The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

Thought for the Day: 24 March 2026

“When a man gives up his moral values, there is nothing left.” A line from the series, M*A*S*H, spoken by a character named Col. Sherman T. Potter. He was replying to a soldier who was speaking about how his morality was that any person any human should not have sex outside of marriage. Col. Potter was encouraging the soldier because the soldier had to defend his morals against nasty and bullying fellow soldiers who claimed “he does not like girls.” The issue was not whether he liked girls. The question was his belief in procreative sex and how strong a feeling that was for him.

Kind of explains me when I was growing up. I relate to that soldier with morals. However, I do not believe I should force my moral beliefs upon others, just as bullies should not be forcing their IMMORAL beliefs upon others. I can TEACH others my moral beliefs. I should not PREACH my moral beliefs and values to others, just as homophobic bastards in churches should not PREACH their homophobic beliefs to others or PREACH their beliefs about whether clergy can only be straight men and women and LGBT+ should not be clergy.

Along those lines, it is not right to preach and judge humans with regard to recreational sex. If humans are unable to produce children, perhaps due to different reasons, they should be able to choose recreational sex. Such recreational sex may go along with a same-sex relationship. There should be no judgments made by human beings. Such people who do such judgments are evil, influenced by demons who promote a lack of confidence, and are influenced by the evil one some call Lucifer or the devil or Satan or…

Jesus Christ said, “judge not lest you be judged” (Gospel book of Matthew, chapter 7, verses 1-2). PREACHERS do too much f***ing judging of others. Those who do the judging anyway and use the “sin book” (Romans) are mixed up cowards who lack confidence about living our human lives together in community and society and living in an environment with peace and justice. Peace cannot happen without justice.
