"TRAGICALLY, NO ONE ALIVE CAN SPEAK FOR ME..." SL (MORE...)
What if I died, and some were curious to know Truly, who I was?
Tragically, no one alive can speak for me. I have yearned for that,
to be with another, others, that are so far down the Path, so firmly
on the Path, because there is only one path, Pure Heart, Pure
Humanity, that we could finish each other's thoughts, sentences,
and be a skunk works working out infinitely more rapidly what
it is to be Humane, Universally Loving, in this world; before it is
too late; unless it is too late already.

But I can speak for me, and do:
Start Loving interviews
And one would think, that in a city filled with "peace activists,"
so called, both resident and transient, that there would be many
who could speak for me. But there are NONE. In fact, most
so called 'peace activists' that are acquainted with me are the
last who can speak for me, or in Truth, of me, as the Scribes
and Pharisees 'knew' Jesus well, but in deed knew him less than
any; and out of their hatred and jealousy (un self-recognized)
could speak nothing but lies, misunderstandings and slander.
More in a moment.
There are those who are dead that can speak for me - Lincoln,
Rachel Corrie, Hans Jaggerstatter, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Jesus (His
life and words; NOT the Fatally Perverted Church),
MLK Jr, Gandhi, Romero, Eleanor Roosevelt, Dave Dellinger, and
their ilk. Albert Adler can speak of me extremely well, and quite
well Abe Maslow and probably Viktor Frankl.
Alive there are a few that can speak knowledgeably, intelligently OF
me especially Diane Wilson, but to some degree also Col. Ann
Wright, Fr. Louis Vitalle, Beverly Austin, Lizzie Arizona Hourican;
and even possibly Sr. Margaret McKenna and Kathy Kelly. Julie
and Steve to an extremely limited degree; and also Joe, my JW
friend from Canada.

Amusingly, those that can best speak of me include Secret Service
officers Elzie (sp?), Kevin, Chris and Tony (now at State Dept.)
Not any more than the Scribes and Pharisees who watched Him so
carefully would have had either the insight or Truthfulness to speak
of Jesus in a way that was True, so those that have been
physically in proximity to me closely these recent years are the
LAST IN THE WORLD who can speak for or of me - Most especially
last in the world - J. Marx (aka Tom Buchanan, David Drumlin, Skimpole),
followed by Elijah, and sadly, even my Beloved Ellen.

