    How Long Must Terrorism Go On? How Long?
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  12-30-2009   
     As U2 sings, "How long must this go on; how long?" Religion was not established to murder and be blessed. What wayward thinking that will only bring doom to those who kill in the name of God.

    by GlennFrancoSimmons  8-16-2009    1
     When reading some of my selections, please keep in mind that the Bahai Faith comes from the East, and in the West, we often takes them literally. That said, you are left to your own thoughts and conclusions.

    Unity In Diversity: The Bahai Concept
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  7-16-2009   
     This column explores the use of Bahai concepts and terms. Despite the seeming similarity, there is a vast difference between secular words and/or terms and what they mean to Bahais and others in a spiritual sense. This is not to cast negativity on those who adopt such words and/or terms, just a post to note the difference.

     On a warm day with an ever-so-slight breeze, I toured the San Jose Heritage Rose Gardens, contemplating what that song would be, an answer to the query, "if life were a song, then what would your song be?"

    Program Distorts Christianity
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  7-8-2009    1
     It's rather typical these days to see distortions in mass media, since the "profession" is going through a transition in which a lot of veterans are leaving. Thus, what are left are the least-skilled in many cases. It shows.

    Ignorance About Religion Leads To Stereotypes, Prejudicial Statements
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  2-1-2009   
     When talking about religions, we must be careful not to lump together all people of a religion for the crimes of leadership and/or other self-professed co-religionists. To do so leads to prejudice and stereotypes, both of which are repugnant and intolerant.

    The Five Pillars
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  1-29-2009    18
     I have a soft spot in my heart for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, a religion whose members are often murdered in some countries. Their mosque in London is a beautiful testament to their beliefs. On this clip, it talks about Islam's Five Pillars and obedience to God. I, as a Westerner, have much to learn from the Ahmaidis, especially those whom I know and respect, the most devout being Professor Abdul Aziz in California.

     When religion and terrorism mix, they are even more dangerous than either taken together. In other words, the sum of the parts are more deadly than any part taken alone.
