pic. I know personally, an internationally renown activist. She is constantly working to use her life, her body, her very being... to save humanity. Seems there is no personal price she wouldn’t pay. She doesn't play to play. She plays to win. I don’t know any others besides her, Malala, Aung San... This is why the future is doomed, unless you join her. Now. (She is shy. I’ll not name and embarrass her.)

(M) A great quote.

Loving, here - a reason I don't believe in "Miracles" is, that is NOT WHAT A LOVING 'FATHER' DOES!!! detail

FB note to a really loving, homeless outreach, church group that has been very good to me, at times:

Hi friends. This is weighing on my mind, so I share. No reply expected or needed, and please always KNOW, I NEED YOU to disconnect from me when I become an unhealthy force in your lives. 

I don't believe in physical Miracles, Healings, etc. There are many reasons, but the one that is the most important to me - THIS IS NOT WHAT A LOVING 'FATHER' DOES. I mean, a loving Father hears his child's desperate plea for help, but sits on the sidelines, NOT HELPING, until some 'believer' comes and Praises Him, Tells Him how much she or he Loves Him, that He is Great... and then when that Father, IF that Father, hears such an intercessor, then, and only then, that Father gets off his ass and does something???? That is not what Loving does! That is NOT my Father. WE are the ONLY miracle that was put here - none other. The Father is hands off now. It is up to us, His Loving now OUR Loving in our Hearts, to be the Miracle. No other Miracle is needed. Your brother forever, no matter what

Take back the House and keep the Senate 2014; 2. Limit future warming by c02 to NO MORE THAN 1 DEGREES C, NOT to the 2 deg C international goal that is Ecocide; 3. Take back the economy locally and globally, for we citizens of the world (not just the US). You’ve already sided with the Tories (GOP) unless you are wagging all-out unviolent war, day in, day out, TILL WE WIN. NEVER has so much been at stake for US, and for Creation.
