Usually when I write an article, I sit down at the computor and just start writing about a subject which comes to mind. Then there are times when a particular subject has been bothering me for sometime and not always sure what it is that’s bothering me about it.
I really miss those wonderful teachers and mentors I had early on, when I began studying the Philosophy of Freedom, such as Dr. George Boardman, a newspaper columnist and professor at Rampart College who lived in the ghost town of Chloride, Arizona. Frequently I wrote to him about a particular subject, event, article, or opinion which was bothering me and asking him, what it was that bothered me. He would decipher, and always took time to respond.

I write on a variety of subjects, but usually refrain from writing about religion. Believing it is so personal and individual, I don’t usually discuss it. Not my religious beliefs, nor others’. This is an article about a church, The United Church of Christ.
A few days ago, listening to the Glenn Beck show, he started talking about Jeremiah Wright, the former pastor of President Obama, and his church he attended for twenty years. I thought I heard him say it was a United Church of Christ. That was news to me, I had never heard that.

COMMENT:
“I am new to blogging & you use language I can understand. 5 star article brilliant.”
It’s probably not according to proper journalistic protocol to begin an article with a comment, however because this gentleman conveys in one line why I write these articles, it was a very meaningful comment to me.
His comment was relative to the article Whitaker-Chambers, Alger Hiss a few days ago.

“All the world is wrong but me and thee, and sometimes I have my doubt about thee.”
I love so many of the great quotes, frequently wonderful words of wisdom, handed down through the centuries. Not always coming from the brainy and well-educated. Sometimes out of the mouths of babes, and from “the dull and ignorant.”
One of my very favorite documents is the Desiderata, number one and number two, which says, “Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant, they too have a story.”
