People are People

We are all made up of the same materials. Bone, Blood, Tissue, Organs, Skin, Hair... Heart, Mind, Body & Soul.

Who cares what color my skin is or what God I do or do not pray to?

Am I not a person just like you?

There is no need for uniformity in a world as big as the one we live in. Each man and woman has a right to be an individual, practice what ever faith they choose and LIVE their lives. The freedom to choose our own thoughts and actions is what God, any god, intended when we were created; otherwise we would not have Free Will.

Is it really justifiable to hate someone because their views are different from yours? Is it any better to hate them because their skin is a different color than yours or because their religion has them practice their faith differently from ours?

Should a community of men be punished for one man's actions?

Fear and Ignorance only spread more fear and ignorance... try spreading LOVE and ACCEPTANCE and KNOWLEDGE and PEACE...

The lyrics of John Lennon's song "Imagine" still ring true today, even 40 years after they were originally released...

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one


I think it's about time we listen to his message. We could change the world....
