Hello
from Florida's Death Row.
My name is Faunce
Pearce. I am 43 years old.I'm a Father and a Grandfather. I enjoy
reading, I like to read literature that teaches me something. I love
children, I believe they are our most precious resource. It is for that
very reason that my heart grieves at the direction humanity is heading.
I just can't see why any child should ever be hungry or lack the
opportunity to be educated. The ache of my soul goes even further when
I hear of whole nations are living in sub human condition; where anyone
is seen as less valuable than another. I am struggling to understand
how anyone can look at another person and see not a fellow human ,but
just the color of their skin, or what religious or political views that
person may have, or determine that persons worth by their financial
status. I could be wrong, and please feel free to correct me, but I
believe that being human is a right we all recieve at birth and retain
til death. And I also believe that by that birthright we are all
entitled to live our lives free of suppression. I am a Wiccan and our
golden rule is "And it harm none, do what you will." Right now, here in
America, we are battling over certain freedoms. There are some
religious groups who are trying to establish one religious view as
being the only right way for everyone in the country. They are using
the mention of God as proof that our forefathers intended that our
nation be ruled by one religious view. Well once again here is a group
who want to take whatever parts of a doctrine that might support their
plight and just discard the rest. Now I will be the first to admit that
the great people that started this nation did place their faith in God,
and that they did believe that the laws of the Bible were the right
laws to live by, but at the same time I know that they were fighting
for freedom from a suppressive government who told them how they should
worship. They knew this to be wrong. And I truly believe that if they
wanted this nation to be ruled by any one religious view they would not
have clearly stated there would be a seperation between church and
state. I just can't help but believe that even though they held strong
Christian beliefs what they held even stronger was the belief that
everyone should be free to follow any religious belief they found to be
true.
Well there I go
letting my thoughts roam freely. Anyway back to telling you who I am. I
enjoy nature, growing things, all types of animals. I would say horses,
dogs and birds are my favourites. As I mentioned I am following a
spiritual path that embraces the Wicca way as the true way. I am trying
to grow in my spiritual beliefs but it is hard here because there is
not much help for someone who has chosen a spiritual path off the
mainstream. But I don't let that stop me. I have a penpal that
understands that even tho she doesn't share my beliefs I still have a
right to pursue them, so she sends me literature on Wicca from time to
time. I do miss my children and long for the day I will meet my
Grandchildren, I miss my family and am often troubled by the pain they
suffer because I am here.
