One accomplished an “in your face” feat designed to taunt
and insult Arkansans who believe in the Constitution of the United States of
America, as revised. It wasn’t undertaken because of love of the Galilean. If
you want to study the work of a man who loves the Galilean, come to Little
Rock, Arkansas and follow the Reverend Hezekiah Steward of “The Watershed”
around for a few days.
As a quick aside, the first time I ever saw Reverend Stewart, he was strolling
around Little Rock’s legendary Riverfest Festival. He had a basket strapped to
his shoulder and was mingling among the crowd asking dollars for the poor. He
still follows that goal, and one of the great pleasures of my life is when I am
able to find him and do my share. He inspires love, compassion, and generosity.
I believe the Galilean would be pleased.
Back to the other two I'm talking about today, one uses his “religious”
antics to divide us and to make us hate one another because of our personal spiritual
beliefs. It is sad that he has reached a position of some minor political
power. He inspires distrust, antagonism, and greed. Shame on us for not
electing better people to office.
The other mentally disturbed man in question used the power
of his automobile and his unfortunate disability to destroy the crowning achievement
of the other, a religious marker of a single religion placed in a public place. Sad. I hope the destoyer inspires concern, understanding, and public support for the ill. Shame on us for not taking better care of the least of those
among us.
Let us try, then, in this brief life, to be more like the
Reverend Stewart and to support medical help for the other two.
