QUOTE A DAY
"Words That Inspire, Provoke and Entertain"
Tuesday April 29, 2008
-----------------------------------------------------------
Greetings fellow quote lovers:
By now, most of our list has heard of the pastor, Jeremiah
Wright. His recent claim to fame is that he is the pastor
of the church that Barack Obama attends when he is in Chicago.
I watched the full interview of his with Bill Moyers
(featured video today). You will get a different view of him
if you read these quotations and view the video.
Corporate media have scourged him in a sense. Why? Well, read
on and make up your own mind.
Best,
JA

JA's Video Pick of The Week
Reverend Jeremiah Wright Full Interview With Moyers
Bill Moyers interviews the Reverend Jeremiah Wright in
his first broadcast interview with a journalist since he
became embroiled in a controversy for his remarks and
his relationship with Barack Obama. Wright, who retired
in early 2008 as pastor of Trinity United Church of
Christ in Chicago, where Senator Obama is a member, has
been at the center of controversy for comments he made
during sermons, which surfaced in the press in March.

*---- Quotes For The Week ----*
Where governments lie, God does not lie. Where governments
change, God does not change. But let me leave you with one
more thing. Governments fail. The government in this text
comprised of Caesar, Cornelius, Pontius Pilate - the Roman
government failed. The British government used to rule
from East to West. The British government had a Union
Jack. She colonized Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Jamaica,
Barbados, Trinidad and Hong Kong.
Her navies ruled the seven seas all the way down to the
tip of Argentina in the Falklands, but the British
government failed. The Russian government failed. The
Japanese government failed. The German government failed.
And the United States of America government, when it came
to treating her citizens of Indian descent fairly, she
failed. She put them on reservations. When it came to
treating her citizens of Japanese descent fairly, she
failed. She put them in internment prison camps. When
it came to treating citizens of African descent fairly,
America failed. She put them in chains.
--Reverend Jeremiah Wright

When you start confusing God and government, your
allegiances to government - a particular government
and not to God, that you're in serious trouble because
governments fail people.
--Reverend Jeremiah Wright
----------------------------------------------------------
In Genesis:2 it says God breathes into the nostrils of
what God had formed from the dust. God donated some
divinity to some dirt and we became living souls. That's
God breath you have in you, that's God's breath that
you just breathed. God is the giver of life. Let me
tell you what that means. That means we have no right
to take a life whether as a gang banger living the thug
life, or as a President lying about leading a nation
into war. We have no right to take a life!
--Reverend Jeremiah Wright

Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow,
A poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the
stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an
idiot, Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

*---- More Quotes for the Week ----*
[If] you look at Deuteronomy, it talks about blessings and
curses, how God doesn't bless everything. God does not
bless gang-bangers. God does not bless dope dealers. God
does not bless young thugs that hit old women upside the
head and snatch their purse. God does not bless that. God
does not bless the killing of babies. God does not bless
the killing of enemies. And when you look at blessings
and curses out of that Hebrew tradition from the book
of Deuteronomy, that's what the prophets were saying,
that God is not blessing this.

I saw [Christians] in Richmond, Virginia, who loved the
Lord, who professed faith in Jesus Christ and who
believed in segregation, saw nothing wrong with lynching,
saw nothing wrong with Negroes staying in their places.
I knew about hatred. I knew about prejudice. But I
didn't know Christians participated in that, in that
kind of thinking.
--Reverend Jeremiah Wright

The shame of being a descendant of Africa, was a shame
that had been pumped into the minds and hearts of
Africans from the 1600s on, even aided and abetted by
the benefit of those schools started by the missionaries,
who simply carried their culture with them into the
South and taught their cultures being synonymous with
Christianity.
--Reverend Jeremiah Wright
-----------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, most churches now are "status quo." And
so that, to the extent that they're not trying to feed
the poor, they're not trying to hook up jobs and people,
they're not concerned about the lowest, the least, the
left out.
--Reverend Jeremiah Wright
