Philosophy of Living Faith Radio

  • A positive, progressive Christian alternative
  • Reflecting the joy and justice message of Jesus
  • Aimed toward spiritual seekers and strugglers
  • For the purpose of amplifying the voice of Progressive Christianity.

Living Faith is a positive, progressive, Christian alternative that lifts up themes of nonviolence, compassion, co-operation, and community. Living Faith will educate the public in the liberal family values of Jesus, his commitment of economic justice for the poor, care of creation, compassion for the excluded, and resistance to empire. Living Faith will articulate a positive expression of a Wisdom Culture that promotes lifestyles of balance and reconciliation. Living Faith will invite others into a conversation about the values and vision of Jesus.

CALL TO ACTION ON 9/11; Please go to the above URL for the entire speech; or watch the video. BMT
"First they came for the terrorists but I wasn't a terrorist so I stayed silent and went about my business. Then they came for those suspected of terrorism, but I certainly wasn't a suspect so I stayed silent and went about my business. Then they came for those who defended those who were suspected of terrorism, but I wasn't defending such people so I stayed silent and went about my business. Then, one day, they came and began to "suspect" me, so I stayed very, very silent and went about my business.
And that is how I lost my soul."

You can feel it in the air: many of us are living in the fear that we are one "bad event" away from this administration seizing power over the people in such a way that we will find ourselves swept up in a nightmare of tyranny such as we've never seen before.

Others before us have also lived in such times. Others before us have also witnessed the tyranny of empire, the fear it unleashes, and the trance it imposes on its population. There is a story in the Gospel of Mark (this Sunday I'll be preaching about it) that has Jesus encountering a man in a graveyard, chained to the tombs and possessed by a powerful demon that has caused the man to become violent, insane, and out of control. The name of the demon is Legion, a military term that symbolizes the occupying army of Rome. In the story Jesus breaks through the silence, the denial, the trance and compels the demon to acknowledge its name. Once named, Jesus "exorcizes the demon", that is, he performs a direct public action that breaks through the denial and the trance while restoring the man to sanity and community.

We are gathered tonight because our nation has fallen into a trance: we've become possessed by a spirit that is causing us great harm. It is a spirit that causes great violence. It is a spirit that destroys community. It turns us against each other. It causes us to distrust each other. And it certainly causes us to question our sanity, our understanding of events and of basic human qualities like honesty, forthrightness, integrity, co-operation. This trance has caused us to lose our voice, we have become silent in the face of great evils. We have learned how to live in denial of the obvious. Indeed, we now know the answer to that old question, "how could good German citizens allow the Nazi Party to rise to power?" We need somehow to awaken from this trance, and find our voice. We need to break through the denial and compel the demon that possesses us to state forth its name, and having done that, then through direct public actions we can restore our citizenry to sanity and community. We need to awaken and reclaim our roots as a democracy.

That's the assumption of this call to meeting. We face a multitude, a whole legion of evils that are silencing us, chaining us to fears and denial, possessing us with a spirit contrary to our nature. You have probably come here because you have seen this possession and have become restless and frustrated in "casting it out" of the body politic. Some of you are here because you think electing Democrats in 2008 will bring a new birth of hope. Some of you are here because you think our governing system has fallen into disrepair and needs a few tweaks and adjustments. Some of you want to fix our broken elections, or stop the impending war in Iran, Syria and Lebanon. Some of you want to get to the bottom of the 9/11 contradictions, and some of you are worried sick about the house of cards that is our economy. Many of you are greatly concerned about the growing power of the executive and the military. Many of you worry about the corruption of our political process through Corporate money. The urgency of multiple crisis (legion) is certainly before our nation this evening. But tonight the focus is really on one part of the crisis: breaking the trance, breaking through the denial and finding our voice.

DAVID HONISH WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN! Don't believe for a SECOND that his brother did it. They are going to be SORRY they messed with a Care2 member!

