Well folks, to date the blogging has been fun. I am only to report that I have 2 critics known to me, but surely more will collide with my pen. They seem to avoid my handshake.
That said, I am not going to close the door on free speech.
I must say my activities began with Facebook. Around March/April of last year, I began a campaign to work on the works that lead to the book Heresy and Good Fortune. It was fun. It was a new writing experience. Prior to that my activities were limited to any email I might send or the chat circuit online.
I did in April last year begin the idea of writing "May it be" sayings. To add further emphasis I would conclude my comment by the adage "Baruch Hashem". To bless our Creator is to stay out of trouble I say. You can not do wrong, right? Well, I've had a few who have addressed me with displeasure. One with concern in that time. I was a little bit anxious with desire to serve our Creator as I may personally have done. I do think I did so. I railed in my facebook postings for about 10 days about topics of discussion, some good some not so pleasant. I have since taken a number down.
One was a topic that I did not keep up long, but I was quickly learning my organization limitations. I wrote a brief tidbit about congratulating the idea that an abortion provider who did late term abortions may be removed from his post. It was misinterpreted I learned later by a fellow in my town that I was "endorsing the death of another person". Not so. I am not going to approach abortion not just because it is a hot bed issue but simply because I really can not say in any way that I know Gods plan in regards to providing abortions (well I would think that our Creator is against the indiscriminate death to a living fetus or soon to be newborn). But that said, I can not be sure that a woman's sanity and health are not our Creator's concern as well. Torah does not address the unborn to any great deal. I am not going to tell any woman to do so, but if a lady must feel this is her necessity, I am not going to hate her mind and being for her choices. We should do our best to provide counseling to others. I can report that I have even given a small token supportive gesture of contribution to Planned Parenthood. They do a lot more than just counsel a woman regarding her idea of abortion. I say they are an essential element of our culture. Birth control and sexual illness counseling and treatment are major concerns that I consider. That said, to my dear ally I hope that has shared his concern regarding my ideas regarding "killing an abortion provider" I must say this: It is a shame that our nation has come to the extent that abortion is such a dividing issue. We must not limit our freedoms and yet we must consider that of the newborn as well. I must say that you (my friend) are right in noting my comment, but it has been stricken from the record. I do not think you or any other mature reader of my facebook posts is going to do any such thing and so I must say I have done no harm. Question my mental health as you have is your prerogative. I'll let my physicians be my guide as to whether I need treatment or hospitalization. Your further assault on my persona was in my thoughts a case of godlessness on your part. I know you well and I am less impressed with your calculations and your "conservative" stances.
