Notes:
Digitized
a whole tape from the 30 October (2008) shoot with TQ. Listened to
Karen Everett’s affirmations for the first 30 minutes, then locked in on
what TQ talked about. For 2008, a lot of what he says has relevance
today, especially when it comes to the Occupy Wall Street movement. I
will try to get some of that footage up on the blog before the weekend,
but it is the same rap he gives on the video for the book.
I implore you to check out the graphics purporting to show the Four Things the Occupy Wall Street protesters Are Angry About.
It is worth a look. As much as mainstream media would like to portray
the protesters as unfocused, these charts come from The Business
Insider, so somebody gets it. Compare these graphics up with this clip of an Occupy Wall Street protester
raising good points about wanting to see more “Jesus stuff like helping
the poor.” No wonder the clip never made it to Fox News!
Tie all of that in with this letter to the editor in the 13 October Baltimore Sun. The author, Michelle D. Breau, makes an astute connection between the Occupy Wall Street movement and Pope John Paul II’s warning the “...all-consuming desire for profit and
the thirst for power at any price with the intention of imposing one’s
will upon others are opposed to the will of God and the good of
neighbor.”

| "The Pope's Revenge" |
Unsurprisingly,
TQ and John Paul II did not see eye to eye on many things, but were in
lock step on the dangers of concentrating the world’s resources in the
hands of a few. In the trailer for TQ’s book, “A Reluctant Malachi.”
TQ states many churches have missed this point entirely. Note TQ’s
description of our responsibility dovetails with Occupy Wall Street.
