"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his
cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot." - Mark Twain

Earl,

What Mark Twain said describes what happens surrounding the life and the things that happens to a genuine prophet. The present of a prophet indicates a divine change of his people is immanent and that is what I’ve been saying all along am I right. .

The "Brave" walk alone!!!
No scorn, hatred, intimidation, detours them from doing the right thing.

I never have been a follower my entire life!!!

I have this intense love and respect for myself and that is why I tend to walk-alone and my friends and associates tend to have the same values that I have.

If you want to change the world, a nation, a community then you need to change yourself first.

Saint,

Since you mentioned world, nation and community this man would have to be a special man because changing the world and a nation can not be done by an ordinary man.

A good leader will always recognize a greater one than he is because there can only be one prophet in the midst of the people at one time and there is only one God.

The man to do this changing if the world, nation and community don’t have to change because saw he did not eat of the forbidden fruit of other people’s religion. Saint, you have eaten of the forbidden fruit of the Jewish people and their test am I right.

We are not Black Hebrew Israelites. Black Americans are a new race of people and we have nothing associated with another people and that’s why we don’t call ourselves African people like you use the Caucasian people name Israelites when you are not Caucasian.

I am tritely the way and the only way for Black Americans.
