By February 1968, the U.S. death toll in
Vietnam had risen to more than 500 per week. Riots were happening in cities all across America. I was 15 years
old when my older brothers enlisted in the Navy and Air Force. Most young men who were sent to Vietnam never expected
to return home. While cities were blowing up and young kids were being killed in Vietnam, I played rock and roll music
on the weekends in a band I started called "Soul Sensations". I went to church on Sunday morning and...Click

Can You Help Me Find America?
|
Old men reflect back to a time when they might say,
"America use to be a different place than it is now" Then, they
will say it was either better or worse. America has so many meanings to so many different people. It is a place
of hope for millions and for others it is a place where they feel they have been forgotten. They say there is justice
for all in America. But, most of us after living in America all of our lives want mercy and the
freedom to live our lives in a just way that helps to bring and maintain justice in America.

The Angels of Suicide And Why People Kill Themselves
|
It was like a scene from an old southern movie.
The sheriff driving his car down our long driveway with beautiful old trees on each side was an uncommon occurrence.
In fact until that day I can not recall the sheriff ever visiting our home. It was Saturday. Dad was home and
he met Charlie, the sheriff outside on the front lawn. As Charlie stepped out of his car he said, "Jim we missed
you at the fish fry". Dad said, "Charlie is that a crime? Click the graphic and read more.

Do You Want War? What I Said Is Do You Want WAR
|
The statements I am about to make are like "a walk off
a bridge into the deep icy water below". Let's say these statements
are written with a philosophical view. Many
of you have imagined and or have been taught that you rose up out of the sludge and evolved or became what you now believe is you. Others imagined your history
began with a supreme Diety,.. the God that created you and made you in it's own likeness and image.
But I must tell you... Click

They Are Coming For Your Money. All of it!
Do the poor feel entitled to the money of the middle class? Many of
the poor in America feel they have been screwed over by the middle class. After all, it was a manager in a corporate
office earning a high salary that an unemployed believes took away his or her job just so he or she (the manager) could make
the company look more profitable for one quarter of the year. The fired employee dispises this middle class manager.
When this middle class manager is confronted by his or her actions rather than feel regret, concern or say, "I wish I
could have found another way to deal with the problems, more oftten than not, they have contempt for the fired employee and
would like to take a swat at them with a giant fly swatter. Those who have been made poor through unemployment feel they deserve
the money of the middle class because it is their view that the middle class took away their ability to earn a living. Click

MARRIAGE

Mixed Race Marriages Are On The Rise
|
I performed my first mixed race marriage ceremony in the heart of Dixie (Pleasure Ridge Park on Dixie
Highway) shortly after the busing riots in the 70's. I also, gathered the funds and opened a business (on the side)
to help pay for medical school so my wife could become a physician. In this same era, I was one of the first United
Methodist Ministers to recommend and sponsor the ordination of one of the first female ministers in the Louisville Conference
of the United Methodist Church. None of these decisions were popular or acceptable by many of my church members and
colleagues in the church at that time. Click the photo to read more.
