~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Greatness Of A Nation And Its Moral Progress Can Be Judged By The Way Its Animals Are Treated. ~~Ghandi~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Do You LOVE DOLPHINS and WHALES? I Do Too!! Did You Know that these Beautiful Creatures are Currently Being Brutally Hunted And Killed By The Whaling Industries, who are in Violation of International Treaties that are supposed to Protect These Peaceful Creatures of the Sea?! Dolphins and Whales stick together very closely as a Family and the death of just one traumatizes the whole Group. Dolphins and Whales are Protected under International Law and the Endangered Species Act and Countries That Support Illegal Whaling and Illegal Fishing Practices are in Extreme Violation of these Laws. These Gentle Giants Deserve To Be Protected Fiercely and if we are to close our eyes to these issues and not be aware of them, then we are truly ignorant. Please Help Save the World's Dolphins and Whales by signing onto the following Websites to Learn more about the Cruel Slaughter that is currently happening today and see what You Can do to Help End the Senseless Murder of these Innocent and Beautiful Animals. These Websites will allow you to TAKE ACTION For Free by Signing Petitions and Sending Letters to the Leaders of these Countries to Help Stop These Horrific Crimes.

Once when he was scheduled to perform at a Peace Rally, a gunman came into his house and shot him down. Two days later he walked out on the stage and performed. When he was asked why, he replied that the people trying to make the World worse are not taking a day off, how can I? Light up the darkness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Love Is My Religion Lyrics by Ziggy Marley~ Yeah Love is my religion I'll take you to the temple tonight All my days I been searching To find out what this life is worth Through the books and bibles of time I've made up my mind I don't condemn I don't convert This is the calling have ya heard From all the lovers to the folk Cause no one is gonna lose their soul Hey Love is my religion Hey you can take it or leave it And you don't have to believe it I don't want to fight Hey let's go fly a kite There's nothing that we can't cure And I'll keep you in my arms for sure So don't let nobody stop us Free spirits have to soar With you I share the gift The gift that we now know Oh Love is my religion I said you can take it or leave it You don't have to believe it Well I'm done searching now I found what this life is worth Not in the books did I find But by searching my mind I don't condemn I don't convert This is the calling have ya heard From all the lovers to the folk No one is gonna lose their soul Love is my religion Hey you can take it or leave it You don't have to believe it Love is my religion So you can take it or leave it Now do you believe All We Need Is LOVE. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I Have Always Wished Peace, Love And Respect For People Of All Faiths, However I Love and Support Freedom From All Organized Religion, And I Believe In Evolution, FreedomFromReligion.Com, EvolveFish.Com, Keeping Evolution Education In The Classroom, Atheism, Secularism, Laicism/Laïcité, Separation Of Church And State, Including Keeping Religion Out Of Public Schools And Religion Should Never Play Any Role In Foreign Policy Decisions AND The Supreme Court Should Uphold The Constitution WITHOUT Catering To Religious Dogma.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Imagine A World With No Religion.

Books:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "If one Believes that the World is going to come to an end, does it not drain one's motivation to Improve Life while we're here? Religion Is Dangerous because it allows human beings, who don't have all the answers, to Think they do. The solace and comfort that religion brings You actually comes at a terrible price. When Revelations was written only God had the capacity to End the World but now Man does too because unfortunately before Man figured out how to be Rational or Peaceful he figured out Nuclear Weapons and how to Pollute on a Catastrophic Scale. I certainly honestly believe religion is detrimental to the Progress of Humanity."~Bill Maher quote from Religulous ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We Must All Learn To EVOLVE and CoExist Together In Global Peace and Harmony. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Live Life Based On The Philosophies Of Chi, Yin-Yang, Achieving And Promoting Balance And Respecting Karma. ~Namaste~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Live Like Water Gracefully Flowing Down Through The River Of Life Avoiding Resistance And Living Peacefully.~ ~~Buddha~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Do Not Look To Address Today's Problems With Yesterday's Solutions.Today's Challenges Need Today's Answers, Based On The Best Of What We've Learned From All Of Our Life's Teachers. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Metallica says, "Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged Yourself!" The Moment That Judgment Stops Through Acceptance Of What Is, You Are Free Of The Mind. You Have Made Room For Love, Joy And Peace. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace cannot be kept by Force; it can only be achieved by Understanding. You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war. ~Albert Einstein~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I Have Seen Enough Of One War Never To Wish To See Another. ~Thomas Jefferson~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There was never a good war, or a bad Peace. ~Benjamin Franklin~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An Eye For An Eye Will Make Us All Blind. ~Mahatma Ghandi~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Our Lives Begin To End The Day We Become Silent About Things That Matter.
