had a war and nobody came?"
*If you live in the Dayton/Springfield, OH area, and would be interested in starting a local Veterans for Peace Chapter email me.
It is easy to act out in a violent manner. True strength is controlling the tendency towards violence, and finding the solution that achieves enduring peace and prosperity for all involved.
This can work with individuals and nations.

REPORT FROM PALESTINE
My trip with Global Exchange Delegation. 


You have been a member of the human club since you took your first breath,
but many of us have lost sight of what it truly means to be a
" HUMAN BEING ".
Religious, political and social organizations that we struggle to belong to often interfere with our recognition of the fact that there is truly just one important group , the " Human Race ".


·       
Membership: the Human Race. You can't not belong if you fit that criteria, but the quality of your participation is what will give life meaning.  
~The World is our Family~

·        Doctrine: Its simple, do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.  "THE GOLDEN RULE"  Universal to all faiths.

·        Love is the Religion and the Universe is the Book. (Sufi Saying)

·        Our differences are what help us define ourselves. We should respect and learn from those around us so we can grow.

·        Our spiritual path is just that, "our" path. We have been blessed with Prophets, Saints and Sages who have bestowed the knowledge. What we do with it is "our" choice. The destination we seek is as close to us as our beating heart.

“ I wandered in the pursuit of my own self; I was the traveler, and I am the destination.”       Iqbzl  

Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Look, the (Father's) kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you." Gospel of Thomas
Don't wait for the "Kingdom of God" . It is here and now.
It is what we make of it. This is the gift we have been given
if we choose to use it wisely.

·        Membership to the Human Race is not by choice, but by birth, there is no hierarchy, all members are equal. 
Your membership is guaranteed by birth, no matter who you are.
How you participate will determine the quality of your life.

·        Rules: Only one, practice and follow the doctrine, "The Golden Rule".
 If we can honestly do that everything else will fall into place.  
"If you see yourself in others, how can you harm them." Buddha 

 
  What do we do in the Human Club?   

~ Explore for the meaning of “humanity”  
Humanity by Kahlil Gibran

~ Get a better understanding of what it means to be a “human being”

~ Explore our identity through our connection with each other, the universe and our spirituality, not through a material identity.    "AWARENESS", are you truly aware? If you were you would know who you really are, and why you are here. 

" You possess only whatever will not be lost in a shipwreck.",  El-Ghazali

Sharing our spiritual/religious experiences, or lack of them, is a way to discover things about ourselves not to judge others. Our differences are what help us "see" and learn. How would we know light without darkness. You couldn't get "in" if there wasn't an "out". Like two sides of a coin they make up the one coin.

~ Practice being a better human being, and caring for one another.
Yes, just one person can make a difference.

THE EARTH CHARTER; Global citizens, together, can make a difference.  

A GREAT PLACE TO START!
Make positive changes one person at a time.

~ Share our bewilderment
If we knew all the answers would we even be here? Our bewilderment is our journey. Not to be feared, but to be seen through the eyes of a child with excitement and fascination.

“Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment.

Cleverness is mere opinion.

Bewilderment brings intuitive knowledge”.

Jalaluddin Rumi

  ~ Love, and of course be "human".


                    
Dance the Dance, you know the steps, just follow you heart. 

"When one is united to the core of another,
to speak of that is to breathe the name HU,
empty of self, filled with love."
Jalal al-Din Rumi

" HU "
....In the word "huma", "hu" represents spirit, and the word "mah" in Arabic means water. In English the word "human " explains two facts which are characteristic of humanity: "hu" means God and "man" means mind, which word comes from the Sanskrit "mana", mind being the ordinary person. The two words united represent the idea of the God-conscious person; in other words HU, God, is in all things and beings, but it is man by whom He is known. "Human" therefore may be said to mean God-conscious, God-realized, or God-man.
from The Music of Life
by Hazrat Inayat Khan

Now more than ever in our world's history we have to grasp the true meaning of what it is to be a
" Human Being ".
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God",   Matthew 5:9

God is Love.   

EVERY CHILD HAS KNOWN GOD.

If Terrorism Is A Form Of Warfare,
And War Terrorizes,
Then What Exactly Is A  War On Terror?
  

~FACES OF THE LIBERATED ~  
Over 100,000 Iraqis have died in this liberation.


Since George Bush says that God
told him to be president,
and Pat Robertson has seen this
presidency as God inspired does that
mean we are living in the
HOLY U.S. EMPIRE?

How about a United States built on;
Equality
Tolerance
Compassion
Freedom, including religious
(it isn't religious freedom if one faith is pushing its doctrine on others through governmental policy)
NO EMPIRE!!!
