I read some time back that internet via computers that were to be donated, would be powered by riding one's bicycle, and I thought, what a great idea! Then everyone anywhere, regardless of the electricity could have internet access for a village, or if not everyone, then some. It is like when there was a phone for the village and everyone borrowed it. My daughter was in the Peace Corps and I understand what the goal is, and the intent of global philanthropy to raise the worldwide consciousness of nations, tribes, tongues, that are different from our own nations'. I think the blog is one of the most powerful communicative forces known to mankind. It is spontaneous and it allows the different peoples of the world to bypass the political rhetoric, and the mainstream presses of their own nation to understand with an upclose and personal look at how other people live, think, feel about issues and how we are all, after all, made in the image of GOD, and ultimately accountable to GOD. For all the differences from one nation to another, or one Kingdom to another, or one tribe to another, or one "ethnic" group to another. or one language to another, all humans have much in common. We all experience sickness from time to time, or dis-ease, or social, political, cultural, environmnents, and we all know hunger from time to time, and we all have thirst, and we all [or most all,those in the womb are human but cannot speak yet] speak, and think, and emote. The characteristics that humans have in common are greater in number than the characteristics we don't have in common. Therefore, humans must acknowledge that it is the duty, yes, a duty, to protect and help other humans. In order to do that, knowledge of the facts and enough genius to create, or find the proper kind of tools, must be allowed, tolerated by governments, promoted, acknowledged, and encouraged. I appreciate bloggers from all nations and I blog also, and it is one of the ways of communicsting my mission/goals to others. Because I am a Registered Nurse I do have concern that well-being and good health is available and I also believe that such cannot be "given" to anyone, but that the impetus for such comes from within. JESUS said, "the kingdom of GOD is within you." and I believe that is very true. The ability to choose life, in all ways, is a decision that each person makes individually regardless of the state of one's purse,or government rules, or government interventions. I ask you all to "choose life" in accordance with Deuteronomy 30:19, King James Holy Bible. Also, because I have some limitations also, I "work" on the internet to communicate good healthy lifestyles and the prolife message that GOD creates life in the womb, and wants all human life since humans are HIS handiwork. Think about Adam and Eve, how GOD created them with HIS own hands! I have many websites and blogs for teaching but two that may interest those of you interested in promoting good health are: http://gloriapoolepappas.RNurse.googlepages.com/ and http://onlineeducator.bravehost.com/ . Consider me a friend of all nations and all people. signed gloria Nata Village and PCV’s: I am very glad to read this article.
