Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

This is a must view video. The rise of death threats and hate harassment over the last 4 years has been shocking. The targeting of school board officials, politicians, municipal leaders is an open threat to democracy because it targets people who dare step up to serve.

Happy new year in 2025. In 2025 I ask that you practice kindness even the smallest act may mean a great deal. Most often it will cost you nothing but a few minutes of your time and is a part of healing our own spirits and souls.

If people would just have even the barest idea of what guided the main religions of the world then perhaps these religious wars, and hatred could finally stop & It's not religions that are the problem it's evil men who twist them to suit their own purposes & use them as weapons that are the problem

Just read the response from Costco to shareholders requesting it back down from DEI. It was glorious. It begins "Our Board has considered this proposal and believes … an enterprise rooted in respect and inclusion is appropriate and necessary." and gets better. A happy investor #diversityandinclusion

this is an excellent example of how important practice is over theory. pretty much every religion preaches that you should help the poor. most of them do it in patches and places (lots of Unitarian soup kitchens near me.). But Sikhism makes the langar a core part of ritual practice.

Medical historian here to remind you of the benefits of #vaccines! This is the final stage of tetanus when nerves fire continuously & body contorts into agonizing posture known as opisthotonus. The mastication muscles clamp down to form the hallmark lockjaw. A vaccine didn't appear until 1924.

I keep reading that this is a place for kinder people, but gentle souls have always been among us. We just couldn’t hear them anymore. Perhaps our gathering here is proof that we missed those voices. What a wonderful thing to believe about ourselves. It can be a bold move to choose kindness.

I am proud of our Mayor. It means more to me that she is recognized by a “niche” magazine that actually understands the role of municipalities and Mayors. She doesn’t deserve the vitriol that she is continuously subjected to.
