Public Education, what are they teaching our kids?

What are our children really being taught by Public Education? Is it really possible that lesson plans used 30 years ago are appropriate and useful today?

Are we planting seeds of cruelty? As we evolve, why aren't the lessons evolving? Art, music, literature, film, all evolve but education is lagging way behind.

This country was built by immigrants. People want to come here and make a better life. That is a compliment, not a detriment. What we need to figure out is how to handle the documentation.

Did you ever wonder about trees? They sleep, but do they dream? If they dream what do they dream of?

People have used propaganda since the beginning of time. Win over the hearts and minds of the people and you will win the war. Any other victory is an empty victory and can never be sustained.

Propaganda requires all kinds of people to be willing to be involved in the game. Everyone puts their little spin on the story. Propaganda or opinion?

Merry Christmas vs. Happy Holidays, does is matter? There is no shortage of Christmas decoration in this country.

Americans last year spent 8 Billion dollars on decorations, yet the faith based organization ADF is worried that Christmas is being discriminated against and people's first amendment rigthts are being squashed. Surely at this time of giving, there are better things to spend time and money on.

After yesterday's podcast I started to look into the ADF and I found out some really interesting things.

The ADF is a huge sponsor of Rush Limbaugh and spends millions to make sure that Liberal viewpoints like that of Ed Schultz are not heard by our troops. Why, and how can the DOD allow this to go on with our tax dollars? Where is the separation of church and state?

IMAGINE...So important a message that 150 Nations contributed to the Garden of Peace that surrounds the beautiful mosaic inscribed with one single word IMAGINE embodying the principle of world peace.

On the 25th Anniversary of the loss of John Lennon, we remember and reflect.

"Imagine all the people living life in Peace... I hope someday you will join us and the world will live as one."

We grow more corn than anyone in the world. Ethanol Fuel made from corn is a stable reliable proven technology for the production of fuel that can run vehicles that are currently running on our roads.

We have the technology, the land, the scientific and engineering know how to make this a reality. It will be good for the environment, create jobs and it will stop our reliance on foreign oil. Forty Percent of the vehicles in Brazil run on ethanol, so what are we waiting for?

The Religious Freedom Peace Tax Fund has been proposed to allow for those who are conscientiously opposed to participation in war to allow for proper social contribution without supporting the war machine.

Our military out spends every other country by more than three hundred seventy billion dollars! If we were to apply one third of the military budget to developing energy independence imagine how quickly we can have alternatives that would no longer require us to be in someone else's backyard and someone else's business.

The notorious Stanley Tookie Williams was executed by lethal injection this week. We condemn the public hangings in Riyadh but are we any better.

Can taking a life in anger and vengeance alleviate the pain, loss, suffering and anguish of losing a loved one. Is killing a relief of bereavement or does it create more horror. Thou shalt not kill, so many laws are built on the tenants of faith, but how does it work that the punishment for killing is killing? It hasn't worked in over 2000 years so why would it start working now? Is there a better way?
