Notes:
Not
as big a Saturday as I would have hoped, but rest and recuperation are
also part of the game. I got a lot of rest, and still managed to get in
music and movie work done. Maybe I can get started on the bin
organization.
I found an interesting set of graphics purporting to show the Four Things the Occupy Wall Street protesters Are Angry About.
I think it is worth a look. As much as (ahem) mainstream media would
like to portray the protesters as unfocused and lacking a central goal,
note these charts come from The Business Insider, so somebody gets it.
If you match these graphics up with this clip of an Occupy Wall Street protester
bringing u some very good points about wanting to see more “Jesus stuff
like helping the poor.” Wow! I wonder why that clip never made it to
Fox!
If you haven’t read it, please take a look at this letter to the editor in the 13 October Baltimore Sun. To recap, the author, Michelle D. Breau, made a very 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.”
To
reiterate, TQ and John Paul II did not see eye to eye on many things,
but on the t the dangers of concentrating the world’s resources in the
hands of a few, they were in lock step. Take a look at the trailer for
TQ’s book, “A Reluctant Malachi.”
TQ states many churches have missed this point entirely. Note how
TQ’s description of our responsibility dovetails with Occupy Wall
Street. Pay particular particular to his ending statement, “The rich
get richer and...”
