Image for BCOF members to put in their blogs "Prompt: “In this note that he kept in his personal archives, he wrote a message that still resonates today. ‘Nothing more ugly in the whole wide world than INTOLERANCE (between) Black, white, red, yellow, boy or girl. INTOLERANCE.’” Prince

What are your thoughts?"

I have to agree with Prince. There is nothing worse than intolerance in any form. Jesus taught us that we are to love each other. treating each other with intolerance is not love. I can tell you that intolerance is always going to exist. It isn't just a racial issue as it is being made out to be. If you want to see intolerance practiced against a group of people who come from all races then get involved in the lives of people with disabling diseases such as Parkinson's Disease or mental illness. Another group treated with a lot of intolerance is homosexuals. There are hundreds of minorities. Veterans are another group that is often treated with intolerance and misunderstanding, particularly combat veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The list goes on exponentially. It isn't just a Black and White issue, although that gets the most ink.

Blog City image small "Prompt: “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

What do you think the author means to say here, and how do you relate to fear yourself?"

I think the author means just what he says. Fear paralyzes us. It numbs the brain so that we often do not even realize that we are dealing with fear. We think it is anger or some other emotion. We do not realize that anger is a secondary emotion. Anger comes as a result of fear usually and is programmed into us so that anger creates the bodily responses needed for a response to fear. When we are scared we either fight back or we escape. It is instinctive. fear usually causes the anger. If we deal with the fear, the anger leaves.
