Taking a look at the last week I have began to wonder what is going on in this country. When you listen to the news you would think you were living in another world. There's fighting on abortion, racism in the courts, the failure of Obama care, money being spent in asinine places in the government, and the Fed is pushing "everything's just fine" while buying worthless bonds. Building on the same premise to what brought us to where we are now. A trial that should have been left in the hands of the Jury, but was and is not. A man killed in Georgia that happen to be white and killed by 4 black youths for no reason and nothing.
This is my summation to all of this: We live in a world of titles and subcategories. There is black, white, hispanic, asian and others, there is rich and middle class and poor. There are Baptist, Church of God and a various amount of other ones. You know where I am going with this. We have become a world of groups and stereotypes. Maybe it is just me I see this all just complicates the situation. The more differences you draw between people the less likely you will ever close that gap of understanding. Religion has celebrated the comfort of togetherness, and then pushes it apart by groups. I can actually see in my everyday life that some religious groups will down right look down on you because you do not believe in their way, you somehow become a second class citizen. Religion was built on togetherness and love and now has been skewed by groups and beliefs that are not conducive to bringing people together.
Getting to the other subjects such as race, wealth and the other stereotypes. There is a reason why humans do this. That is for personal gain. You have a large amount people who prey on others for their own benefit.
As I get a year older today I remember what my Grandfather use to say to me as a child. Treat people the way you want to be treated. Respect their beliefs and opinions. But most of all love them for who they are.

A little hope left for the human race.
I was reading through my Facebook statuses and I ran across a dear friends comments about people undercutting each others comments about the differences between Democrats and Republicans and for the most part he was right. It does become somewhat tiring to hear every little nuance of one or the other. We have somehow lost focus on what it means to speak out. One reason is to inform others of what is going on around them with tempered statements, and I guess I am guilty of this one, "anger at stupidity of our Government". But I can definitely relate to this person processing all the negative with very little positive to be said. But I can say this for having access to such a vast knowledge base such as the internet, if you put in the time to research you will find things that will make your hair stand on end. Here lately there has not been a lot to talk about that is not positive.
As a Scientist I have a view of the world around me that is hard to explain. I have trouble with faith and the inner workings of faith. I was raised Baptist and had at one time what I thought was a very good grasp on my faith and human nature. But as I moved along in life I began to experience doubt that the religion of our Grandfathers was right. Because at some point I had lost faith in the people and overall interpretation of Biblical presidents. Now that's not to say I do not believe in God because I do. But not in the same way as most. My firm belief is that this subject is so much more complex than we can ever imagine. If you look at at the very nature of our existence and the complexity of our bodies and our minds you have to ask yourself how did something from nothing come to form the human body and mind and push it into existence, it would take something that is far beyond our comprehension. Also to create all of the wondrous life that abounds on our planet and the beauty of our Universe.
While I do have my doubts about all of this I have come across two people a Mother and Daughter Terri Maxwell and Brenda Bowersock-Rennels who have given me pause and hope for the race of humans. It is their firm dedication and faith in humanity and their chosen path that has given me this pause. It gives this old Physicist another variable to use to formulate his outcome. They have not stopped at basic knowledge they continue to educate themselves on their faith and practice what they preach, how refreshing is that. One of these days I hope to be able to find the peace and pure faith they both have. But as they have, I will keep searching for my answer that will satisfy my equation of life. But until then these two wonderful people give me hope for the roll of man and woman in todays society.

Police State and Injustice in America.
I cannot believe I am saying this but this Government has gone too far in it's monitoring of it's own citizens.If the founding Fathers could seen what has become of our country they would be ashamed of the people that stood by and watched it happen. To watch what has transpired of the last couple of weeks has sickened me. Now I will be the first to say that Mr Snowden should have taken a different path with his information. But I can still see that none of the Benghazi people have yet been heard from on the death of a U.S. Ambassador. And you will never hear from them at this point, they seem to think they have covered all the bases and they want you to just accept their truth. Now getting back to Snowden. Like I said I do not condone his actions but I understand them. He has shown this country how deep the Government has gone to pry into every American's life and history of each of us. And if you find this to be acceptable then you have fallen into their trap. They like the fact the the American people have become complacent and accommodating to them. They then can shove more of the agenda down our throats. More Bills passed in the night and never read.
I can see the difference in how people are treated different by their status with the Government. James Clapper lied to Congress and nothing happened. Eric Holder lied to Congress and nothing happened. The President has lied to the whole country and still nothing. Where is the News Media that should be working to expose these people. Oh that's right being wiretapped by the very people they are reporting on. Shit that means no one is watching them. And as I said earlier they then can press their agenda without push back. We have stood back and watched over the last couple of weeks and seen that the Government will go to great lengths to allow 11 million illegal aliens legal status in this country that in-turn will change the voting landscape in this country forever. And when you get right down to it will divide this country in ways you will not have seen coming.
The conclusion has come to me that most people have given up and their spirits have been broken, and that was this President's goal all along. Keep you just comfortable enough to not say anything and if you do you will disappear like so many have in the past. I for one will never coware to this kind of Tyrannical behavior. I will take lessons that I learned form our past to help ensure our future, I will speak out because I am not afraid. And I suggest you as Americans demand accountability for your Government before it is too late.
The next big thing that will slap you in the face is the coming collapse of the U.S. Dollar. And I assure you it will happen so you had better prepare for it. This is not a conspiracy theory it is the truth. The mathematics do not and will never add up. They can only push the numbers so far before it all falls through.
