It has happened Again! One of the worst mass shootings in American modern history! 
The use of violence in American society will continue to grow until we make peace a priority !!
This kind of violence will increase in America until we make peace our number one concern in this nation. 

The Obsession and fear of not ever having enough is driving the behavior of most of the members of this society. I would also suggest that it is the Western Europeans Obsession with and fear of not having enough materially that is at the root cause of this culture of Violence!  
Dr.Gregory A Jones Summer 2016


We must stop this growing culture of violence!

We must continue to work for peace before this culture of Violence consumes this entire Global community!!

Paris Belgium and mass shootings in America.
The violence continues to escalate and the issues remain the same as we refuse to address the growth of violence around the global community!




We cannot stop violence with violence, someone has to be peacemakers!!!
We must continue to strive for peace , even at the risk of seeing  more violence . We must try to end the use of violence at all cost!

The carnage will continue until we address the brutality of our own culture of violence here in America!

America promotes a culture of violence and continues to condone the use of violence in response to difference.

Violent confrontations rise in the nation and around the world.



As we increase our violent respond to the terrorist threats around the world violence grows in our nation.
Violence begets violence!!!


The past several weeks have been littered with violence in America.
We need to pay closer attention to the escalation of violence in this society. If you have been following this blog , you can see the increase in violent activity within this culture. There is a growing presence of violent activity that has become the norm in American culture.
We must see the urgency in addressing the growing violence in this society.


This young African American teen was shot sixteen times by law enforcement offices in the city of Chicago. The second volley of shots came after he was down on the ground.
This kind of excessive force reflects the problem we have in American culture. Violence is seen as the norm for the inner city. Young Men and women of color are being murdered every day in this nation!!!

Planned parenthood office is terrorized by this man who shot nine people and killed three.
The man accused of killing three people at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs made his first court appearance Monday, wearing a padded vest and standing with his eyes closed for parts of the hearing.
A judge advised Robert Lewis Dear, 57, that he's being held on suspicion of first-degree murder, a charge that could carry a minimum penalty of life in prison or a maximum penalty of death if he's convicted. The formal filing of charges in the case, and the next hearing for Dear, is set for December 9.
 

We continue to act as if these are inconsistent and sporadic incidents when it is clear that there is a pattern in the rise of violence in America. The peacemakers must act with urgency to address these concerns.


F.B.I. Treating San Bernardino Attack as Terrorism Case


As we ignore the violence in this nation more violence is evolving in our culture. The recent San Bernadino Shooting of fourteen people has begun to show the country that we must address the growth of violence in our nation and communities.
We must act to create a peaceful movement in this country before violence tears this nation apart.



We must learn how to be a non violent global community to address the growing use of violence in this nation and around the world.

If we are to respond as a Christian Nation we must stop using violence to answer every problem and concern that confronts us as a nation.




 The victims will continue to increase until we make peace a priority.!!

The violence continues to soar as America is dying slowly from within. The absence of moral courage to address the issue of violence is america is tearing this country apart. Day after day we see tragedy and suffering yet are helpless to respond. We need to find our collective conscious and address this issue of violence before the country falls apart.

It will keep on  until we say no more!!!






The reality of this kind of violence is becoming the norm in Western Culture!!!

First the Charleston nine then the Chattanooga four. Remember the issue of violence escalating as the nation turns an deaf ear to gun control and peace making. We cannot continue to have business as usual in this nation until we address the issue of violence on a real time agenda in this nation and around the world. Religious communities must take the lead in this historic turning point in civilization.

Charleston nine murdered

and the killer.

and their killer.

This pattern of violence is an civilization ending event crisis. We need to address this concern Now.
For religious community not to address violence as an apocalyptic patterned issue that rejects and denies the  the very presence and essence of creation is tantamount to denying the very essence of the power and intelligence of God as creator. The destruction of the planet will follow the escalation of violence in the Global community. We cannot claim civilized society and use this kind of behavior to resolve conflicts.
