Your article dated 12/24/06, Religions Should Do More To Help The Poor, in the Herald and News in Klamath Falls, Oregon was sighted. Word for word, it stated "[I]n the United States, the richest 10% of the country now owns almost 70% of the assets. Here's our question: Where are the voices of moral outrage?... [D]id they address the fact that many full time working families can't afford homes or health care?"
As the author of Equestrian Travel Mall and Legal Services at http://kinispolarbear.bravehost.com and the quest for justice under my Human Rights In America Petition at http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/374098261, I am here to tell you, the voices of moral outrage are no longer alive.
You indicated that last year, 25 million people visted food banks. More than half of America's adults will spend a year in poverty at some point in their lives. Meanwhile, the mega-rich jet off on their private planes to one of their multiple homes where they might spend more in a day than most families make in a year. But religious leaders remain largely silent on the subject. ...
It is even more than that. When American captives are held by enemy lines, captives are most often fed the hopelessness words that "No one cares", "No one knows where you are", "Everyone thinks that you are dead", "You have been abandoned" "Giveup and tell us the information we want to know"...and other emotional and physical battering for enemy agenda.
These are the same kind of words and choices that I hear and suffer today from the average citizen, terrorist-supporting federal judges, and Jews. Words and actions in the form of discouragement, lies, fraudulent representation, extortion, and sexual harassment amoung the use of weapons of mass oppression.
"Religious leaders should be beating the message home to the community that we have obligations to each other beyond collections of cans for soup kitchens or toys for tots drives at Christmas...." The government has changed its terminology to describe the some 35 million hungry people in this country as those with 'very low food security.' That way hunger doesn't sound quite so bad, even if it feels the same."
The excuses for the call of moral outrage and the unwillingness to exercise judgment and make commonsense choices instead of "directing" the decent to psychiatric care or mental institutionalization reflect our modern sickness. If the courts had any sense, they would back up their own laws in making sound and defensible choices instead of allowing favoritism among the mighty, the powerful, and the Jews.
The Federal, state, and religious leaders are silent because their "scandals" are crying out to be weaken more. Quite obviously, using the remnants of their clout to go after the weak is intended to focus on the vulnerable rather than the mighty and the powerful so their crimes will go unnoticed nor be revealed. They are not only asking to be ignored but they are begging to have their synagogues and churches torched. Will they be happy then?
Those with the most have the greatest responsibility of all. Their religious leaders should be hounding those who should take appropriate action in whatever case, and all of us, to fulfill our duty to make this a better society for all in every season when we give and especially when we get. -Kini-