EVERYBODY SHOULD SAVE ANY RELEVANT COMMUNICATION THEY HAD FROM DAVID HONISH, TO BE USED AS EVIDENCE IN COURT. David told Care2 members he was being threatened! AND NOT BY HIS BROTHER. This is EVIDENCE that could be IMPORTANT!!!!!!! SAVE ANYTHING! 
Teresa sent me a link of a harassment David wrote about in May, 2006. THAT IS THE TYPE OF THING THAT NEEDS TO BE SAVED! Put it somewhere WHERE THEY CAN'T MAKE IT "DISAPPEAR". 

PEOPLE HAVE FOUND, THAT IMPORTANT STUFF ON THE INTERNET, HAS A WAY OF "DISAPPEARING". SO, PLEASE SAVE THINGS LIKE THIS ON A DISC AND PUT IN A SECURE PLACE! DO IT NOW!!!
IF IT IS IN SEVERAL PLACES, IF SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE IT, IT WILL BE EASIER TO GET PAST THE BASTARDS THAT KILLED DAVID! EVEN IF THEY RAID OUR HOMES!
MAKE NO MISTAKE AT ALL, THIS WAS A POLITICAL ASSASSINATION, BY THE POWERS THAT FEEL THREATENED BY THE GROWING VETERANS' MOVEMENT, OF WHICH DAVID WAS SUCH A PROMINENT AND WONDERFUL PART.

ALSO, SAVE THE EARLY NEWS ACCOUNTS!!! AS HAS BEEN PROVED WITH 9/11 INFORMATION, EARLY NEWS ACCOUNTS ARE OFTEN CHANGED TO REFLECT WHAT THOSE IN CHARGE WANT THEM TO SAY!!!
I THINK THAT THE NEWS OF THE DISCOVERY OF DAVID'S BODY IN THE TRUCK, FOR EXAMPLE, WILL BE CHANGED TO SAY "THERE WERE SIGNS OF A STRUGGLE". IN THE EARLY NEWS ACCOUNTS THAT I AND OTHERS SENT AROUND CARE2, THERE WAS NO MENTION OF "SIGNS OF A STRUGGLE"!!!
JUST OF THE SINGLE SHOT-TO-THE-HEAD, EXECUTION-STYLE, MAFIA-STYLE.
If the two brothers had struggled, it would not look like that!!!
THEY ARE GOING TO GET A GUN WITH BOTH SETS OF FINGERPRINTS ON IT, AND CALL THAT THE "MURDER WEAPON". BOTH BROTHERS WERE CLOSE AND BOTH WERE GUN NUTS -- WELL, CALL IT BY A MORE RESPECTABLE TERM -- AND SO IT WOULD BE THE EASIEST THING IN THE WORLD, TO FIND SOME GUN THAT HAD BOTH BROTHERS' FINGERPRINTS ON IT!!!
IF MARK, DAVID'S BROTHER, "COMMITS SUICIDE" IN JAIL, OR MEETS WITH SOME "ACCIDENT"........ HE WILL BE FRAMED FOR THE MURDER, AND THERE WILL BE NO FURTHER INVESTIGATION!
THEY ARE GOING TO SAY: THERE WAS A STRUGGLE FOR THE GUN {THE ONE WITH BOTH SETS OF FINGERPRINTS ON IT!}, IT WENT OFF, SHOT DAVID NEATLY IN {BACK OF?} THE HEAD, AND MARK PANICKED AND FLED. THEN THEY PICKED UP MARK.
MAYBE THEY CAN EVEN FORCE A CONFESSION OUT OF HIM! BY GIVING HIM A PLEA-BARGAIN AND THREATS OF THE DEATH PENALTY!

IF YOU HAVE ANY PRIVATE COMMUNICATION FROM DAVID, PLEASE SAVE IT!
IF YOU HAVE HAD TELEPHONE MESSAGES FROM DAVID, PLEASE SAVE IF POSSIBLE, OR WRITE DOWN FROM MEMORY AS EXACTLY AS YOU CAN, AND PUT IT IN A SAFE PLACE!
I AM NO TECHIE; BUT I AM GIVEN TO UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN TRASHED MESSAGES, CAN OFTEN BE RETRIEVED FROM A COMPUTER. PLEASE SOMEONE ADVISE HOW TO DO THIS.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO PEOPLE DAVID MAY HAVE COMMUNICATED WITH, WHO ARE NOT ON MY FRIENDS LIST.
PLEASE POST IN GROUPS DAVID WAS IN.

