Reflections on My Personal Theology
Over the years I have learned about the importance of faith in what I call the life force, the Great Spirit or the Higher Self. Truth unfolds on a daily basis through intuition, experience, observation, conversation, informed judgment, being questioned while questioning, reflection, quiet listening, and secluded contemplation.
A Dialogue with the Great Spirit
O Great Spirit
Thank you for guiding our superior country,
the United States,
to conduct with nearly 2,000 military aircraft
2,000 bombing missions a day
or 85 every hour
for days on end
to "crush, clobber and devastate"
the country of Iraq
and Sheikdom of Kuwait
with so few casualties of our own.
Thank you for endowing us with the fine resources
and technical brilliance
to arm each bomber with three million dollars in ordnance
possessing amazing accuracy and guidance.
