About Me

If you are reading this because you have read something I have written and wish to "figure me out" or find some flaw I may have in order to use it against me, then I truly appreciate your interest. I seek people who are willing to let me teach them and people who will truly listen to me. See, I have found the cure for war, poverty, and even death. The problem with this discovery as it is with most major discoveries, is that no one seems to want to listen to what I have to say. Why is it important to me that people listen and learn from me? Because it is the first phase in curing these problems. One does not have to believe me. I do not seek followers. I do not seek money. I seek your eyes and your eardrum. I seek your understanding. I speak only things which are true. I do not condemn those who disagree with me nor do I mock what is said to me in disagreement. I prefer conversation to debate. I prefer teaching to proving. I prefer a lot of things which will probably never occur. Metaphorically speaking I feel as though I have the cure for cancer, but no one is willing to take the medicine or even believe me when I say that I have it. It saddens me that I may die before these things are revealed to the world. It saddens me that every 24 hours we as a people suffer through these things, but don't have to suffer even one more minute. Though I am faced with these challenges, I refuse to give up. Our lives depend on it. Literally. Thank you for reading. Peace.

More About Me

I'm passionate about

Peace and truth are the only things that I feel are worth being passionate about. My character disallows me to be passionate about anything else.

An idea worth spreading

What I actually have is not an idea per se, but a reality. GOD is. :-)

Talk to me about

If you could speak of peace and of truth then I will be more than satisfied in our conversations.

People don't know that I'm good at

Absolutely nothing.

My TED Story

When I have one interesting enough to speak of.... I will speak of it.

  • A comment on Conversation: Abortion should be legal and encouraged.

    Apr 24 2012: Kill it. Don't kill it. Make it legal to kill it so that it is not murder. Justify whether or not it should be killed. Protest. Vote. Argue. Tell stories for or against in search of empathy. Describe it as a living being that has every right to live as we do or as a parasite. Choose wisely for the fate of existence is in the balance. PEACE
  • A comment on Conversation: Death is nothing to be apprehensive or afraid of.

    Apr 24 2012: The truth is that it doesn't matter what one believes about death nor does it matter how one feels about it. None of these things will prevent the inevitable from occurring. I believe a more productive focus would be the meaning and purpose of life and what one can do to extend it eternally so that death never occurs. Now, it is easy to read my last sentence and think of it as an impossibility, but while you're doing so please keep in mind that you are running out of time and can not count on the "next generation" to carry on the endeavor. PEACE
  • A comment on Talk: Julia Sweeney: Letting go of God

    Apr 24 2012: To Byron Gordon, you stated, "for someone with a Masters in Science Ed, I'm somewhat surprised that you believe in God as fervently as you do." Well, I'm somewhat surprised that you would be somewhat surprised since it was a catholic preist who pioneered the big bang theory. With that in mind, why would a catholic priest promote such an idea and furthermore why would the pope honor him afterward? If one were to look at today's birthing theory of the universe and then seriously study it alongside Genesis Chapter 1, one could conclude that it is the same. Of course one would have to be willing to understand the wording of the time Genesis Chapter 1 was written. For example: We today say lightening. One of that time may call it fire. Now if one were to read, let's say, Exodus where it describes the Lord leading the Israelites with fire from the sky by night, one might be inclined to see this as a delusion or impossibility. But with understanding one would recognize the fire spoken of as lightening, what with the cloud leading them by day and all. It is easy to dispute and to disbelieve the unknown, but it takes a lot of wisdom to see. Understood?
  • A comment on Talk: Julia Sweeney: Letting go of God

    Apr 24 2012: It seems to me that many people have a distorted view of what GOD is and thus deem GOD to be a delusion of sorts. People such as Richard Dawkins insite anger and bullying in those who perceive GOD to be an imaginary being. People such as Pope Benedict XVI perpetuate falsities about GOD and the bible and lead millions of believers astray while providing evidence to atheists that people who believe in GOD are somehow less intelligent than those who believe in GOD. I have more knowledge of the bible than anyone I have ever met or heard speak of the bible and it perplexes me that many "Christians" promote ideas, rituals, beliefs, and even quotations that are nowhere to be seen in the bible. I truly believe that if one would only read the book as one would read any other book, one would see that there is no difference between what the bible says and what science says. One would see that 99% of "christians" have no idea that what they say or believe is not in the bible. There is a major difference between what Religion says and what the bible says. My only dilemma is that no one wants to hear what I have to say. Everyone seems so bent on their own ideas of reality that even when the truth is shown to them, they do not see it. They seek to destroy me and what I believe, but don't realize that they are destroying themselves. I've literally had thousands of conversations where the people I spoke with were so eager to insult, disagree, disprove, and band together with those like them against me that they didn't realize that they were agreeing with me. In one instance, a man told me to read a book that would change my mind of what I had stated. After reading the book I realized that the man had not read the book himself for the book almost seemed to be written by me. So then, why all of this? Why am I pushing this comment to the end of characters remaining? What is my point? Well, it's very simple actually; LISTEN. Let those of you who have ears..... LISTEN
