Star Trek has always offered a positive vision of the future, a vision of hope and optimism, and most importantly, a vision of inclusion, where people of all races are accorded equal respect and dignity, where individual beliefs and lifestyles are respected so long as they pose no threat to others. We cannot turn our backs on what is happening in the upcoming election. Never has there been a presidential candidate who stands in such complete opposition to the ideals of the Star Trek universe as Donald Trump. His election would take this country backward, perhaps disastrously. We need to elect a president who will move this country forward into the kind of future we all dream of: where personal differences are understood and accepted, where science overrules superstition, where people work...

Dear Mrs. Clinton,
Back in the early nineties is when I first seriously started paying attention to you.
Your husband, Bill Clinton was running for President. The year was 1991.
When Bill's affair with model, Gennifer Flowers came to light, I thought you were a strong woman for staying in the marriage. That took a lot of strength and courage.
Well, that scandal didn't hurt him and Mr. Clinton went on to win the election.
Then, in 1997 a young woman by the name of Monica Lewinsky came out and said that she too had an affair with Bill Clinton. After many denials from your husband and a blue dress that Ms. Lewinsky wisely saved with Mr. Clinton's DNA on it, he finally admitted that yes, he did in fact, have sexual relations with her.
You continued to stand by him. I...

To all Americans,
I am a small business owner who knows very well how complex our tax code is. I pay a CPA to handle my taxes as most business owners do. In fact, most working Americans either hire a CPA, use a “brick & mortar” like H&R Block, purchase software or use online services to prepare their taxes. The amount of Americans who sit down with an IRS instruction booklet and tackle the feat themselves is less than 10%. This is common knowledge and something most all Americans know and understand. My question is; how ignorant are people and the media who comment on the statements made between Trump and Clinton in the first debate on Trump’s taxes? Who in their right mind really believes a billionaire actually prepares his or her own taxes? Secondly, where is an...

Mrs. America Writes the Open Letter to the Trump Campaign
"I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change."
Michael Jackson
Dear Mr. Trump,
Wake up from creating Trump nightmares and Pray! Make the change to the bright morning of allegiance to SLAM, the silent current of SpiritLit Americans flowing beneath all the noise in the media. SLAMS, regardless of their heritage or religion, give first allegiance to "In God We Trust". These spiritual patriots practice faith and sincere prayer in private for their loved ones, community, and country.
SLAMS also know that you are unqualified...

I respectfully ask you to read the letters sent to Senator Hillary Clinton and to FBI Director Robert Mueller dated September 15th, 2001 - one week following the 911 mass murder of almost 3,000 Americans here http://www.scam.com/entry.php?3644-Hillary-Clinton-The-FBI-Director-and-the-Bush-Family-Knew-The-Saudis-Paid-For-the-911-Murders-BEFORE-and-Again-1-Week-After-911-Here-Is-The-Proof!

An open letter to my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ: As we are on the verge of the first presidential debate for this election cycle, many are getting pumped up and ready to watch their guy/gal destroy the other person and “win”. I humbly ask you to think about this? Who will win the debate? Will good triumph over evil? Before we fill-in-the-blank with the name of our favorite candidate, let me rephrase the question. How is a “win” possible when we are divided in the Church? We are divided in the Body of Christ, brother against brother and sister against sister. Who wins when we lambast the other side more than we pray for them? Who wins when we don’t see that both sides have good and bad viewpoints? Who wins? Not the Body; not the great commission, not what our Lord and Savior...

Attention American Voters - Our Elcoral Process has been hijacked and subverted by the 1% to keep the banksters and their puppet politicians in power - forever. Excluding Jill Stein and Gary Johnson from the debates and sabotaging Bernie Sanders was just the beginning. Here is what you are not supposed to know...
First the proven primary election frauds of New York, California, Nevada, Iowa, and Arizona cheat Senator Bernie Sanders out of the DNC nomination while the FEC and Congress turned a blind eye. Now the FEC is allowing Presidential debates to continue with only half of the FOUR presidential candidates to continue depriving WE THE PEOPLE of the opportunity to know ALL the candidates including Jill Stein and Gary Johnson.
This is a disgraceful example of passive censorship...

---- Why Freiburg canceled the statue
Freiburg canceled the setup of "comfort women" statue. - http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/news/2016/09/21/0200000000AEN20160921007900315.html
Before that, Matsuyama-city ( sister-city ) expressed their concern and Japanese government officials protested. They would have explained the basis why they expressed or protested.
In Japan, it is not disclosed what the explained basis was. But many Japanese know it would be "The statue does not merely symbolize the eradication of violence to women. But it symbolizes a condemnation and ethnic denigration of Japan. Therefore, it evokes diplomatic conflicts among Germany, the South Korea and Japan." - http://www.opnlttr.com/letter/comfort-women-statue-freiburg-prosecuting-japan-they-publicly-disclosed...

To the Office of the Holy Father,
I have now had several email exchanges with prominent Catholic figures in the US (mostly one sided but I have had a few replies). The hour is grave. We have people pretending to be Christian while promoting a fear-mongering racist demagogue. We know that several phony evangelicals have pledged support to Trump as long as he masquerades as a Christian during the election and promises to repeal the "Johnston Amendment" if elected (not that his promises carry any weight). What it really boils down to is that if the Catholic Church can support a vile opportunist who embodies all the worst of humanity then the Church is nothing but a fraud!
I was raised Catholic. I have always (and continue) to believe in God. What is in question here is the legitimacy of...