St. ArchBishop Oscar Romero - Murdered Yesterday. 'The Violence of Love."
DN! Salvadorans Begin Marking 30th Anniversary of Romero Murder
Archbishop Oscar Romero Quotes
Archbishop Oscar Romero
"We have never preached violence, except the violence of love,which left Christ nailed to a cross, the violence that we musteach do to ourselves, to overcome our selfishness and such cruelinequalities among us. The violence we preach is not the violenceof the sword, the violence of hatred. It is the violence of love,of brotherhood, the violence that wills to beat weapons intosickles for work.
"Those committed to the poor must share the same fate as the poor.
"A church that suffers no persecution but enjoys the privileges and support of the things of the earth - beware! - is not the true church of Jesus Christ. A preaching that does not point out sin is not the preaching of the gospel. A preaching that makes sinners feel good, so that they are secured in their sinful state, betrays the gospel's call. (1/22/78).
"When the church hears the cry of the oppressed it cannot but denounce the social structures that give rise to and perpetuate the misery from which the cry arises (8/6/78).
"The church would betray its own love for God and its fidelity to the gospel if it stopped being . . . a defender of the nights of the poor . . . a humanizer of every legitimate struggle to achieve a more just society . . . that prepares the way for the true reign of God in history (8/6/79).
"I do not believe in death without resurrection. If they kill me I will rise again in the people of El Salvador."
"Aspire not to have more but to be more.
"Let us not tire of preaching love; it is the force that will overcome the world.
"Defence of human rights, equality, and freedom… is a matter of policy… rooted in the gospel.
"The poor have shown the church the true way to go. A church that does not speak out from the side of the poor is not the true church of Jesus.
"The gospel is the great defender and proclaimer of all the great fundamental rights of the person. The fundamental right to…… Food & Water, Shelter; Protection; Medicine; Education; Work; Rest; Freedom; Respect; Dignity; Fullness of Life.
"The violence we preach is not the violence of the sword; ... it is the violence of love.
"Let my blood be a seed of freedom.
"I will not tire of declaring that if we really want an effective
end to violence we must remove the violence that lies at the root
of all violence: structural violence, social injustice, exclusion
of citizens from the management of the country, repression. All
this is what constitutes the primal cause, from which the rest
flows naturally. September 23, 1979.
"I'm deeply impressed by that moment when Christ stands alone
before the world figured in Pilate. The truth is left alone, his
own followers have been afraid. Truth is fearfully daring, and
only heroes can follow the truth. So much so that Peter, who has
said he will die if need be, flees like a coward and Christ
stands alone.
"Let's not be afraid to be left alone if it's for the sake of the
truth. Let's be afraid to be demagogs, coveting the people's sham
flattery. If we don't tell them the truth, we commit the worst
sin: betraying the truth and betraying the people. Christ would
rather be left alone, but able to say before the world figured in
Pilate: Everyone who hears my voice belongs to the truth. Feast
of Christ the King, 1979.
"Would that the many bloodstained hands in our land were lifted
up to the Lord with horror of their stain to pray that he might
cleanse them. But let those who, thanks to God, have clean
hands -- the children, the sick, the suffering -- lift up their
innocent and suffering hands to the Lord like the people of
Israel in Egypt. The Lord will have pity and will say, as he did
to Moses in Egypt, "I have heard my people's cry of wailing. It
is the prayer that God cannot fail to hear. September 18, 1977
"The church is calling to sanity, to understanding, to love. It
does not believe in violent solutions. The church believes in
only one violence, that of Christ, who was nailed to the cross.
That is how today's gospel reading shows him, taking upon himself
all the violence of hatred and misunderstanding, so that we
humans might forgive one another, love one another, feel
ourselves brothers and sisters. November 20, 1977.
"We have never preached violence, except the violence of love,
which left Christ nailed to a cross, the violence that we must
each do to ourselves, to overcome our selfishness and such cruel
inequalities among us. The violence we preach is not the violence
of the sword, the violence of hatred. It is the violence of love,
of brotherhood, the violence that wills to beat weapons into
sickles for work. November 27, 1977
"Who knows if the one whose hands are bloodied with Father
Grande's murder, or the one who shot Father Navarro, if those who
have killed, who have tortured, who have done so much evil, are
listening to me? Listen, there in your criminal hideout, perhaps
already repentant, you too are called to forgiveness. December
18, 1977
"A preaching that does not point out sin is not the preaching of
the gospel. A preaching that makes sinners feel good so that they
become entrenched in their sinful state, betrays the gospel's
call. A preaching that does not discomfit sinners but lulls them
in their sin leaves Zebulun and Naphtali in the shadow of death.
"A preaching that awakens, a preaching that enlightens -- as when
a light turned on awakens and of course annoys a sleeper -- that
is the preaching of Christ, calling, "wake up! Be converted!"
this is the church's authentic preaching. Naturally, such
preaching must meet conflict, must spoil what is miscalled
prestige, must disturb, must be persecuted. It cannot get along
with the powers of darkness and sin. January 22, 1978
"And so, brothers and sisters, I repeat again what I have said
here so often, addressing by radio those who perhaps have caused
so many injustices and acts of violence, those who have brought
tears to so many homes, those who have stained themselves with
the blood of so many murders, those who have hands soiled with
tortures, those who have calloused their consciences, who are
unmoved to see under their boots a person abased, suffering,
perhaps ready to die. To all of them I say: no matter your
crimes. They are ugly and horrible, and you have abased the
highest dignity of a human person, but God calls you and forgives
you. And here perhaps arises the aversion of those who feel they
are laborers from the first hour. How can I be in heaven with
those criminals? Brothers and sisters, in heaven there are no
criminals. The greatest criminal, once he has repented of his
sins, is now a child of God. September 24, 1978

BEING Immediate Family TO the least of these.
[Thomas, Jesus, King, Gandhi,
Teresa, Romero, Eleanor Roosevelt,
Pr. Obama, Michelle Obama,
Diane Wilson, Col. Ann Wright.]
Dis-Respectability:
EVERYTHING less than, EVERYTHING else besides
BEING IMMEDIATE FAMILY TO
the least of these our global brothers and sisters;
that is, NOT being Universal Love incarnate /
Immediate Family TO ALL,
ESPECIALLY the poor in
Spirit (enemy, wicked, foreigner)
and materiality." SL

My understanding is that living with Gandhi was pretty much unbearable....
My understanding is that living with Gandhi was pretty much unbearable.
I guess it was just as bad living with ML King, Jr, Jesus, Romero....
I guess I knew that but I hadn't thought of it for a long while.
I've NEVER heard any suggestion that they INTENDED to be unbearable to live with;
Quite the contrary.
It just goes with the territory;
with the Call.
My father was profoundly difficult to live with.
Greatest man
I've ever personally known.
(First time I've ever thought of that.
It TOTALLY was not his intent to be so.)

