[Lyle K'ang]

I believe in God Almighty, Creator of Heaven and Earth...so what?!

I also believe in Master Buddha who believes in Jesus Christ and said so..so what?!

I believe in the Koran, the Bible, The new Testament, the Old Testament and find fault in all of it, except the Koran...so what?!

I believe in Mohammed, Jesus the Christ, God the Father, Wakantanka, Great Spirit, Magical Being and Healer, & Elohim, so what?!...

I believe in prophets; whether they are brown, black, red, yellow or white. So what?!

I'm going to the greatest place that I can imagine after I die...because I am kind, generous, forgiving, and bright...so what?!

I really am trying to live the best, ethical, holy life that I can now, I pray in my own way for people but sometimes my human-side gets in my way, but hey!!! Aren't we all human? So What?!

So what?! So what, are we fighting for!? Why aren't we all trying to outlaw war and really exercise the powers of Peace? so what?!

Yes, I do believe in the military, I'm a veteran of the Vietnam era. So what?!

We still can focus with an eye for peace and learn more how to be more spiritual in practice and doing....learn how to create MIRACLES, THAT'S THE BEST WAY! Let's grow and learn to LOVE again. so what?!

What aren't we more gentle as a people? Why?!! Because most of us on this planet follow the herd mentality, are ignorant or arrogant because its easy and don't give a damn about you or I. So what?! 

Because I do give a damn, have seen the other side, know where my butt is and respect the Spirit!!!

Now-you all have a HAPPY NEW YEAR and have a Merry Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanza. When it comes up again in 2005, you be real proud of who you are, what your parents taught you, honor you parents and friends throughout the year...you hear?! So what?! 

I don't care (though I can emphathize) if you came here chained-up, or were persecuted for your religion, or had your self-esteem under attack because the 'whities' said so. I don't care if niggers, hunkies, spicks or wet-backs got your goat. So What?! 

We have to learn how to be kind, gentle, by being a man or woman-I'm preaching-somebody's got to. So WHat?!.

What matters is that you belong and that's what's up.

I love you-that's why!!

....Paul Harvey says:  

I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not going to sue somebody for
singing a Ho-Ho-Ho song in December. I don't agree with Darwin, but I
didn't go out and hire a lawyer when my high school teacher taught his
theory of evolution.

Life, liberty or your pursuit of happiness will not be
endangered because someone says a 30-second
prayer before a football game.

So what's the big deal? It's not like somebody is up there reading the
entire book of Acts. They're just talking to a God they believe in and
asking him to grant safety to the players on the field and the fans
going home from the game. "But it's a Christian
prayer," some will argue. Yes, and this is the United
States of America, a country founded on Christian principles. According
to our very own phone book,
Christian churches out number all others better than
200-to-1. 

So what would you expect-somebody chanting Hare
Krishna? If I went to a football game in Jerusalem, I
would expect to hear a Jewish prayer. If I went to a
soccer game in Baghdad, I would expect to hear a
Muslim prayer. If I went to a ping pong match in
China, I would expect to hear someone pray to Buddha. And I wouldn't be
offended. It wouldn't
bother me one bit. When in Rome.....

"But what about the atheists?" is another argument.
What about them? Nobody is asking them to be
baptized.. We're not going to pass the collection plate. Just humor us
for 30 seconds.. If that's asking
too much, bring a Walkman or a pair of ear plugs.
Go to the bathroom. Visit the concession stand.
Call your lawyer! Unfortunately, one or two will
make that call. One or two will tell thousands what
they can and cannot do. I don't think a short prayer
at a football game is going to shake the world's
foundations.

Christians are just sick and tired of turning the other cheek while our
courts strip us of all our rights. Our parents and grandparents taught
us to pray before eating, to pray before we ! go to sleep.

Our Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. Now a handful of people and
their lawyers are telling us to cease praying. God, help us. And if that
last sentence offends you, well..........just sue me.

The silent majority has been silent too long.. it's time we let that one
or two who scream loud
enough to be heard, that the vast majority don't care
what they want.. it is time the majority rules! It's
time we tell them, you don't have to pray.. you don't
have to say the pledge of allegiance, you don't have
to believe in God or attend services that honor Him.
That is your right, and we will honor your right... but
by golly, you are no longer going to take our rights
away ... we are fighting back... and we WILL WIN!

God bless us one and all, especially those who
denounce Him... God bless America, despite all her
faults, she is still the greatest nation of all. God
bless our service men who are fighting to protect
our right to pray and worship God. . . .

May 2005 be the year the silent majority is heard
and we put God back as the foundation of our
families and institutions.

Keep looking up...... In God WE Trust.

If you agree with this, please pass it on.
If not, delete.
