I wish I had cable so I could watch the baseball playoffs...
i keep hearing the "just words" defense by the tr*mp team for his "locker room-i.e. bragging about sexually abusing women-talk"
The phrase "just words" is such a hollow & empty phrase. Words shape reality. Words, in the scriptures, initiated creation. Words matter.
In October of 2006 Jerry Fallwell was interviewed on 60 Minutes. During the interview he bashed the prophet Muhammad. His "just words" were relayed in Bombay, India which sparked a riot between Muslims and Hindus. By the time the dust settled from the riot 5 people were killed and over 50 were injured. Just words...
More than ever during this election cycle I keep waiting to hear Just Words: reconciliation, deep love, repentances, environmental justice, living wage, reparations, equity, peace, and other just words. till then...
