<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>ANTHONY L. HALL</strong> takes aim at the global events of 2013 with a unique and refreshing perspective. Here are some of the topics he addresses:<br></span></span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><br>Public outrage over NSA spying<br></span></span></strong><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"><br>Theres no rationalizing their outrage over the NSA monitoring their promiscuous and indiscriminate footprints (online and via telephone). For, evidently, these nincompoops think its okay for Google, Amazon, Yahoo, Facebook, and others to spy on them to sell them stuff, but not okay for the NSA to do so to keep them safe.<br></span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><br>National praise NBA player Jason Collins got for coming out<br></span></span></strong><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"><br>His courageous stand is somewhat undermined by the fact that he waited to take it on his way out of the league.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Women whod rather pose nude than be caught without makeup</span></span></strong></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Who wouldve thought the liberation inherent in the sexual revolution and feminist movement would devolve into a self-abnegating farce where women themselves consider it a brave decision to go out in public without makeup?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Mediterranean Sea becoming a graveyard for Africans migrants</span></span></strong></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">I just hope the damning irony is not lost on any proud African that, 50 years after decolonization, hundreds of Africans (men, women, and children) are risking their lives, practically every day, to subjugate themselves to the paternal mercies of their former colonial masters in Europe.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Pope rebuking church for neglecting poor</span></span></strong></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Nothing indicates how far mainstream Christians have backslidden quite like the popes good old-fashioned religion being hailed as revolutionary.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">World paying tribute to Nelson Mandela</span></span></strong></p><p><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">As you see the most powerful people in the world falling all over themselves to sing Mandelas praises in the coming days, bear in mind that the people Mandela himself loved and admired most (outside of family members) are old comradesmost of whom you will never see on TV or social media.</span></p>
