Love Thy Neighbor - No Exceptions!!!!!!

My Higher Power has a wicked sense of humor. I trying hard to "Play Nice" in light of current political happening.

My 12 Step training teaches "Principles before personalities!"
My Quakerism is all about "Hold Folks in the Light."

I replaced Mozart's the car's bumper stickers. "Love Thy Neighbor - No Exceptions" courtesy of FCNL Friends Committee on National Legislation AND LOVE People - Cook them tasty food" courtesy of Penzeys Spices.

I drove to Lewisburg for the First Day aka Sunday Meeting for the Greenbrier Religious Society of Friends. Ruth is one of the most spiritually elevated women in the universe. She was handing out pins that say ITMFA. These pins benefit the ACLU. It stands for something like "IMPEACH the Mummy FiretrUCKING AZZ****!#%@!!" .

Maybe my Higher Power is telling me to give it up. Sometimes the Goddess within just HAS to throw a tizzy fit.


extremism cuts across religious and ethnic lines.
“People of any mind-set who take their cause to the extreme are dangerous. There are Christians who take their causes to the extreme, too. They hijack their religion and reflect so poorly on their beliefs, their countries, their people.”

Very true!
You named your car, "Mozart"?


Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

    Quoting  :

It took me by surprise when Ruth pulled out the buttons - I asked her what it meant and she told me. She is a retired school teacher in her 90's and it seemed totally out of character for her. I got a chuckle out of it. My response, "Shouldn't we just be holding #45 in the light." The Bible says "Pray for your leader." It doesn't say "Pray only for the leaders that you like and call the ones that you don't like Mother FiretrUCKers Azzzzzzhats.

I am sure that a few years ago, there were 90 year old church ladies handing out buttons that said ITMFA in honor of Obama.

Oh give us a break .........We remember what you used to say about Obama and what you supported from others.......Calling for the impeachment of your President that you believe is a grave danger to your country and the World is not "hate" speech anymore than your speech defending him is.......Get off your high horse.....you look ridiculous up there.

PS.......I bet there were Germans in 1937 that were rallying against him and his apologists calling it hate speech........Actually, I know there was, because my father was one of those who were voicing their protestations and working to unseat the Fuhrer.........and those that swept the warnings away.......saying they wanted change, wanted Germany to be Great again.
