One Quaker's Take: April 2011
http://quakertake.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 21, 2011. The Constitution is WHAT? Sometimes saying what is real seems like cynicism but I just can't help it. The Constitution of the United States sometimes gets talked about like this:. This is not true, of course. The Constitution has long been molded to fit our own agendas and, in fact, that's what is supposed to happen. The original intent doctrine was souped up to its current horsepower in the Federalist Society- the Neo Conservative legal organization that reflects the thinking o...

One Quaker's Take: Not Sure Where This Came From
http://quakertake.blogspot.com/2011/08/not-sure-where-this-came-from.html
Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Not Sure Where This Came From. The secret is our red Kool Aid,. Fox News is where the best is made,. But it’s an old and old old brew,. For all the way that it tastes new,. It tells them just who is to blame,. For all their anger, all their pain. All their emptiness and fear,. Draw them closer, so they hear,. Of course it’s never been our fault,. Of this earth we are the salt,. Here’s the answer, always same,. Obama, Obama is his name. And once they get whipped into bold,.

A new Friend seeking meaning and Light. Christian Love and Language. I'm always struck how easily other Quakers on the 'Net explicate their faith; I feel tongue-tied and strangely inarticulate in comparison. When I wrote a little about my discomfort with Christianity expressed a couple of posts ago, it was really a crude rendering of a subject that for me is exceedingly complex - - very apparent to me when I reread my posting. I am afraid of this language which I associate with hate and exclusion. Ye...

A new Friend seeking meaning and Light. What I Did Post Operatively. Lest it be understood I have spent the entire past two months necking with Morpheus and watching police procedurals and The Best of Mother Angelica Live! I actually did some writing (though not enough), read a great deal, did work on various Friendly projects - - enough, I think to keep from going completely buggy. But as a sabbatical from work, it has a lot to be desired. Some things I learned:. And " Did thee yield? Links to this post.

A new Friend seeking meaning and Light. I'm not a bad blog writer, just a clumsy one. Which is to explain my long absence from this place. I had expected not to be writing much here, in the first place, being spring and all: May and June are busy months for any serious gardener, and I had several hundred plants raised carefully from seed, to go into the ground. Lesson #1: Baseball is a dangerous game, after all, and I'm not twenty anymore, either. She said to me, "What a rich life you have! Another lesso...

A new Friend seeking meaning and Light. As I was writing today, my partner called out: a coyote was in the barn paddock! We ran outside. The chickens and ducks were in an uproar. The coyote loped into the barn and we managed to corner it inside an old manger. What to do? Buried on page A15 in the. But because many villagers were willing to give them food, shelter — even sons for the fight — in exchange for freedom from the local authorities. Evidently, the Canadian government is upholding unjust governan...

A new Friend seeking meaning and Light. Confessions of a Bad Blogger. So I am a very bad blogger: I haven't posted since - - ack - - July. Part of it is the ruined shoulder. It seems I passed the summer either in pain (and I mean a lot. Of pain), or at physio, or at work. And tempus fugit. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

One Quaker's Take: June 2011
http://quakertake.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 09, 2011. But what about Eric Cantor? It's one thing to hear from an unelected party chairman but what about House leadership? Remember the criterion: No matter how cynical I get it's hard to keep up. Perhaps there should be a bronze, a silver and a gold every day. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What is this blog about? Lets just keep the two as separate as we can- so we don't start hanging one another in the town square. What's all this stuff about Lily? When I see someone in politics doing ...
