Reality 2017

What is happening to our country? Innocent people traumatized by police at a traffic stop because they are mistaken for Muslims. Black citizens gunned down. Regulations that protect our environment, health, and the earth secretly shredded. Name calling. Reneging on treaties. Refusal to acknowledge science. Low brow, thin skinned, lacking any empathy for others—describes the man leading this country.

I guess big oil and coal interests, big corporations, and CEOs worth millions aren’t satisfied with their lot. They need more— more drilling, less restrictions on dumping wastes, more money.
Can anyone explain to me why so many folks in power want to deprive women of the right to their bodies, keep wages low for the working poor, cut back on programs designed to help, and chip away at the rights of LGBTQ ?

All the while too many people raise their Bible and use it as a crudgle.

They excuse discrimination of particular groups.

We must be reading different versions or different Bibles. Each day I see the book I read twisted, distorted, and ignored. They must use White-Out to obliterate the passages that don’t fit in with their world view.
