Our Purpose

The world is in chaos. This is a fact, not just idle speculation. All one has to do is turn on the television or radio news, open a newspaper, or go online to the millions of news websites to verify this statement. Humans are inundated daily with news of wars, famines, droughts, earthquakes, fires, floods, freak weather, rampant crime, financial woes, disease, global warming, and more horrors. It seems that no one is safe anywhere.

There is a prevailing air of confusion, uncertainty, despair, and fear among the people of the planet. In the developing countries, hope for the future is a rare commodity. In the developed countries, just trying to keep one’s head above water is the norm. Tension is building by the minute among the great powers of the world; tension that could escalate into devastation too horrible to even imagine. Life, as we know it, could cease to exist.

The purpose of this blog is to bring these happenings to light and to discuss our point of view about these on-going events.

We welcome your comments.

I admire the time and effort it took you in putting this site together. Raising awareness while getting people actively involved is pivotal in the battle for our survival. We must band together if we are to move forward for a better tomorrow. Defending the weak, impoverished, innocent, defenseless, and the least amongst us is all of our responsibility, and one that I'm ashamed to say hasn't been met. Once we as a people start to care and do right by all we will be blessed. We can succeed in providing the needs of everyone if we sincerely start to care. God help us all.

Earth is indeed paramount to our survival, but if we can't love the least of our brothers and sisters, is it plausible to believe we can save the earth?
