The Courage Pledge



* I believe in the inherent dignity of all people.

* I will not submit to outrage mobs.

* I will stand for the truth, not your truth or my truth.

* I will not hang that sign on my office door, make that symbolic gesture and so on if I don’t believe in its message.

* I will not denounce my friend.

* I am not ashamed of traditional faith or the American flag.

Crazy World Crazy Times





“Fireplace” by R.E.M.

Crazy, crazy world
Crazy, crazy times
Crazy, crazy world
Crazy, crazy times

Hang up your chairs to better sweep
Clear the floor to dance
Shake the rug into the fireplace

Crazy, crazy world
Crazy, crazy times
Crazy, crazy world
Crazy, crazy times

Hang up your chairs to better sweep
Clear the floor to dance
Sweep the floor into the fireplace

Hang up your chairs to better sweep
Clear the floor to dance
Throw the chairs into the fireplace

Hang up your chairs to better sweep
Clear the floor to dance
Throw the walls into the fireplace
