Martin Luther King Jr.

"Like a boil that can never be cured so long as it is covered up but must be opened with all its ugliness to the natural medicines of air and light, injustice must be exposed, with all the tension its exposure creates, to the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion before it can be cured."—Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Letter from a Birmingham Jail

why must they kill our prophets while we stand aside and look they say that it's just a part of it we gotta fulfill de book

Hey Norm...you should try and get some of the Gore speech posted. I don't know if you were planning to or not, but it was a pretty good speech.

The orthodox attempt to explain the divinity of Jesus in terms of an inherent metaphysical substance within him seems to me quite inadequate. To say that the Christ, whose example of living we are bid to follow, is divine in an ontological sense is actually harmful and detrimental. To invest this Christ with such supernatural qualities makes the rejoinder: "Oh, well, he had a better chance for that kind of life than we can possible have." In other words, one could easily use this as a means to hide behind his failures. So that the orthodox view of the divinity of Christ is in my mind quite readily denied.

--Martin Luther King, Jr. ("The Humanity and Divinity of Jesus," 1950)

Re not good. Nimmo's writing can be found under his name in the archives in the right hand column

well, at least our president is living up to (and beyond) the legacy which king left for us all. sigh

its more than fun and games , . . . sometimes. Bring on the vid of MLK.
