You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor – does not apply to Anti-Gay Christian Group?

It is never a surprise that extreme groups often lie to raise funds and convince prospective “supporters” to support their “true” cause but in today’s cyber-world, I wonder why they think they will get away with it for long. I guess telling the truth and finding out the facts – if they disagree with what you want to believe – is painiful enough to make lying OK?

Two serious illnesses are making waves in Massachusetts. One is common and one isn’t.

Environment of hate in Arizona = two 9-year old girls shot and killed

We really need to learn how to live together and live up to the challenges to “love one another, as I have loved you.” “Love is the strongest force the world possesses, and yet it is the humblest imaginable.” “Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love.”

LatinaLista.net — The Tucson region has the dubious distinction of being a place where two nine-year-old girls were horrendously murdered — Christina Taylor Greene and Brisenia Flores.

Brisenia was also 9-years-old, but unlike Christina, Brisenia was in a place where she deserved to feel safe and protected — her home.

Currently, the woman blamed for these senseless, hateful murders is on trial in Tucson.

When 450 people who attend a wedding in the Dominican Republic – get cholera that came from Haiti – and then are in Venezuela, Spain, Canada, USA and Mexico within 24 hours – get the picture? Help Haiti – because we should and to protect ourselves as well.

Spreading cholera, maybe polio: Now will we care about Haiti?

The confirmed cholera and possible polio cases underline, one more time, that infectious diseases do not respect borders — as China found out during SARS and Nigeria when it refused polio vaccination.
