ACTS 2:113 (ThE MEssagE)1When the Feast o Pentecost came, they were

all together in one place. 2Without warning

there was a sound like a strong wind, gale orce

no one could tell where it came rom. It

flled the whole building. 3 Then, like a wildfre,the Holy Spirit spread through their ranks, 4 and

they started speaking in a number o dierent

languages as the Spirit prompted them. 5 There

were many Jews staying in Jerusalem just then,

devout pilgrims rom all over the world. 6When

they heard the sound, they came on the run.Then when they heard, one ater another, their

own mother tongues being spoken, they were

thunderstruck. 7 They couldnt for the life of

them fgure out what was going on, and kept

saying, Arent these all Galileans? 8 How come

were hearing them talk in our various mother

tongues? 9 Parthians, Medes, and Elamites;

Visitors rom Mesopotamia, Judea, and

Cappadocia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt

and the parts o Libya belonging to Cyrene;11 both Jews and proselytes; Even Cretans and

Arabs! Theyre speaking our languages,

describing Gods mighty works! 12 Their headswere spinning; they couldnt make head or tail

o any o it. They talked back and orth,

confused: Whats going on here? 13 Others

joked, Theyre drunk on cheap wine.

PSALM 73:117 (ThE MEssagE)1 No doubt about it! God is good - good to

good people, good to the good-hearted. 2 But I

nearly missed it, missed seeing his goodness.3 I was looking the other way, looking up to the

people 4At the top, envying the wicked who haveit made, 5Who have nothing to worry about, not

a care in the whole wide world. 6 Pretentious

with arrogance, they wear the latest ashions in

violence, 7 Pampered and overed, decked out in

silk bows o silliness. 8 They jeer, using words to

kill; they bully their way with words.9

Theyreull o hot air, loudmouths disturbing the peace.10 People actually listen to them - can you believe

it? Like thirsty puppies, they lap up their words.11Whats going on here? Is God out to lunch?

Nobodys tending the store. 12 The wicked get by

with everything; they have it made, piling up

riches 13 Ive been stupid to play by the rules;

what has it gotten me? 14A long run o bad luck,

thats what a slap in the face every time I walk

out the door. 15 If Id have given in and talked

like this, I would have betrayed your dear

children. 16 Still, when I tried to fgure it out, all

I got was a splitting headache 17 Until Ientered the sanctuary o God. Then I saw the

whole picture.

For AFriCAn-AmeriCAnS,Folly oF ThiS WAr hiTS home

By DerriCk Z. JACkSon, GlobeColumniST

pAsTOrs pAGe

May 9, 2007 MILITARY SOCIOLOGIST

David R. Segal, was asked Monday, over the

telephone, what he hears in his surveys o sol-

diers. He quoted an Arican-American veteran

of the Iraq invasion and occupation: This is not

a black peoples war. This is not a poor peoples

war. This is an oilmans war.

Gregory Black, a

retired Navy diver wholast year started the

Web site BlackMilitary-

World.com, said that

quote sums up what he,

too, hears rom Arican-

American veterans othe Iraq war.

African-Americans

detest this war, Black

said yesterday in a

phone interview. Ev-

erybody kind o knows

the truth behind this

war. Its a cash cow for

the military deense

industry, when you

look at the money these contractors are mak-

ing. Arican-Americans saw this at the beginning

o the war and now the rest o the country has

gured it out. Its not beneting us in the least.

Asked about the reference to an oilmans war,

Black said, Its basically about oil, basically about

money. Its an economic war. He said veterans

are saying they are tired and burned out. Guys

are saying were halfway around the world ght-

ing people o color under the guise o democracy

and we cant see how its beneted anyone,

Black said. Its hard

to fght halway aroundthe world for peoples

freedom when youre

not sure you have it at

home.

This war, launched

under alse pretenses,now has so little merit

that the enrollment o

Arican-Americans in

the military may be at

its lowest point since the

creation o the all-vol-

unteer military in 1973.

In 2000, 23.5 percent of

Army recruits were Ari-

can-American. By 2005,

the percentage dropped to 13.9 percent. National

Public Radio this week quoted a Pentagon statistic

that said that Arican-American propensity to join

the military had dropped to 9 percent.


10/36

Order Of WOrship


pAsTOrs pAGe

Technically, 13.9 percent is about the

proportion o Arican-Americans in the general

population. But the militarys meritocracy has

long been a disproportionate option or young

Arican-Americans because o a disproportionate

lack o career opportunities and decent public

schools to prepare them or college.The drop in Arican-American enrollment

in the military may be as powerul a collective

political statement about Iraq as when

Muhammad Ali reused to be drated during

the Vietnam War. Before the 2003 invasion

o Iraq, major polls showed that Arican-American support or the invasion was as low

as 19 percent, according to the Joint Center

or Political and Economic Studies, while white

support ran between 58 percent and 73 percent

in major polls.

Even today Arican-Americans by ar lead the

way in calling the war a mistake. According to

Gallup, 85 percent of African Americans say it

was a mistake, compared to 53 percent of white

Americans. According to Pew, a plurality o

white Americans, 49 percent, still say it was the

right decision to invade Iraq, compared to 21

percent o Arican-Americans.African-Americans are always more sensitive

to anything that smacks o neocolonialism,

which this war did smack of, said Joint Center

political analyst David Bositis.

