January 29, 2018

Phil Beaver seeks to collaborate on the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered. The comment box below invites readers to write.
"Civic" refers to citizens who collaborate for responsible freedom more than for the city.
A personal paraphrase of the June 21, 1788 preamble:  We the civic citizens of nine of the thirteen United States commit-to and trust-in the purpose and goals stated herein --- integrity, justice, collaboration, defense, prosperity, liberty, and perpetuity --- and to cultivate limited services to us by the USA. I am willing to collaborate with other citizens on this paraphrase, yet may settle on and would always preserve the original text.   

Our Views (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/our_views/article_d6ccb3a8-fada-11e7-85c9-73c947be7b96.html)

I appreciate both The Advocate’s opinion and the editors’ frank presentation.

Pipelines are by far the safest way to transport oil and gas compared to roads and rails.” That blunt statement made me realize more than ever before that the pipeline will relieve the I-10 bridge to an extent that surprises Louisiana residents and the nation’s travelers.

Thank you, The Advocate.
  
Today’s thought, G.E. Dean (Psalms 37:25-27 CJB), The Advocate, January 29, 2018, 5B.
I have been young; now I am old; yet not once have I seen the righteous abandoned or his descendants begging for bread.  All day long he is generous and lends, and his descendants are blessed. If you turn from evil and do good, you will live safely forever.”

Dean, about V. 25, says, “God is faithful. He will take care of Him own.”

David wrote ideas but acted badly, for example, killing a husband to take his wife. Dean quotes David to insinuate---tacitly state---that I, a human sufferer, am not of God. Dean is offensive to express such hubris. These are my opinions.

I commend The Advocate to stop publishing harmful religious ideas. By publishing Dean’s blasphemous coercion, The Advocate turns its back on a first principle of human justice: first, do no harm.

“Checkbook” (Hall) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/letters/article_a5763302-0213-11e8-b6bc-67f444f5f6dd.html)

I agree. Also, I’d like to point it this online transparency would help all citizens, not just taxpayers. It would help Gov. Edwards, who is also a citizen.

Nominations (Coons) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/letters/article_f1703652-021a-11e8-8f94-93ec20900abe.html)

I oppose Duncan and Vitter nominations. I think they both fail a civic culture and would need reform to qualify.

To Philip Frady: This is one of the reasons I write all the time that the GOP needs reform. And like the DNC, I would not mind seeing the GOP fade from the scene.

The era of Judeo-Christian dominance ended with the Civil War. The Bible interpretation that slavery was God's will and that abolitionists would intervene in God's millennial plan to redeem black people was erroneous before the Bible was canonized in about 325 AD. Nevertheless, R. E. Lee expressed that interpretation in an 1856 letter to his wife from Texas: leefamilyarchive.org/9-family-papers/339-robert-e-lee-to-mary-anna-randolph-custis-lee-1856-december-27.
   
Mitch Landrieu made an egregious error when he did not reserve the monuments his city had but attach plaques to attest to this wonderful evidence from the Civil War:  The people who trust and commit to the preamble to the constitution for the USA, whether tacitly or explicitly, ineluctably march toward human justice. Read Abraham Lincoln’s first inaugural address for his thoughts on justice from a civic people.

The Vitters, among other prominent people, express that they could not care less for the preamble: They answer to a higher power. They also ignore Scalia’s advice that that higher power is for the hereafter but human justice is for here and now.

Ineffective writing (Miller) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/letters/article_05d10dba-0216-11e8-a335-8fa4e0ded451.html)

To Scuddy Leblanc: I trust Waguespack learned from past experiences and observations.
 
Also, I trust my observations that Gov. John Bel Edwards expresses evidence that parents should not send their sons and daughters to West Point. Maybe there's offsetting evidence.

The Chruch seems eternally immoral (Kathryn Jean Lopez) (uexpress.com/kathryn-jean-lopez/2018/1/19/love-on-the-march)

I think it is egregious that Lopez did not share the text she referred to. Was it biblestudytools.com/cjb/passage/?q=1-john+5:1-6;+john+15:9-17?

