Today we observe the accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King


Today we observe the accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King. As most of you know I am a strong promoter of non violent protest. I have studied many people, ranging from many different cultures, with one common goal, and that goal is PEACE. The first person I ever studied when it came to non violence was Dr. Martin Luther king and then I went on to study Mahatma Gandhi. Then in 2007 I became a fan of the late Benazir Bhutto who was assonated in the Middle East for her beliefs. I am currently doing a case study of the Muslim religion. I understand that I am Christian, I hold everything that is stated in the Nicene Creed, and I understand I am Catholic, which does not mean I cannot study other cultures and other philosophies of peace. Those of you, who know any moderate Muslims, know they promote peace. I have friends who are Muslim and it has always been my goal not to be ignorant and I think that was the goal of Dr. Martin Luther king. If anything I think Dr. Martin Luther’s king main battle was with “ignorance”. I cannot tell you how much it hurts me when I hear the term “rag head” or the term “nigger”. I am Catholic and I often get called “idol worshiper”.

Most of you who are educated know that this is not the case. I do not fight battles with my fists or with weapons, I use my voice, and we all know the pen is mightier than the sword. Actually the Catholic religion is a big promoter of peace and equality. You will see people from all races and colors in my church. We as Catholics are always educating ourselves on not only the bible but other Christian texts as well, created by the Dr’s of the church so that we can deepen our Christian faith through their knowledge and prayer. My hat goes to everyone mentioned in this post. I can only hope that I can battle ignorance as well as these people. I am a strong promoter of equality. I see neither black nor white! I only see the potential for “humanity”. Those who support racism know that you will not win this fight. Those of us from the new generation will come together and hold hands, red, yellow, black, and white. WE WILL CREATE A BETTER WORLD. I stand on the shoulders of the Woman’s suffrage movement founded by Alice Paul; I stand on the shoulders of Marin Luther King, and on the Shoulders of Benazir Bhutto. May their memory live on in our hearts and may we continue to destroy ignorance and promote education through humanity.

All I ask with this post that everyone is respectful and post intelligent replies. The first order for business is the growing concern that our President is and has always been a terrorist. Barack Husain Obama has not nor ever been a terrorist. The part “Husain Obama” is like saying “John Smith” in our culture. The second item for business in this post is addressing the negative reflections on Obama’s idea to close Guantanamo Bay. For those of you that don’t know, that Prison has been a center for extremist thought. Actually it was a major communications area for the Arabian Peninsula. The next question I pose is why many people who are US Citizens must go through extra screening just because they are Muslim?

I a Christian, embrace people of the Muslim faith, my religion, Catholic, promotes peace, even to people of other races and religions. We do not agree with what the extremists are doing. As citizens of the US constitution, the people of the Muslim faith, along with people of other faiths, are endowed to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In the Devolvement of the Constitution even people who enter this country have automatically GOD GIVEN RIGHTS. For those of you that don’t know the Muslim religion is a combination of Jewish and Christian beliefs. I understand that it came after the establishment of Christianity but it is still a religion.

I don’t care if you believe a Cheese Sandwich came down and created purple people and wated for aliens to take you away! Even if you believe in that cheese sandwich, you still have God Given rights under our constitution. Granted those who are US citizens receive more rights. This war is another “Vietnam”. I do not believe as a historian that this war can be won. This war somehow tuned into a war over oil. This is not a war over terrarium, which that changed when Obama came into office. For those of you that don’t know “Daddy Bush” owns just about all the oil rights in America. With concern to National Security, I believe that we need to improve security, but do it in a human way. Treat everyone the same, do not separate people WHO ARE US CITIZENS and count them as a threat just because they are Muslim. I say we get everyone from the Middle East.

I say we line these Military people at our borders, and close this Nation tighter than a sardine can. That way if someone does commit an act of terbium, we can take care of that on the spot. Not every Muslim is a terrorist! I sponsor a kid in the Middle East whose parents are suppressed by EXTREMIST Muslims. I would like to end this article with a proclamation of faith. I believe in God, THE FATHER ALMIGHTY, I believe in Jesus Christ, Holy Spirit, and our most Holy Ever Virgin Mary. I just accept those of other faiths and will always be a shoulder to cry on and vent to. For everything I believe in please refer to the Nicene Creed, which all of Christianity was based.