We simplify to the point of TOTAL DISTORTION AND ERROR
when we make a big deal of the murder of King, Gandhi,
Jesus, Romero....
The point of them is not that they RISKED Dying, and WERE
murdered, killed, DIED. NO!
The POINT of them is that EVERY DAY THEY WERE DYING,
OUT OF UNIVERSAL LOVE TOTALLY GIVING OF THEIR LIFE,
TOTALLY GIVING OF THEIR FLESH FOR THE WELLBEING OF
THOSE SUFFERING.

WE are to be a SHINING EXAMPLE of such Love.

Life's, Love's, Joy's DNA
I keep this on the lefthand side of http://www.youtube.com/StartLoving2
"Stay with God (Universal Love / Conscience) and all will be Good." SL
"Love is Universal, or it is not Love. Love is Joyful, or it is not Love. Love
is entirely about the-least-of-these, or it is not Love. Love involves Courage,
or it is not Love." SL
"I adore Jesus, and you, far too much to be "a Christian."" SL
'My problem is not the violent racists. My problem is the Good folks that say -
this is terrible, but we can't fix it yet, not in this way, not so fast, I'm not quite
ready to put MY life on the line, I can't devote myself now because....'
MLK Jr paraphrase
"The Perfect (and only) Solution for Joy and eliminating all needless suffering
both personal and interpersonal, individual and global IS UNIVERSAL LOVE
(total and complete devotion to the least-of-these our Family in the world).
To BE this Solution is why our genes have us here. Entertaining ourselves is
NOT why were created, and can never satisfy us; but it will destroy us." SL
"God (Universal Love) with certainty thrusts us INTO "life's storms," to save
the Life of the drowning, for the Joy of it." SL
"You have chosen one of two possible lives - Family with ALL or Family with
some. Family with ALL IS Joy, Life, Love, Peace-of-Heart, Heaven. Family with
some is Cancer - the Death of your Humanity and our death as Humanity." SL
"WAR IS INESCAPABLE; Hostility, Blood and Killing are NOT; only Heroic, Loving
Self Sacrifice is the alternative." SL
"Leadership is clawing yourself, and therefore maybe others, away from
cowardice, off of the sidelines and into the good fight." SL
"Good IS God. They are identical. IDENTICAL. Period." SL
"We're born to work for Humanity; NEVER for money." SL
"Live for Joy; never for pleasure." SL
"There is but one True Religion - that practiced by Jesus, Badshah Kahn,
Eleanor Roosevelt, Teresa, Rabbi Heschel, Gandhi, Romero... - Universal
Love. There are no True Organized Religions today, but there are individuals
OF the True Religion - Universal Love - including some of you!" SL
"Life is found [only] in total devotion to the-least-of-these. Run there,
and Live!" SL
"Ask not what Pres. Obama can do for you. Ask what YOU can do for your
brothers and sisters in need." SL

"If you value pleasure then you believe what you Please. If you value Love,
Life, Joy, Peace-of-Heart then you value Truth of what serves the least of
these. No 3rd option is available." SL
"Live for JOY, never for pleasure." SL
"Wealth of Life, Joy, Love and Peace-of-Heart are found in the service of the
least of these. If not there, not Joy, Life, etc, but rather pleasure." SL
"Love is the greedily taking of responsibility for the-least-of-these, or it is not
Love. Love is Universal, or it is not Love. Love involves Courage, or it is not
Love." SL
"Do unto the least of these all that you would have them do unto you." JC

Can one be Saved / Reborn to Full Life / Humanity? Some positive indicators:
Can one be Saved, Reborn to Full Life / Humanity? Some indicators:
* One yearns for a life that feels like that of Jesus, Gandhi, Teresa, King, Romero,
Eleanor Roosevelt, Lincoln....
* One couldn't imagine choosing to stay within The Matrix.
* In the movie Contact, one would choose to be Jodi Foster.
* One admires, has an affinity with, the military.
* One too would have run into the twin towers.

The Perfect Measure of Love: How far we live from the Least of These our Human Family
"If you Love the Poor, you will share their fate." Oscar Romero (assassinated).
[Your child gets ill and to save them costs everything that you own - you gladly
sell everything, right? The poor child IS YOUR child. No? Then THAT is
how poor you are, THAT is how much you do NOT Love. Perfect measure!
"Love cannot remain passive in the face of suffering [, sooooo if you are passive
in the face of suffering, it is not Love]." Teresa of Calcutta
"Love [IS AS] I have Loved." Jesus. [Jesus Love, Jesus Life was a Perfect
Measure.]
Anonymous - Think of the person that you most despise in the world.
THAT is how much you Love.
