Speculations on the Nature of Evil by Connie Cook Smith-----------------------I realize that activists in progressive political and religious movements tend to believe there are no evil souls. My own personal belief is that the eternal essence of a person is the purest energy.However, the widespread mental and emotional failure of our population to recognize the reality and the dynamics of human

A CONTROVERSIAL SUBJECT by Connie Cook Smith - - - A 5-minute video illustrates that outright evil men and women are operating under cover of religion in Israel -- and by biblical association -- likewise in the U.S. Just as insiders have admitted the Bush regime is not really Christian (see below), America needs to know the Israeli government is not really Jewish. Have you (and most American

False Religion, or False History?by Connie Cook Smith------------------According to Mother Jones magazine, Ohio televangelist Rod Parsley is John McCain's "spiritual guide." Rev. Parsley preaches : "...America was founded, in part, with the intention of seeing this false religion (Islam) destroyed."

HOW 9/11 NEARLY HAPPENED IN THE 1960'Sby Connie Cook Smith----------------------A few months before September 11th, a seemingly kooky and irrelevant news story was circulated by ABC. It was about James Bamford's book, "Body of Secrets," which featured declassified documents that revealed a shocking plot by the U.S. Joint Chiefs 40 years earlier. In an official proposal to President Kennedy, our

WHAT Morals? WHAT Family Values?by Connie Cook Smith-----------Now that the Bush administration is more outgoing than ongoing, their facade of "morals" and "family values" is cracking. Their blithe acceptance of Mary Cheney's lesbian pregnancy and no censures in the Mark Foley scandal give additional credence to David Kuo's claims about hypocritical White House attitudes, such as "evangelicals

"BOBBY" AND AMERICAN VALUESby Connie Cook Smith-------"Bobby," the movie out now about the 1968 assassination of RFK, is introducing a new generation to values we've nearly forgotten: ensuring peace instead of insisting on war, protecting the middle class instead of destroying it, holding corporations accountable instead of putting profits above all.The Kennedy's (and Dr. Martin Luther King,

HOW SEPTEMBER 11th REALLY HAPPENED by Connie Cook Smith- - - - The problem is, not enough people know that the U.S. government is deeply infiltrated by people who want to destroy the Constitution and end American freedom. - - - - I know there is tremendous resistance to looking at the now-overwhelming evidence that our government planned and carried out 9/11. But once you see how infiltrated

THE TRUTH ABOUT ISRAEL"What America Needs to Know"by Connie Cook SmithAmericans are confused about the morality of modern-day Israel, because our churches and schools leave out essential Jewish history. The European people who were sent to occupy Palestine as a Jewish homeland in 1948 are not related to the biblical Hebrews of Jesus' time. The Middle-Eastern Jews and Arabs both are semitic
