I have mentioned this before. I believe we are going to see a new Works Progress Administration. We may need it; but, the issue is how it is designed. The WPA's focus is on infrastructure. It should create regional infrastructure centers and keep people local, as much as possible.
If we are going to do it, we need to do it soon. It will require a re-thinking of many things. If we care about the millions of unemployed then we will look to create a system of dignity.
You matter, you are important and you are capable of knowing more than you do. You know that you exist and that can lead you to knowing other truths. If you bother, you can know other people and their truths. If you are interested in a subject, click the tag at the bottom of any post for more posts on the same general subject.

Salvation versus Sin
I am feeling a little better and actually ate some soup. I should be going to bed but cannot yet. After being sick I think I am just happy to have it mostly over.
I read this article, it is about some church that was protesting a strip club. I disagree with the Pastor, you cannot shame people into salvation. His focus should salvation and not sin. Salvation starts in the heart, not in the actions.
I am constantly amazed at the degradation I see in the church. I cannot even begin to imagine watching religious television. Mega-churches offend me and what is taught in most churches anymore has little to do with Christianity. I am amazed at how many people call themselves "Christians" and haven't read the bible. I know atheists that know more about the bible.
I am still so don't expect much more. I am surprised I got this post out at all. Be well.

Sorry for not posting
I have been a little under the weather, nothing big. Taking lots of water and resting. Hopefully I will be myself tomorrow. I haven't stayed up on the news. Be well.
