 There are those who hide behind something and expound something else.

Pastors/priests do so re collectivism.  Nothing's more execrable.

Fiction well illustrates this.

Stargate SG1had a storyline near the end of the run featuring the Ori.  They were rebel/fallen ascended masters who preferred to control instead of inspiring.

All had to submit or be destroyed.

Their Priors spread the word and warned to join or die.  They constantly quoted their scriptures.

The Ori quote their scriptures to cover their ill intent.

We quote Scripture to shed Light.  

In the 'real world' some exploit Scripture, misquote or isolate to cover.

We shine and may occasionally paraphrase, noting such and encouraging accurate research.  

But the emphasis is always to explain and augment aka shed Light.  

Faith uncovers religion.

Shed your chains.

A Time

 When his academic work and opinions were sought by profs and students alike.  Among those writing papers, theses etal; quotes, footnotes etc there was high regard.

A time comes full circle when such rises again.  

Serve.

What's Right

 I try to avoid names/terms that trip bots etc.  Probably just did lol.

Anyway, I attempt to let you all figure it out.

I've mentioned how my Dad taught me content of character.  He did the right thing, though the price could be high.  The alternative was untenable.

It sometimes cost Dad, but he stuck to his principles.  We used to say stuck to his guns.  That'll trip those lil critters -s-.

There is another, among a few, who reminds me of Dad's resolve.  That is #45.

He is resolute and inspite of vicious evil, he perseveres.

He and Dad are cut from the same cloth.  And they teach us a lesson.

Do what's right.

Cooking

 Mom taught me to cook

As a kid, I was by her side and witnessed her home cooking.  

Of course, I've refined and added much to this.  It keeps me and the family alive.

Along with all my brother, GreatGrandmother and brother from another mother and my Dad gave me, this is not to be sneezed at -s-.

Physical sustenance keeps the body going.  It allows us to experience mentally and spiritually.

One side keeps the other side going.

And if we learn to prepare food, we become more independent.  

Even better.  Let's learn to grow it.
