Being human
What are you good at?
What I do well is a short list: serving others with a joyful attitude, songwriting, writing, and biblical interpretation. The order indicates my confidence.

A futile but enjoyable ride
What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?
Everybody paint the ceiling with all the things we have not bee. Brush in all the things we have not done or seen. Have a feeling for the one whose feet has been through the fir. Let the have not have his one desire.
So go the words of a song – Have Not – by yours truly and his son.
I am not so naive to think that having it all amounts to possessing every gadget, every invention, every bit of expertise there is and so on. My spiritual vision has taught me that everything I see is mine, not that I actually own them, but they are within reach, with one distinct roadblock. Not enough time. Life’s breath will pass before I get to know them – have an intimate relationship with everything I can see – and yet they are mine. So having it all is basically enjoying curiosity’s limp, hike, train, flight and levitation. Yes.

They think we are blind
Tons of wool and they have no sheep. Neighbours and practically no friends. Everyone is an enemy to the United States and Israel and they are neither elect nor choice. Many of us have wool resistant eyes and the crimes of the United States and Israel have their day in court and it is not a vigilante “wild wild west” justice. We remember when weapons of mass destruction could not be found in Iraq, and we remember when the Jewish people needed a home and Palestinians were practically the only residents of the Holy Land, and the modus operandi was theft . We can see that Abraham is the farthest thing from role model for the politicians of Israel, America, or any of the Islamic Republics. They can stop throwing wool about their respective heritages.
All their important strengths come from 20th century Germany
Israeli dominance cones from the patterns of civic government used in South Africa before Nelson Mandela. The US dominates the world because of the German loot it collected at the end of WWII. Rocketry and ballistic engineering are German strongholds. Is it any wonder that the technology developed by the Nazi regime make America great and mighty?
What will Israel say when its decades of appeasing religious hardliners is called into question? Israel will say the Jewish people do not need to be told by anyone how to conduct their self-defense, because all that matters is the survival of the Jewish people. It may be helpful to recall that Moses was so disgusted with his people that he asked his divine master to blot him out. It may also be helpful to recall that the Jewish people, upon returning from exile onto the auspices of a Persian government, resumed their racist and his xenophobic policies in the reconstituted Judea. The Jewish people and the Israeli state are more enigmatic than most peoples and states. It is time to realize that the self talk that keeps the Levant in perpetual turmoil and devastating criminality needs to end. New Testament times, which is a profound interest to many Christians, show us how Christians were persecuted by zealous jews, chief among them, Saul of Tarsus. Violence against innocent people, violence against people who were expressing a personal religious view, cannot be forgotten. Today Israel is careful to allow protest, but for how long, and as the record has shown, the religious zealots will eventually dominate is really politics.
Destroying one’s neighbour cannot be a policy that stands, and the passion behind settler violence and Palestinian resistance needs some cold water.
