Colin Kaepernick

I don't care how you feel about what  he is doing

This country was founded on freedom

Freedom of speech

Freedom to protest when one feels wronged

To be heard

To have that voice

Let him have a voice

He is deserving of that

Based on principles you supposedly hold dear

Then let them be demonstrated here

Constitutional rules aren't just to be upheld when we feel like it

With the people we deem fitting

And as convenient for us

Just as the police are here to serve and protect ALL people in this country

Regardless of their personal beliefs

To uphold the law above all else
And apply it equally

Isn't that what we want?

Let's us demonstrate tolerance

If we are ever to achieve any kind of civilized society

Unspoken - Start a Fire

Great song

Nice video

Yes it's about God

And mostly about you

And me

And everyone

About having God's glory

Within us

I'm guessing they are referring to Christ in the song.  

But Christ is truly only one way to salvation 

and no one can make me believe otherwise.

****

I realize that I like a lot of gospel music; however I have to refute claims that God is a man and that Christ is the only way; the king of all kings, and died on the cross for me. If anything he died because of "me"; because of people's idiocy and fears.

That's all a bit much for me. That kind of misogyny doesn't resonate with my heart. Sorry. I just don't believe it. My God doesn't play favorites.
