Manifesto for a Blog
A manifesto is a public declaration of principles, policies, or intentions, especially of a political nature. A manifest, from which the word manifesto comes, is (as a noun) a cargo list for a ship, or a list of cargo and passengers for an airplane. So this is both the purpose FOR the blog, and the "baggage" that comes with me in the blog.
I hereby resolve to post only things that God would be well pleased to read. This means, at the very least:
to post only things which pass the four-way test developed in 1932 by the man who gave the land to a camp I love:
Of the things we think, say or do:
1. Is it the TRUTH?
2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
to post about things that bring me joy. Ito not whine in my postings, nor apologize for not posting.
to have fun, to enjoy, to delight in God's creation (and the excellent works of many of his people, too!)
