Did We Say Unity Through Diversity?!

YES WE DID!  Unity through diversity is the founding principal of the Knights of Creativity, Spirit and Ale.  It's also the founding principal of the UNITED States of America.  

What is happening to this great nation of ours???!!!  I know...the Silent Majority has lost it's tongue (we haven't posted in almost 3 years!)...while the crazy book ends of society continue to squeeze rational thought out of the library!

We are a nation of immigrants...worthless minions...who gathered on these shores to build a nation on ideals...not on wealth or family privileges...and certainly not on exclusion.  Sure, we've screwed up...like abusing the true Native Americans...bringing Africans as slaves...persecuting the next wave of immigrants like the Irish, the Poles, the....BUT...through our Diversity we have woven a strong and vibrant society that is the envy of the world.  Well, it use to be before Trump.  Speaking of Trump...what the hell happened to Reagan's Republican Party???!!! 

We went from Tear Down That Wall to Build That Wall in only three generations.  Of course when the Reagan Republicans held the White House they embraced the friendship of the opposing party and actually listened to input from Democrats, like Tip O'Neill. 

Tip: "Well Ronnie, let's make a deal."  Ronald:  "Well Tip, only if we do it over a couple of beers my friend!"  Trump's White House is like walking into Hitler's Bunker with the Russians outside the door in 1945!  Look at the history of Walls:  

The Great Wall of China, which will still to this day dwarf Trump's Wall, and was built to keep out the Mongols.  DIDN'T WORK!

Hadrian's Wall, built by the Romans in Northern England to keep out the Celts.  DIDN'T WORK!

The Berlin Wall, built by the Communist to actually keep people in.  DIDN'T WORK!

TRUMP'S WALL:  Tired of the history lesson, if you still know how to read...WON'T WORK!

No, what is needed now more than ever is the courage to speak up and tell the truth.  The courage to call things as they really are.  Like Terrorism for example.  The Middle East is all about oil and money, held hostage by the greedy and self-righteous fundamentally religious on both sides.  While true terrorism continues to happen in our Continent with mass shootings, gang wars, etc.

What is the difference between a Jihadi and a Mexican Gangster?  The Jihadi blows himself up along with you...the Gangster kills you, cuts you up and cooks you on the stove.  

A wall is not the answer.  Imagine if we diverted our military efforts to assist the Mexicans in bringing their country back to sanity, while at the same time healing our own wounds.  Use money for a wall to educate and advance a unified American Continent...now that's strength.  Are we brave enough...and smart enough for this challenge?  I am!

Cheers!

Creating a New Future

Our last post on our old site www.knightsmsa.blogspot.com announced that the Founding Father's were taking a much needed summer sabbatical away from the blogging world and use the down time to brainstorm a new approach for our Merry Band of Knights and Ladies.

First, we decided that the use of the word Moleskine was limiting our potential for expansion. Of course, the Founding Fathers will continue to journal, doodle and otherwise express themselves on that fine written platform; however, the real Spirit of the Knights is one of Creation! Creation is incorporated into our ideals: "We are free to create without judgement"

Therefore, we have changed our name to the Knights of Creation Spirit and Ale. We still embody the ideals of Thinking, Drinking and Being Merry...but now we are challenging ourselves, as well as others, to embrace Creating through the whole process.

Create or Die. The challenge is to choose wisely...to choose to Create...which many times can be a deadly enterprise. By embracing the true freedom of our ideals, we must also embrace the freedom from fear. Fear often accompanies one who is about to create, which often keeps them from pursuing the creation and their dreams. So, FEAR NOT!!!

Speaking of Freedom from Fear...when we took our break in May there was still Hope in the world...now...we are surrendering our very foundation to the fear mongers of this world, especially in American Politics.

It's time for the Knights and their voice of reason to rise up and challenge the mindless minions that would bring our country one step closer to the closed, fearful, fundamental abyss that more closely resembles Iran than America. But that's the subject of another blog.

Remember...we become stronger as individuals and a collective when we embrace the ideal of Unity through Diversity.

Finally, it takes more than three outstanding gents, ie, the Founding Fathers, to make this dream possible. We are asking...neigh...begging for others to contribute to our cause by posting on this blog, friending us on Facebook and spreading the KCSA Gospel.

We have decided to utilize Facebook to gain more members and to provide a forum for pictures, videos, works of art, etc. to be displayed by our members. So, Like Us and join us on Facebook and send it to your friends too! The More...The Merrier!

Cheers!