SOMEONE -- NOT ME! -- SHOULD FIND MARK'S LAWYER AND INFORM HIM THAT CARE2 MEMBERS ARE WILLING TO HELP. AND ARE IN POSSESSION OF EVIDENCE! MAYBE THIS SHOULD BE RELEASED TO THE PRESS! SOMEONE WHO IS VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE LAW, MORE THAN MYSELF, SHOULD HANDLE THIS. BE THE LIASON. OF COURSE, MARK'S LAWYER MAY BE A CORRUPT PART OF THE SYSTEM! SOMEONE KNOWLEDGEABLE SHOULD HANDLE THIS. MAYBE SEE HOW THE TRIAL GOES, AND SPRING THIS IF IT SEEMS TO BE RAILROADING MARK..........DEPENDS ALSO ON HOW MUCH AND WHAT WE COLLECTIVELY HAVE AS EVIDENCE.
BUT, WHAT WE NEED TO DO NOW, IS COLLECT THE EVIDENCE WE HAVE ON OUR NM AND GROUPS!!!!!!! AND PHONE CALLS, AND WHATEVER. AND LINKS. SAVED AND STASHED. DON'T LET IT SLIP INTO OBLIVION!!!

COULD YOU ASK CARE2 TO KEEP DAVID'S PROFILE AS STILL A MEMBER? AS A MEMORIAL TO ONE OF CARE2'S BEST CITIZENS? DO OTHER PEOPLE LIKE THIS IDEA?
I AM ALSO THINKING OF STARTING A GROUP IN DAVID'S HONOR. MORE LATER.

AFTER 9/11, THERE WERE LOTS OF PEOPLE WHO SAW SOMETHING FISHY IN WHAT WE WERE TOLD. AFTER THE KENNEDY ASSASSINATION, AND THE OTHER ASSASSINATIONS OF THAT ERA, BOBBY KENNEDY, MALCOLM X, ETC., THERE WERE PEOPLE RIGHT AWAY WHO THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE STORY.
BUT, WE DIDN'T HAVE THE INTERNET DEVELOPED LIKE TODAY: SO EVERYONE KEPT THEIR IDEAS TO THEMSELVES AND LACK OF PUBLIC COMMUNICATION ALLOWED THE LIES TO PREVAIL!
WELL, NOT ANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BMUTINY THEM I DEFY

Well, the following article sure showed that David was outspoken, not intimidated, and could make enemies!
Since the events at the mall happened over a year ago, May 30, 2006, I don't think it was the mall cop that shot David.
I don't think it was his brother, either!
David was shot "execution-style", with one shot to the head. In his truck, with the motor still running. On the side of the highway.
He could have been pulled over, by someone DRESSED in a cop's uniform, I am thinking. It could have been a Black Op. One of Bush's special people, DISGUISED as a traffic cop.
If he and his brother were "fighting", he wouldn't have been hit once in the head, neatly! David and his brother knew all about handling guns! In that part of Texas, all adult males do! They weren't careless teenagers!
Also, David had written an email to a Peace Activist, regarding him and his brother opening a shooting range! just before he was shot!
David told a person on Care2, that he was afraid for his life! and that the police were harassing him! Now, he wasn't talking about his brother when he said he had had threats on his life!
If David's brother dies in jail, by "suicide" or whatever, we will KNOW FOR SURE that David's brother Mark, did NOT shoot David!
They are trying to cover up that David was shot BECAUSE HE WAS A VETERAN SPEAKING UP; and the Bushies are MORE AFRAID OF VETERANS THAN OF ANYBODY ELSE. Because RESISTANCE IN THE MILITARY, WILL MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE IRAQ ILLEGAL OCCUPATION TO CONTINUE!
And because of the veterans, that Resistance is GROWING!
