(IN)Fidel Castro has Died

Main Stream Media types are in mourning while Cuban exiles are celebrating.

For Colon Kaepernick and anyone thinking ‘romantically’ about the dashing revolutionary, turned oppressive dictator, please read the words of a man who actually lived under the rule of Fidel Castro.

“Cuba for more than five decades under the Castros has stifled practically any and all dissent. According to Human Rights Watch, “Cuban citizens have been systematically deprived of their fundamental rights to free expression, privacy, association, assembly, movement, and due process of law. Tactics for enforcing political conformity have included police warnings, surveillance, short-term detentions, house arrests, travel restrictions, criminal prosecutions, and politically motivated dismissals from employment.”
~Armando Seguero, Cuban exile~

Long before ISIS began filming their atrocious acts Castro had filmed his.  He was one of the worst of the worst and yet the left seemed to admire that extremely evil person.  Remember that when you hear the lefties lionize him.

Fruit Discrimination

We need to squash this right away. Our language is to peppered with this, so lettuce become kinder to each other, turnip around, otherwise we might beet each other when it would be butter to live in peas.  I love it when my spouse says to me: “Orange you glad you’re the apple of my eye?”

Knowing that a tomato is a fruit is intelligence; knowing not to put it into a fruit salad is wisdom.

Faith of Reason

It is idle to talk always of the alternative of reason or faith.

Reason is itself a matter of faith.  It is an act of faith to assert that out thoughts have any relation to reality at all.  If you are merely a skeptic, you must sooner or later ask yourself the question, “Why should anything go right; even observation and deduction?”  Why should not good logic be as misleading as bad logic?  – G. K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

Reason and faith may, at times, produce conflict between the two but ultimately the work hand in hand.  Shallow reasoning may fail to resolve the conflict but that is not the fault of reason or faith.

Reason without faith fails miserably and faith in faith without reason not only crumbles at the most inconvenient of timing but often hurts others in the process.  The God who gave us the ability to exercise both calls upon each one of us, individually and then corporately, to humble ourselves and not only cease to do that which He calls evil but learn to do well.

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Holy Bible Isaiah 1:18

Losing One’s Mind

They tell you that you’ll lose your mind when you get older.  What they don’t tell you is that you won’t miss it very much.

I remember someone who was having a few memory issues and we were a bit concerned about her.  Then one day she told us that as she was getting older she, herself, had noticed that she was having a bit of difficulty remembering things from time to time but all that was in the past because she was now no longer having any problem with forgetting anything.

We, her friends and family, were all looking askance at each other as she paused.  Then she said, “At least, that is, I no longer remember forgetting things.”  Then she laughed wholeheartedly, thanking us for being concerned about her and for sticking by her side.
