1. and every hillside will be covered with daisies and there will be no war
no violence against children, no hunger and certainly no hand grenades and no nasty mosquito bites in annoyingly private places either!

4. Why Can't We Just Get Along?
Edited on Sun Jun-05-05 07:12 PM by DistressedAmerican
I'm an atheist and have NEVER tried to convert anyone. Many have tried to convert me.

As long as religions stress the supremacy of their beliefs over those of others and proselytizing, we will not get along.

History certainly argues that folks that have religious beliefs are frequently willing to kill to enforce them on others.

Oddly, I can't find a single Atheist crusade being fought...

7. I am a spiritual human being who appreciates you!!!!
I have no compulsion to shove my spirituality down your throat.

Frankly, my personal spirituality allows me to acknowledge you and your contributions.

I acknowledge that your personal strength allows you to be an exceptional advocate.

We are a member of only one struggling race,...the human race.

9. What happens in your head--- STAYS in your head.
If everyone could just manage that simple premise, we'd be fine.

10. There was a bumper sticker I saw during the Vietnam era that I
have never forgotten! It said...

"When the power of love exceeds the love of power, then and only then, will there be peace!"

It made sense then and it still does! Again our kids are dying in still another, elective, "Rich Man's War"! We need to stop the madness AGAIN!

Think or the good things we could have done with 300 billion dollars!

12. The power of love toward one another,....
My life experiences have taught me to love the loving, fight those who exploit the very word, "love".

13. Re: "exploit the very word, "love".
The neocons exploit the word and the meaning of the word! They twist and distort everything they touch! They even fool themselves!
