I enjoy your work and I am not persecuted by your art; if I was, I would spend my time in self examination not lashing out at others. I too believe that our Constitution was Christ (God in the flesh) inspired. I only hope that someday our leaders in Washington start following this precious document.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06155388116672530585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267293336542564112.post-57324138764278462372011-08-10T20:44:38.972-07:002011-08-10T20:44:38.972-07:00A wise man once told me that there is a difference...A wise man once told me that there is a difference between a man with knowledge and a man who has been filled with wisdom. <br /><br />Intellectual Knowledge comes through books and school. A Judge is filled with intellectual worldly knowledge. He has been taught by those who wish to take over this world. This does not mean that he is bad. There are people filled with the spirit of our Heavenly Father.<br /><br />A Wise man is one who has been touched by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit can touch each of us and help teach us of the marvels of our Heavenly Father. <br /><br />When we mix this wisdom with the humility of God gospel, we will help those in need willingly. We will make sure there are no needy among us. We will love one another because we are brothers and sisters, even the Jewish people! This makes us a righteous people before God. Instead of being forced by a government that is taking 60% of my income to give to those unwilling to work for the money the government spreads through social justice.<br /><br />Chose for yourself. The Intellectual, or worldly, form of knowledge. Or being touched by the Holy Spirit and sharing in the wisdom of our Heavenly Father.<br /><br />I like what Davey Crockett said as he was trying to get others to help at the Alamo. "You may all go to Hell, I will go to Texas". Others can chose going to hell. As for me, I will chose to listen to the Holy Spirit and gain my wisdom from Heavenly Father as I help my fellow man.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07177206130840158286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267293336542564112.post-58446126758346653402011-08-10T14:52:43.962-07:002011-08-10T14:52:43.962-07:00The judge is guilty of that which he has accused y...The judge is guilty of that which he has accused you, Jon: Emotional, snap judgment, without enough information or common sense to make any kind of wise judgment. With an attitude like that, what chance at justice is there for those who must appear in that particular judge's court?Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07843239483061220089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267293336542564112.post-91967026573262661292011-08-10T13:58:01.975-07:002011-08-10T13:58:01.975-07:00Jon,

This judge's comments (assuming you posted them here without alteration) include grammatical errors and poorly-formed sentences. What's most concerning, though, about this judge's comments is that he doesn't seem to take the time to investigate your work and the stories behind them - which, as an artist, you're not obligated to provide - in order to make a sound and valid judgement. Even without your background comments I would never assume you feel that ALL politicians, judges and Hollywood professionals are in the wrong, liberal or leftist. It saddens me that we have someone in a position of making judgements about other people's lives that clearly isn't capable of following any kind of proper method for developing a conclusion. Thanks for sharing.Brian Satchfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10004560321263962914noreply@blogger.com
