American Joint Chiefs Offer Stability



In an overwhelming show of force, the Joint Chiefs of Staff offer Americans reassurance:

of their commitment to our constitution

their commitment to protecting us

their commitment to defend us AGAINST ALL ENEMIES

a clear characterization of the violent riot as an assault on the US

a line that cannot be crossed when it comes to rights - No violence, sedition and insurrection

a reminder of who is the lawful president and Commander in Chief.

**********

The escalating rhetoric and concomitant violent threats, plans, and actions that have divided this nation are now under attack from multiple sources against the backdrop of the most powerful military on earth.

Their carefully crafted text should be studied. As they wrote, these are "unprecedented events." The date, 1621 (1-06-2021) is a date to remember--not only for what happened but also for seeing the rise of power behind this great nation.

Truly the shameful destruction of life and battering of those defending our elected leaders produces deep sadness. But the gradual coming together of elected officials, police and security forces, and now this statement by the Joint Chiefs offers hope for a stable future.

I encourage you to download your copy of their letter here or your favorite source on the web.

9 Beliefs of Christian Counselors

Updated 26 Feb 2018 What Christian Counselors Believe, Value, and Practice Part I: Beliefs I once asked a conservative evangelical Christian Chaplain how he handled counseling when he was pretty sure a dying patient was not a Christian and, according to his tradition, would soon spend eternity in hell. He sincerely said he would have to think about that question. A female health care provider told me she switched jobs so she could work with children rather than seniors, because she believed that, unlike the elderly, children would go to heaven if they died. In this case, her Christian beliefs appeared to have a cause -effect influence on her career. Counselors normally focus on the needs of clients and help clients find solutions in a supportive setting. Theoretically, rapport ought to be enhanced when counselors and clients share common values and beliefs.  Why ask what Christian Counselors Believe? The primary reason ...

EASTER: VARIATIONS IN BELIEF

Differences in Religious & Spiritual Beliefs Relevant to the Easter Story By Geoffrey W. Sutton, Ph.D. at suttong.com Like most Christians, my wife and I attend an Easter Service. And, a s usual, the media rise to the Spring occasion with Bible stories, comments from various religious leaders and a few atheists—just to keep things balanced. Other religions are on the back burner until Monday. So many statements of beliefs come from the Easter events.  For now, here’s a sample of some core beliefs from various sources. God: 51% believe in God as in the Bible Statista (May, 2023) reported US belief "in God as described in holy scriptures" at 51%. Another 22% reported a belief in a higher power or spirit. Pew researchers from 2021 find 58% believe in God as described in the Bible and another 32% believe in a God or Higher Power.  Belief in God is obviously a core belief. U.S. belief has declined to 58% having no doubt God exists and another 17% have do...

Doom and Gloom and Bad Actors

  Sculpture at Terazin  2024 “Those Who Do Not Learn History Are Doomed To Repeat It.” George Santayana ***** A great quantity of information in the form of text, photographs, statues, films, drawings, and paintings portray and honour the lives of those who were victims of the Nazi’s murderous plan. The concentration camps do concentrate one’s focus on a particular era of terror. The evidence from the past 80 years suggests Santayana was right and wrong. In a sense, his statement was too general to be contradicted. For example, the specific conditions that generated and maintained the Nazi system of mass murder are unlikely to be replicated; however, some timeless characteristics of human nature persist. ***** I’m a psychologist and not a historian yet, I come away from recent visits to several Nazi terror sites with some impressions. 1. Religion supports dictators. Horrible leaders often have an amiable relationship with the larger religious groups who fail to dissuade th...
