Embrace the polar bear would be hemispherically accurate. The are no penguins in Greenland, but facts and reality have never mattered to Trump. (Yes, I double checked to make sure this was a real post from the White House.)

Trump says Greenland and Trump says Iceland Greenland, Iceland, Iceland, Greenland Let's call the whole thing off

Here are some links to some of my writings about Martin Luther King Jr. as we prepare to reflect on what his world house vision means for us in the fierce urgency of now.

Ten years ago, many of us were warning that we could not say we did know when it came to this, and now, here we are. It is devastating. oneworldhouse.net/2016/05/24/w...

I'm happy to share that I am joining the United Methodist Global Ministries Environmental Sustainability team as Environmental Ethics Consultant and will be leading a series of book discussions and webinars on environmental topics in the year ahead. creationcare.umcmission.org

Invade the Epstein files.

Boycott the FIFA World Cup and the Olympics. Better yet, remove them both from the United States.

What a different world it would be if we all worked together to leave the earth a better place than how it was when we were born into it - to add more value to the world during our lives than we extract from it.

Remove the FIFA World Cup and the Olympics from the United States.

OKC! From event organizers: “Please join this protest from noon to 2pm this Sunday, January 11th at Scissortail Park in Oklahoma City. Bring your signs and your voices to line the sidewalks and demand ICE out of our communities!”

If you are just lying low right now and not doing anything to resist fascism in the United States because you don’t think it will directly affect you, your silence and inaction are actually a fuel for fascism. Fascism feeds off of your “neutrality.”

Listening to some analysis by Naomi Klein, it became more clear to me that Trump and the oligarchs who support him are not only narcissistic and driven by greed. They are also nihilistic. They have given up on preserving and sustaining our world and are actively profiting from its annihilation.

We will always remember.

I wrote this in November of 2018. As we prepare for elections in November of 2026 here in the United States, the urgency of overcoming 21st Century Fascism is much greater today. oneworldhouse.net/2018/11/23/o...

The Nobel Peace Prize Committee needs to take a few years off to reflect on their mission and purpose so they don’t make such a tragic choice ever again.

Every country that cares about international law and peace should announce today that they are boycotting the Olympics and the World Cup.

A reminder that militarism is one of the many core characteristics of fascism.

Without the Supreme Court of the United States, Donald Trump would be in prison rather than the presidency.

Fascism is fueled by the greed of those who think they will benefit by the exclusion of others from meaningful political participation.

2026 is the year we must save our democracy. The electoral victory in November 2026 must be so decisive and overwhelming that it puts real and binding limits on the fascists in our government.

I don’t want to make too big a deal about this, but I have decided I will not be performing at the Kennedy Center for the Arts until they take Trump’s name off of it.

I am thankful that so many of you engaged with One World House this year. Most visits and views this year since 2019. I hope you find the writings there helpful as we work together for a better world. oneworldhouse.net

I don’t know who created this, but I 100% agree with this message!

Celebrating early Christmas with Mom and Dad. So glad Rae could come down to Lawton with me today to see her grandparents.

One of the most satisfying experiences of the past few months has been to see every horrible thing Ryan Walters did as Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction be systematically dismantled.

The over-literal reading of religious literature has been and continues to be a real and often deadly problem for humanity.

I choose to follow the way of Jesus in spite of the doctrines that were created by empire to control and manipulate Christians for imperial purposes.

No true follower of Jesus would ever call any other person or group of persons “garbage.” Nor would a true follower of Jesus ever support someone who calls human beings garbage.

When it comes to waste, one of the best things we can do is avoid one-use plastics completely. Pllastic recycling is a sham brought to us by the fossil fuel industry. www.sciencefriday.com/segments/pla...

We are beyond thankful that both of our daughters could be home with us for Thanksgiving today. A dear friend reminded me that Meister Eckhart once said if the only prayer you ever say is Thank You... It will be enough,. Thank You. Amen.

These days, “fossil fuels” seems to be as unspeakable as the other “f” word used to be, at least in official documents addressing climate change. fossilfreeumc.net/2025/11/23/f...

As I fall asleep at night, I feel a bit like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day - doomed to repeat what seems to be the exact same day of Trumpian fascist insanity over and over again every damn day.

The mutually reinforcing relationship among oligarchs, Christian nationalists, and white supremacists is the most dangerous phenomenon of our time.

I will continue to pray and work for the day when The United Methodist Church will join so many other faith institutions around the world and divest from fossil fuels. www.indcatholicnews.com/news/53733

This morning the fascist leader of the United States is calling for the death penalty for members of Congress who are encouraging members of the military to remember their oath to the Constitution of the United States of America and not obey illegal orders or orders that violate international law.

I will never get over the fact that 77,303,568 of you voted to elect one of the most evil persons in the history of humanity to be President of the United States of America. Shame on every single one of you.

My deepest fear right now about Trump is that he is such a narcissist and so completely bereft of morality and devoid of empathy that if he thinks he is going down, he might literally attempt to take the whole world down with him. Yes, I think he is that evil.

I am thankful to the Council of Bishops of the United Methodist Church for prioritizing creation justice. I am also thankful for the ongong impact of the Social Principles on the life and work of The United Methodist Church. www.umnews.org/en/news/bish...

I understand the desire to end the shutdown to end the suffering it is causing, but if we don’t stand up more strongly against fascism, the suffering to come will be almost unimaginable compared to the suffering of a shutdown and the very real suffering we have already seen.

It was so good to be with First Unitarian Church of Oklahoma City this morning. www.youtube.com/live/ch4lpNp...
