old shoes need new souls...dignity

hi everyone, i've been here for a while, mostly just to read and comment but certain issues are getting to me and i'd like to challenge good minds to think greater, for themselves and for everyone else, so here it is.... my first thread...
no particular agenda just search your heart for a better understanding, thnx

i would appreciate it if noone directly responded to any of this, it's all hypthetical, just ask yourslf and if you have an honest answer i would like to ask all who take this matter seriously to promote for the better and not dish out negativity as it can only lead to dead ends. thank you to all who reach out to greater lengths.

obama has never defended his legitamacy of presidency? why should anyone else?

when is the last time the bar has been risen?
when is the last time you raised the bar?

when is the last time the bar has been lowered?
when is the last time you lowered the bar?

hate crimes?
does it make it better or worse that a homosexual is killed over a heterosexual?
does it make it okay that a jew is robbed over a muslim?
does it make it acceptible that a caucasion is raped over an african american?
get rid of it? get rid of it all?
what faith do you honor that favors one human identity over the rest?
all life is life? none is lacking under or greater over than the other? do we not all laugh the same? do we not all cry the same? do we not all hunger the same?
end this bigotry? forfeit your social identity? honor your humanity? forgive your mother and father? cherish your bother and sister? love your son and your daughter?

would you want the bar lowered for you? for your children?

michelle obama " i am black before i am a student"?
i am a student and practitioner in the house of my lord?
i am a parent before my children?
i am a servant before my master?
i am an employee before my employer?
i am a citizen before my government?
i am what i am before i am nothing after i am what i am at where i am at?

raise the bar!
abandon the lies that have taught you!!
defend the truth!!!
there you wil find your dignity before your lord!!!!

ATS introduction forum is ment for introductions only so this may get closed, Just get your 20 posts and you start your thread anywhere you like!

registered in 2005, introduction in 2009......

That has to be some kind of record!! Please put up this same thread under a different forum because it is a beauty and deserve attention just not in the introduction section.

Peace
