ANOTHER VIEW: Dinosaurs are not extinct; they only take new form 

By Ashley Herndon  |  Apparently to a majority of the “GoneOldParty,’” it is obviously more important that Justice Clarence Thomas and five others of the Supreme Court majority vote ideologically rather than ethically.

ANOTHER VIEW: Conflagration in Israel bemoans a different approach

By Ashley Herndon  |  Today’s violence in Israel bemoans a different approach, regardless of our allegiances and beliefs.  Imagine the surprise that hit the historical tribal leader Moses when he came down from a mountain and saw his people shaping and worshiping a Golden Calf, and on an altar built by his brother, Aaron.  That would knock your socks off.  Wow…ya’ can’t eat gold.

FOCUS: We must resist, reclaim, rebuild and be counted

By Ashley Herndon  |  We must counter corruption, inequality, false faiths and thievery.  Fear is not a viable mechanism.  Corruption is unsustainable as the wolf chases its tail.  The snake will devour itself, so we must avoid the pitfalls of bogus populism.  True populism is people power, not hateful corporate demagoguery.
