Who are the sinners who are the saints?

Men debating doctrinal truth and hunger surrounds them .

Will the sinners be saved without penance ?

They seem confounded in their lack logic babling

Babylon, Jerusalem,Soddom and Gommorah.

poem about las vegas

Flashing lights blinking, bedazzling, mezmorizing, blinding .

Our tinsel ,Our town ,Our downfall,

Quick fix made easy by a coin in a machine.

Questioning war

was listening to Utah Phillips the other day and he posed some questions about being against the war , fake patriotism, and the "support the troops" people. Utah was a former member of the military himself so he's no basher.

Dennis the pinko (old entry)

I was preaching the gospel of Kucinich at work today and a dear friend of mine was saying " you know my friend researched this donny kucivich guy you keep talking about and he's just a communist front you want a pinko for president."

Seeds of fascism

My general philosophy was the current political landscape used fear in order to gain support. I only had half of the equation correct. Hatred is the primary governing factor in bolstering support amoung the masses. It has always been a tactic in fascist regimes .

Jesus and torture

Let me first begin by saying I am a Christian. I am fed up of hearing these presidential hopefulls and their bantor about the right to torture. These men claim to be Christians yet they approve of the same state approved brutality cause teh death of the one they call their saviour i think these people need to seriously check their values when they say they are pro- life and pro-Christ.

I'm pro-life

I know this is a strange headline considering my political affiliation but allow me to clarify. George Carlin said it best " Conservatives only care about the pre-born once youre born youre f%/ed....until youre 18 and can go to war " .