Indeed the basilica is designed to hold 10,000 worshippers: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basilica_of_the_National_Shrine_of_the_Immaculate_Conception.
Young people may observe that worshiping is for the afterdeath, and the Church uses that inspiration to motivate dependency during life. However, before death, the individual has control of his or her energy and may develop the authority and judgement by which to live a full human life.

Complete living is possible with fidelity to the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered. Humankind discovered that heterosexual activity leads to pregnancy. Further, of all the species, the human newborn is most dependent for care. Further, the human is so physically and psychologically powerful that it takes at least two to three decades for him or her to acquire the understanding and intent to live a complete human life.

The-objective-truth is plain, once it is discovered; some examples might help. The earth was like a globe from its beginning, some 4.6 billion years ago: it never was flat. It has never been wise to lie. Slavery was always wrong, even before African started the commodity trade of Africans. 

Slavery was wrong when the Church canonized passages that condone it. Slavery was wrong before the Church “authorized” colonization and monopolies on purchasing the African commodity: Africans. Sex between heterosexuals is intended for psychological bonding in preparation for parenting for life, including the lives of grandchildren and beyond: procreation involves monogamy. Homosexual partners cannot procreate in monogamy: They must create an adult contract with a third party.

People who appreciate “wanting something better, insisting on something better, and most importantly . . . extending a hand to anyone who has been hurt by [1700 years’] pain inflicted on women, men and generations,” may consider developing fidelity to the-objective-truth.

Immoral religious coalition (Joe Morris Doss) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/article_4c3ab84c-0210-11e8-af79-8f774e2b80b7.html)

Mr. Doss happily expresses dissidence against the civic agreement that is stated in the preamble to the constitution for the USA (ratified by representatives of the people of nine of thirteen free and independent states on June 21, 1788). Somewhere along the line the factional Protestants (99% of free inhabitants in 1790) falsely labeled the preamble a secular agreement: it is a civic agreement that is neutral to religion.

Mr. Doss seems a near isolated dissident, belonging to a 1.2% religious faction. Perhaps that’s why he tries to form a Judeo-Christian-Islamic coalition. However, by compromising, he increases the Christian coalition from 70.6% to 72.5% with Jews and on to 73.4% with Muslims. That still leaves 26.6% including the 22.8% with no religious affiliation. That exceeds the 20.8% Catholics. Thus, citizens with no religious affiliation are the religious majority. See pewforum.org/religious-landscape-study/.

The era of Judeo-Christian dominance is over. It is time for people like Doss to consider collaborating with We the People of the United States. According to the agreement that is offered, every willing citizen may collaborate for mutual, comprehensive safety and security so that each individual may pursue the happiness he or she perceives, even while Doss’s Judeo-Christian-Islamic coalition responsibly thrives for the believers sakes under statutory justice. Statutory justice is written law and law enforcement that is discovered in accord with the-objective-truth rather than dominant opinion.
 
Thank you for the chance to talk without lies, Mr. Doss. I hope we collaborate for the achievable better future rather than conflict for dominant opinion. I do not know the-objective-truth but seek it.

Democrats: opioid entrappers---both suppliers and victims (Tyler Bridges) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/crime_police/article_7c667572-02f8-11e8-ba90-53c92cef1f7c.html)

To Scuddy Leblanc: Tyler Bridges wrote and The Advocate published information about the opioid crisis; that’s about as close as I can imagine journalism, and I am grateful for it. The only thing unreported is any missing information. Thank you for the performance of free and responsible reporting, as much as it may be so.

The next reporting I’d like to see is names of Louisiana participants in the escalation of opioid deaths. Which Louisiana doctors did the escalated prescribing and what suppliers handed over the poison?

Most egregious is the mismanagement by the Louisiana Department of Health in Gov. Edwards’ expansion of Medicaid. Any way you cut it, it is wrongful of Gov. Edwards to yield to the people who stood to gain from his misguided “It’s the right thing to do.” The people who died and their families do not feel good about being pawns in Edwards’ ambitions.

