So what are you saying?

So You are white, or gay, or Jew, Muslim, atheist, Asian, fat, Boney. So what? We differ on the plight of America, world views, and social/cultural events. And?  Our sense of style is different and we like different music., who cares? 

I believe that God gave everyone free will, and who am I to take it from you? You have the option to do whatever it is you wish under the sun as long as you dont break the law. but lets remember that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. I love science! Science teaches us so much, but yet we tend to treat science like some treat the bible... you pull out the parts that you want to prove an argument, instead of gaining self awareness from the whole. As a result you become a hypocrite.

As a human, general freedoms should be a given to all; but It isn't. Freedom should be a personal venture. I cant take away your freedoms. No one should. So why do you choose to take mine?  How does one have the freedom to say that 2 men should be married, or "under God" should be removed from the pledge, but don't want me to kneel and say a prayer at a football game, use Jesus name on tv (unless in a joking or damning manner) or wear a turban in an airport without being stopped, or even get to go on Fox News and express himself in a dignified manner, while being completely qualified to speak of different religions without have ones own be brought into question, or be bombarded with senseless non factual rants (Reza Aslan). 

 In life, there is one constant and it is that you will believe in something. Some choose Jesus, some choose Allah, the sun, a golden calf, a celebrity, Stephen Hawking, or themselves. We all know, mans biggest goal in life is to BE God, therefor he doesn't have to serve one. 

People are lazy, shiftless, corner cutting, bigoted, self loathing, prideful individuals. And I'm not talking about the shell of race, gender, or culture. The shell seems to be the divisive topic that those in true control like to keep us fighting about. We fight over race, religion, creed, money, hair color, wardrobe, and perception  because its the easiest to see. Yet when was the last time we fought over the inner part? when have you fought over Love, health, knowledge, freedom, right, or most important.... intent. The part that CANT be seen is intent. That's where the conundrum is. Psychology tells us that their are 4 personality types. These 4 traits are in every one of these "outer differences" that we love to fight over. But they seem to go out the window when we bring up a stereotype that is used to belittle another to make ourselves feel good. 

I am a Christian and some of the worst scapegoat cliches are used by those who claim to be Christian. Ie, "only God can judge me", and "God knows my heart". It needs to be changed. In the same vain, those that oppose love to use parts of the bible to condemn those that follow it. The bible is not a history book, nor was it in chronological order. If you know this as well as the true history, you'll know that most of what people "think" it encourages is untrue. Again, there were certain  personality types that twisted it then to use it against people, which is still present today. Remember, there is nothing new under the sun. To disparage one to uplift the other is easily summed up by the pot and kettle. 

People need to become masters of their own thoughts. No matter what it is. If you become a doctor, you must be educated, learn question, make mistakes, grow, and daily be a practitioner. whatever your beliefs are, be a practitioner of them with the sincerity of a great doctor, there would be less of the bickering, whining, wars, and atrocities because of differences that are only visible to the eye.  None of us know why we were put here, so lets work together to get to the destination we are trying to go. I look forward to seeing you on the other side. That's MY belief. 

Thank you all for your time and reading and passing along these words. 

Are blacks merely a commodity to the american society?

Good day all, my apologies for being absent lately. I look to definitely post 3-4times a week. Here we go for today....

The following comment was posed by one of my favorite people to debate with on Facebook. It is the following:

"I find it interesting that so many people have convinced themselves that we are living in a post-racial society, yet the three of the biggest news stories of the day lay bare the fact that we are not. The Trayvon Martin case, the Paula Deen story, and the SCOTUS' decisions on affirmative action and the VRA show that both individuals and our government still cling to antiquated views (masked as progressive) about about race and the place of black people in American society."

. and it made me think.

 Here is my thoughts:

As Blacks, we don't have a common strand to which we fight for anymore. It's sad to say, it died with MLK and the other black leaders of the day. Unfortunately, the NAACP is not seeming to be in the corner of blacks, but almost as a "UN" of black delegates with a unique agenda, instead of one that encompasses a group. They have become in essence, what our congress has become- for the people(of congress), by the people (of congress). Just as Congress has blatantly disregarded what constituents 

Our extent of action is to uprise solely with a universal enemy, which is always the most easy thing to "hate" (9/11,Terrorists bombers), or against a white person saying the N word (Paula deen, Kramer, so many more), We as blacks are the most easily appeased people out there. As long as an apology is given, we are fine. In relation to a person who offends gays, there is a steep penalty to pay. You will have to do PSA's, get counseling, speak at a conference, give money, lose sponsors and job(s), and possibly are cast down in society. If you Offend Jewish people,(except for Mel Gibson) there is hell to pay. These groups seem to have more pride and content for what they are. For us, an apology and the obligatory handshake and photo-op from your black representative of choice, Sharpton, or Jackson. Afterwards, show up at a heat game, sit next to Jay-Z, and appear on a tyler perry sitcom, and all is forgiven. we wont even support our own who is being castrated for other outspoken blurbs. We didn't take up for Dave Chapelle, Tracey Morgan, or any others. even if the comments are wrong that they say, we do NOT jump on board to protect our own from excessive abuse. we look at it and do nothing. 

A big part of this societal non-interference is Because of this, big business knows we are nothing more than a cheap conduit to a financial pool. Government is no longer an entity set up to govern and instill laws and order, it is a business; albeit one run poorly. but it is widely understood that if you Want to sell a product, and test it out first.... Give it to a rapper. It'll spread faster than anything. We are the low cost cheap alternative. We are blackberry today,while whites are apple, Hispanics are android, and all the rest mixed in.  So, will our government business ever stop trying to hold on to the tried and true indentured customer test base, no! And why should they, we aren't demanding change. We just sit back and talk about, while writing a post defending the need to love beyonce and indulge in hip hop/R&b divas.
