Hatred

Is hatred now the strongest human motivation? If so where goes civilization, what is there to build on? Killing civilians, blasting an aircraft from the skies, what lunatics can believe any God condones such inhuman behavior?
And in such instances, all we ever get from religious leaders is: silence.
Christianity proclaims that God is 'Almighty and everlasting,' but why does He never speak to any of them?
Maybe the human race upset Him. If anyone brutally murdered our only child, would we accept a cover up that made our child's death a cause for celebration and holy reverence?
Perhaps we should ignore the fairy tale that is Easter,  and ask for His forgiveness, offer our repentance, then pray for our resurrection as human beings. Then the world might stand a chance of enjoying this God given heavenly planet, ending in contentment and a life in the hereafter, a world born of our earthly dreams.
Self ordained as Archpip Plumtree, I am not a holy man, but I do like to make sense of any belief, .and the God I pray for is a whole lot cleverer and vocal than the one presented by the church..
Open up your minds, take the peel off your plums, look into the sweetness of life, keep your pip firm and your kernel pure.

Parenting

 Babies have empty tummies and empty heads. It is the responsibility of parents and society to nourish both. Baby will scream for food, thus an empty tummy is immediately obvious, but baby's mind gives no such warning of emptiness. All parents, writers, children's t/v, and advertising should give a lot more thought to what is presented to a child's brain, and build in some good human qualities. If a baby eats bad food it will be sick, if fed bad thoughts, it will grow up with a sick mind, very difficult if not impossible to cure.
Not to brainwash into some robot,but to continually freshen up with all the glories of human existence, laughter, friendship, honesty, trust, music, dance, and the richness of living on planet earth..
Let us spread the blossoms and juices of life, and begin the day baby is born.
