But did you notice racial harmony, love instead of hate, kindness instead of violence, the building up instead of destroying, words in prayer of love instead of words that destroy and promote hatred.At first I thought this must have been shot prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. Then I saw maybe 12 people in the crowds wearing masks. While raising our voices together in song, it also raises a mushroom cloud of fine water droplets ascending and descending with their voices onto everyone around them. And like bringing home take-out Chinese food, their families and friends and elderly parents will get a misfortune cookie with that that takeout order.
Even our protestors here work masks as they protested, for the most part. But we should expect to see a swell of infections to raise substantially over the next two weeks. I really don't understand why most of those in this video did not cover their mouths and noses around everyone else. That kind of detracts from the who thing.
Sure, I saw that. But faith needs to be wise and tempered with good health practices. That would send a stronger message, loving and responsible for their neighbor's health. "We shall overcome", is not helped along by giving each other a disease which kills them.But did you notice racial harmony, love instead of hate, kindness instead of violence, the building up instead of destroying, words in prayer of love instead of words that destroy and promote hatred.
The back and forth in this thread underlines for me the essential collision of this time.
We have a "President" preaching hatred and using the law enforcement to attack peaceful protesters so he can have a photo-op.
We have a pandemic where people are called to care for others by wearing masks. Caring that way is a form of love.
We have racial injustice that has created a firestorm of protest and looting.
It's too bad that caring in the form of wearing masks and caring for people of different races did not come together.

You are my friend.Lemme guess. Jesus?
Trump certainly hasn't been doing this. What "love" do you ever hear coming from his lips? Which "kindness"? Which "words of prayer"?But did you notice racial harmony, love instead of hate, kindness instead of violence, the building up instead of destroying, words in prayer of love instead of words that destroy and promote hatred.
Can't argue with that!!Trump certainly hasn't been doing this. What "love" do you ever hear coming from his lips? Which "kindness"? Which "words of prayer"?
Trump openly admitted that he took his cues from Roy Cohn of "Red Scare" notoriety and who was Joseph McCarthy's lawyer. And he taught Trump to always play offense and to never apologize. The Trump's hired him as their main lawyer decades ago, and he was as crooked as the day is long, thus eventually getting disbarred. He also served as an advisor to Roger Stone.

I'm not a Christian, of course, but if Christians want to celebrate treating each other as brothers and sisters in spite of race etc, I'm all for it.Lemme guess. Jesus?
