A People “Under God”!
The nation belongs “under God.” So when it is obscured by the fog And its glory is sullied and paled, Its righteous ones scorned and jailed, Ours is to call it back to its origin: A people “indivisible” and “under God”!Maintain the truth for the next generation;You have children inheriting your nation.What will it be […]

Serving the Feds and the Lord
I suppose I am one of a few Who have done time with the feds Both at an FCI place of “rest” And the USNA at Annapolis; Both housing clients with no rentAnd each having its own weird bent:Jail with a lot of noise was cursed;The Navy had folks competing to be first.But ’twas good […]

Tribute to Jonathan O’Toole (Movie Producer)
What does it mean to be a martyr, a witness, for Jesus? We might give consideration, in our times, to the one who saves the babies by blowing up abortuaries (and, sometimes, going to jail). Some time in the future, such will be regarded as martyrs. But there are others who have acted in a […]

A Meditation on Pacifism
Robert Lawrence Smith in his “A Quaker Book of Wisdom” notes that he fought in WW II but thinks, nevertheless, that pacifism is a good thing. Uh . . . What part? The idea of sitting by and letting Nazis murder Jews did not, thankfully, sit well with him. Hmm. Any other such atrocities worth […]
