Truth & People

As my last few posts have intimated, I am increasingly suspicious of organizations of truth that seems to lead more toward the defense of ideas than it does the defense of what has been created—especially, but certainly not limited to, human beings.


My soul is sore when I learn how our people are tortured, when I learn how the rights of those created in the image of God are violated.

-- Óscar Romero


I pledge allegiance to the Flag
of the United States of America,
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one Nation under God, indivisible,
with liberty and justice for ALL. (emphasis added)

Do we still believe this?  Belief is an active stance, not a passive one.
