“I’m not perfect, I’m human” is an oft-spoken and well-regarded belief about the human situation. Perfection, and those who demand it are seen by many as overly demanding, fascist, unrealistic and unpleasant. This belief has sprung clearly into the forefront, as with all things these days, through its political implications. The whole Trumper, birther,...
The Greatness of God
God based religion is good but it can also be great. This greatness isn’t at all what people imagine it to be: the mega millions and mansions of the televangelists, the absolute centuries old decrees of Rome, or the populist power and will of extremist followers and their hate and fear based political victories....
On Faith
People think of faith as some lofty, religious philosophical value or agenda. It really isn’t. Fath is what gives us the courage to live and fight.

On Class
Class is really what’s running politics these days. Populous issues are really class issues.

The definition of reconciliation is: the restoration of friendly relations and the action of making one view or belief compatible with another. Here in Canada, this word came to the forefront due to the Idle No More movement of Indigenous people and in light of the thousands of murdered and missing indigenous woman inquiry....
Saying No to Hate in Charlottesville
I think today’s tragedy is the result of much hate and ignorance. There has been and is much courage and honor in taking a stand against it. In Nazi Germany, there were no protesters. That’s why we must protest and speak up always. It’s so wrong to kill and injure those who are standing...
How to Fix Our World
In our bottom on top, greedy money and low class/intellect status quo on top world, where we live in a state of social communism, where all opinions matter and have equal validity, no matter the morality and intellect involved, we have lost all boundaries, standards, and moral and sensical code. That’s why Trump is...
Austerity: The Politics That Kills
Austerity is a political system and economic philosophy that benefits very few people. Those it benefits are the very rich, and those who derive emotional benefit from its policies and ideology. Its a bullying, abusive, selfish and noncompassionate policy, and its proud of it. Small and medium-size businesses and even large ones are hurt...