Let me take back the broad-brush approval of this report, to point out an opinion. Bridges’ lead statement, “The latest legal standoff has created a delicious irony,” is dead give-away to writer’s pride. As long as such pride prevents journalistic humility, the writer cannot rise to the profession. The Advocate could lend writers help and directions, if the editors were free and responsible rather than merely free.

Fake news works on percentages. What are the chances most readers gave up before we learned that opioid deaths from this regulatory debacle occurred in time for Edwards to know better? “. . . 92.1 opioid prescriptions were dispensed in 2016 in East Baton Rouge Parish for every 100 people, compared with the national average of 66.5 prescriptions per 100 people. The 2015 rate was even higher at 96.1 prescriptions per 100 people.”

I would like collaboration to discover the-objective-truth; “delicious” is a dead giveaway to press irresponsibility.

Transparent budget (Elizabeth Crisp) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/politics/article_9451929e-0324-11e8-b7a5-c34ca60422a3.html)

This is the first step: online transparency by which civic citizens can discover the theft we have been suffering for decades. But I think Cooper is correct: A civic people will still have to work hard to get the actual data.

Democrats on the run (Tyler Bridges) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/politics/article_805b4388-fd76-11e7-8c31-c351a9e42445.html)

The Democrats sealed their own fate when they collaborated to create AMO, five decades ago. I’m thinking it’s such an infamous story they will never recover. The Congressional Black Caucus may give up the skin color gig, and OFA may realize that coalition for disturbance is dead. Civic morality is not discovered based on skin color or other ethnic distinction: The American republic steadfastly marches toward statutory justice.

The GOP owns no better civic morality, so the recent fear of a resurgence of Judeo-Christian dominance ought to be taken lightly: be the religious believer you are, but it’s an offense to try to impose religion on civic citizens---they have their own beliefs. I’m sharing experience and observations anyone can discover on their own.

The nadir of competition for dominant opinion may have occurred, and the ascent toward mutual, comprehensive safety and security seems underway. Call me a dreamer, but I think many people are paying attention to the civic agreement that is offered by the preamble to the constitution for the USA. On that agreement, the citizens are divided: civic citizens vs dissidents against collaborating to develop statutory justice.

Spite about a man’s death (Mark Sherman and Jessica Gresko) (alvareviewcourier.com/story/2018/01/28/interesting-items/justice-ginsburg-signals-her-intent-to-work-for-years-more/28543.html) 

“When Ginsburg had a second cancer surgery, for pancreatic cancer in 2009, Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., inelegantly forecast that she would die within a year. He later apologized. Bunning died last year.”

I doubt anyone but the people of the Associated Press like such spite.

Holocaust remembered Jan 27 (Vanessa Gera and Matthew Lee) (chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-holocaust-remembrance-day-warning-20180127-story.html)

Grateful as I am for the article, I think The Advocate was negligent in not featuring this even in “Our Views.”

He can bring the racist community together (Emma Discher) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/crime_police/article_2cd96b0e-0073-11e8-81b9-7bd683c68d9d.html)

I appreciate this introduction to Chief of Police Murphy Paul.

Perhaps the toughest job will be repairing what many in the black community say has been a sometimes rocky relationship with the BRPD over the years, brought to light by the Sterling shooting and protests. This was a key priority named by Broome when she talked about finding a new chief.” I hope Paul can distance himself from enforcing statutory justice based on skin color.

“. . . the BRPD will need to complete an internal affairs investigation of whether the officers followed policy in their confrontation with Sterling.” Why isn’t this an independent process that waits not?

I do not condone The Advocate giving an activist a voice in civil events. Anybody can disrupt the civil order, but a responsible press does not support AMO chaos.

I appreciate Murphy Paul volunteering for a great opportunity to serve the civic citizens of Baton Rouge by inspiring dissidents to collaborate for human justice. I think most people are civic citizens, but failure to articulate collaboration for mutual, comprehensive safety and security prevents the public integrity that is possible. The agreement that is stated in the preamble to the constitution for the USA divides inhabitants: civic citizens versus dissident citizens and aliens.

Baton Rouge can be the first US city to establish private liberty with civic morality so that each person may responsibly pursue the happiness he or she perceives rather than the dictates of someone else.
