Jabberjustice because all this talk about justice is just a whole lot of jabber. ... But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!"

Post-Racial What!!!????? America!!!
The idea that there is a so-called Post-Racial America does not exist. What exactly does that term mean and isn't that all relevant to the times at hand? I assure you that Race is alive and well in America. It will never die! It is the foundation on which America was built. Whatever will Racist do if we actually lived in a Post-Racial America. Moreover, the election of a black president is no indicator of the ablution of Racist and their Racism. In fact, racist crawled out of their closets and popped up from hell to attack the President and his family in every way their hearts desire. They continue to attack and as far as I am concerned, the attacks are all based on race. The idea that some whites believe that they are better than African-Americans, Africans and any other person of color is absurd. All of this nonsense is based on the fact that white people are white and black people are not. The older I get the more ridiculous the idea! In addition, Racist whites have historically and traditionally painted blacks as if they are outside of the grace of God.
Let's take Pat Robinson's comments about the Haitians in response to the tragic 2010 earthquake. He basically said that Haitians are outside of the grace of God because of some illedged pact made with the devil 200 years ago during the time when Haiti beat back Napoleon and his French army to win their freedom. This statement is based on race and only race. He looked at their black skin, demonized and dehumanized them and was quick with his mouth to contextualize those black people in some social location of "the cursed". This is what Racist have done for centuries concerning blacks. This comes from the The slave Owners Manual and it begs the question, What's the difference between them and Mr. Robinson who calls himself a minister of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. How does his comments glorify God? Does his comments uplift the church? Do they encourage the people of Haiti to survive. What I will say to Mr. Robinson is this: sometimes the greatest gift we can give humanity is our silence.
Rush L. is just another hateful, vicious racist who needs to go take a pill.

The Rich and The Poor
The Rich gets Richer and the Poor gets Poorer!
Popular words spoken for centuries.
These words were ripped from the pages of the Bible and the mouth of Jesus, himself.
I have struggled with the meaning of them for years, thinking that some people are born to be poor and while others are born to be rich, but in light of the economic crisis in America and consequently around the world, I have a new perspective regarding the jarring statement.
The Rich get Richer and the Poor get Poorer because of the GREEDY! They get GREEDIER!
The Poor you will always have with you. Also words from the mouth of Jesus. As a student of theology, I have had to grapple with the abstractness of these words, but now I understand them in a more concrete way. I understand them to mean: As long as you have the GREEDY with you, you will also have the POOR with you.
Greed is the impetus for Poverty!
Moreover, the poor gets poor because generally they stay in their place (many systems are set up to keep them there)-that vicious circle of poverty and death and loss and grief. The circle breeds nothing but poverty and more poverty and after a while, the little you have will be taken away from you, which equals a sort of metaphorical death, if not the actual thing.
The rich get richer because they generally stay in their place-that cycle of life and opportunity. This circle breeds riches. Therefore, they, the rich get richer and richer and richer. Sadly, this is sometimes related to or becomes GREED!
