In life there are said to be many truths so when a person speaks the truth exactly what are we hearing? For that matter, what, then, is a lie? I do not subscribe to eastern philosophy or any type of “Hippie” diatribes. I was alive during the sexual revolution of LSD and heroin and it was a terrible and blasphemous time. A time that ushered God out of normalcy. I actually fell for it but never dropped heroin or acid. All else was fair game and I am not proud of that behavior on my part.
However, as I was starting to understand how hypocritical that movement was and as I made the path in front of me straight again I did so with help from scripture. In other words, I picked up the bible again and began to ask myself serious questions about what in blue blazes I thought I was doing. The only answer I came up with was: ruining my life in the spiritual sense. Abasing one’s spirit is a sure sign of loss of faculties beyond what doctors tell you is psychological malfeasance. Your spirit (not “ghost”) is the structure of your morality and morality is kind of what this website is about but in a circular way so as not to affix guilt on anyone. Guilt is what the individual heart of a person tells them secretly so that only they know when they’re off course. The course is what the phrase, “moral compass,” is all about.
The first number of articles I will write here are letting you know the direction of this website. Never think that I am a highly moral or “special” person looking down on anyone. It is true that the bible did refocus my moral path and it is that which I mean to bring to you gently and in a non-preaching manner. Best you know that I am guilty of many sins including participating in taking lives during my service to this country.
That is the weight I carry and the reason for my attitude toward the world of man, and politics in particular. I am what some call, “conservative.” I am more apolitical than a member of one political party or another. I chose to be this way after reconciling what I did in Vietnam and why I was sent there in the first place. Those were hard lessons that set my path to this point. I hope that you get something from my prattle.