Segal and Black said that sensitivity has

nothing to do with patriotism. What weregetting is not an opposition to war, but

considerable opposition to this war, said Segal,

director of the University of Marylands Center

or Research on Military Organization. He

has done soldier attitude surveys or the Army.

What were seeing is a growing resentment

that it eels to them that the military has gone to

war, but not the nation. The military has goneto war, the nation has gone to Wal-Mart.

Black said that he still believes without

a shadow of a doubt that the military still

provides one o the best opportunities or

Arican-Americans to advance in a nation where

civilian opportunities remain checkered. But hesaid the military may underestimate how young

people are absorbing the horrifc images in

Iraqs chaos. Pentagon ofcials largely attribute

the drop in Arican-American interest in the

armed forces to inuencers, parents, coaches,

ministers, and school counselors who urge

youth not to enlist.

I think some of that is true, Black said.

But I taught ROTC in high school, and the

kids themselves are a lot smarter about this stu.

They see the news and they cant justify going

into a ght for something they have no faith in.

TO dO JUsTiCe

Over the past thirty years, the war on drugshas been ought by simply attempting to

use incarceration as a deterrent. Public

policy has leaned toward implementing increasingly

harsher penalties or non-violent drug related

crimes. This approach has proved to be impotent.

In Illinois, in particular, each year, the percent-

ages and individuals incarcerated or drug-relatedcrimes have constantly risen. I dont have to tell

you that the communities disproportionately

aected are black and brown communities. Ac-

cording to the study released by the U.S. Census

in 2005, African Americans comprise 15% of the

Illinois population, while Hispanics comprise 14%.

However, according to the same census, Arican

Americans make up 61% of the prison population,

while Hispanics make up 11%. As the numbers

have increased, seemingly exponentially, the state

of Illinois commitment to keep pace with the need

has not been met. In short, too many non-violent

oenders are being sent to prison or non-violent

drug related oenses without the beneft o receiv-

ing any treatment while in prison. This inaction

leads to ever increasing recidivism rates as those

who are released return to prison on similar charges.

A policy o incarceration or non-violent drug o-

enses has proven to be in eectual. What is needed,

is alternative orms o sentencing and treatmentwhich help the non-violent drug related oender to

get assistance.

The Center or Health and Justice at Treatment

Alternatives for Safe Communities, Inc. (TASC),

recently released a detailed report promoting a pub-

lic policy of No Entry. No Entrys desired effect

is that the cycle o drugs and crime ceases beore aperson is sentenced to prison. What No Entrydoes

is seeks to treat the illness rather than criminalizethe illness.

Moreover, treatment o the illness is less ex-

pensive or Illinois taxpayers. The annual cost or

incarceration per 10,000 individuals in the State of

Illinois is $226 million. The annual average cost for

probation, community based treatment, and case

management is $59.3 million. This yields a savingsof $166.7 million. Fiscally, No Entrymakes sense,

or the sake o our communities, and the people

who live in them.

However, the truth must be told. There are many

people and corporations who will not support this

initiative because they proft o the prison industry.

They will not want to see their profts reduced in

order to help those who need help.

Illinois HB 1830 and SB 1442 are proposed

bills currently in the state legislature, which call or

$10,000,000 to be initially appropriated in order

to expand treatment and support services or drug-

involved offenders in FY 08. Passage of these bills

would support a No Entry policy alternative, which

will begin the road o fnding alternative modes o

treatment and sentencing, as well as save the state

approximately $39,000,000 in FY 08.

You should have received a letter as you entered

the Sanctuary. I you want to see people aided and

not criminalized or their illness, I urge you to signthis letter and return it to an usher.

THE RESULTS OF A REDEEMED LIFE

I we are araid to use our time, abilities or energies on something worthwhile,

there may well come a time when we want to use them and we cant. This no-

tion reminded me o a story told to me by a riend who owned a small sailboat

that had been in their garage back home when he was younger.

It was a three-seater, painted white with blue trim. His ather built it, and or sometime, they used it every summer. But there was a time when it had not been in

the water or about three years, and they took it out in the yard. You could see

daylight through the cracks in the bottom where the wood had dried.

They stued the cracks with oakum, and put water in it or several days beore

the wood swelled and it would hold water as it should. Then, once again, more

or less watertight, it was ready or the lake.I that boat would have been let in the garage a ew more days, it would only

have gotten worse. Dry rot might have set in. A boat is not made to exist perma-

nently in a garage. It is built or the water. It is meant to be used. And i it is not

used, it will deteriorate.

Isnt life similar to that? Life is given to be lived and used. It is not meant to be

stored on a closet shelf or packed away in an attic. Theres an old prayer thatsays, Lord, let me wear out, and not rust out.

Lie is a matter o using opportunities. I we hesitate, it may be too late. I we

are araid to use our time, abilities or energies on something worthwhile, there

may well come a time when we will want to use them, and we cant.

Christ said that whoever would save his lie will lose it, and whoever loses his lie

for my sake, will nd it. A boat in the garage may be safe, but thats not whatboats are or.
