Developing your own belief system as you mature

by Gary Jenkins

This one will get me in trouble but I must express myself.

Way way back when I was a little kid I thought that God was an old white haired and bearded man who sat on a throne and watched everything all of us did and was ready to kill us at any given moment if our crime deserved such punishment.

Now I know that God is much more subtle and very forgiving.

As I grew I became more and more aware of the awesome beauty which surrounds all of us.I also knew that the world was full of ugly horrible pain which could not be erased by any human effort.

So I decided to join the "good" side.I mean, if there are two distinct sides,then I wanted to be on the good side and be a "positive" and not a "negative".I gave my blood. I donated time at the local food bank.I did everything I could do to be of help to this world.

But one day I came across a punk who was being mean to an old guy. He was posturing himself over the old man,who was down on the ground and crying.I had just happened to turn a corner and saw this evil punk berating and humiliating this old man on the ground.Something clicked inside me.I ran as fast as I could and put my good shoulder into the punk.He flew a good 20 feet before he landed in the trash cans.I told the old man to get out of here and he slowly ambled off.The punkster wasn't done though,so he came back at me with full force.This was where my training kicked in and I took him as he flew into me with all of his fury and simply turned him to the ground.

The people who want to hurt the United States of America must realize that we are a quiet people.But if you decide to try to hurt us,we will respond with a deadly force which you cannot comprehend.We are in every state.We are in every valley.We are are on the highest mountain and in every river and creek that flows through this land!

We are Americans!We rule this land from sea to shining sea!Do not think you can take us over,because we are BORN FREE!And we will stay FREE!I will fight to the death and so will all of my brothers who have trained in boot camps as military specialists.We are very large and very strong American boys and girls who know how to eliminate the threats to our country in very quick and very nasty ways.

I know I departed from the subject matter, but I feel that this is part of my belief system,my country.I also believe that ther are infiltrators out there who want us to fall silently into their trap.We are being taken over by a silent and deadly group of conspirators. Just walk for awhile in my shoes. I can hear those voices which are trying to downgrade my country. If I were you, I would get the hell out of this country before you get tracked down by me. I am locked and loaded. Go home! Go home now!

This is probably not going to get out to the terrorists, but I wish it would express how I wish I could take them by their necks and choke them until they were dead. Funny how a pacifist becomes "Holy". And what is holy?

I am going mad. I am losing consciousness over pain. I will become homeless over this. I know that I will be living under a bridge.
