MY ACCOUNTABILITY CREDO   I am accountable...           ...to my spouse for love, honor, loyalty and an equal share in all I do or own now and always.   I am accountable ...           ...to my children for love, care, discipline and teaching, especially as regards their own accountability.   I am accountable...           ...to my parents for love, honor, obedience in my youth and care in their advanced age.   I am accountable...           ...to my country for loyalty, obedience to law, selfdiscipline and, when called upon or elected to public office, for unselfish service.   I am accountable...           ...to my employer or those I serve in business or government for work performed to the best of my ability and for seeing that time and resources are used efficiently and effectively and are not wasted or misused.      I am accountable...           ... to all people...                   * for treatment in the same manner in which I would expect and want to be treated.                   * for fairness and honesty in all my actions.                   * for self control over my ambitions for achieve­ment and wealth and over my actions in satisfac­tion of bodily desires.                   * for conducting myself with a gentle temper of mind, a positive, collaborative attitude, giving fair treatment and judgement and exercising selfcontrol necessary to protect their rights while exercising my own.                   * for protecting the environment from contamination and from needsless waste or detruction of natural resources and habitat.                   * for reflecting humility, fairness, and obedience to authority.                   * for providing a good example to others who observe my actions and activities at work and in my personal life.      I am accountable...           ...to myself                   * for protecting my mind from illness by maintaining a positive, constructive attitude and avoiding selfish or evil thoughts or acts.                   * for protecting my body from illness, maintaining it in good physical condition and avoiding harmful substances or promiscuous sexual activities.                   * for exercising the foresight necessary to avoid situations or conditions which might place undue temptation upon me to deviate from the goals of this credo.                   * for being ashamed when I have not lived up to the expectations of this credo, the faith demonstrated in me by others and my own ethical and moral goals.     I am accountable to God...                                              ...for all of the above.       July 29, 1989                                                James P.

	Psalm 139 (New Century Version) God Knows Everything For the director of music. A psalm of David.  1 Lord, you have examined me        and know all about me.  2 You know when I sit down and when I get up.        You know my thoughts before I think them.  3 You know where I go and where I lie down.        You know everything I do.  4 Lord, even before I say a word,        you already know it.  5 You are all around me—in front and in back—        and have put your hand on me.  6 Your knowledge is amazing to me;        it is more than I can understand.  7 Where can I go to get away from your Spirit?        Where can I run from you?  8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there.        If I lie down in the grave, you are there.  9 If I rise with the sun in the east        and settle in the west beyond the sea,  10 even there you would guide me.        With your right hand you would hold me.  11 I could say, "The darkness will hide me.        Let the light around me turn into night."  12 But even the darkness is not dark to you.        The night is as light as the day;        darkness and light are the same to you.  13 You made my whole being;        you formed me in my mother's body.  14 I praise you because you made me in an amazing and wonderful way.        What you have done is wonderful.        I know this very well.  15 You saw my bones being formed        as I took shape in my mother's body.     When I was put together there,  16 you saw my body as it was formed.     All the days planned for me        were written in your book        before I was one day old.  17 God, your thoughts are precious to me.        They are so many!  18 If I could count them,        they would be more than all the grains of sand.     When I wake up,        I am still with you.  19 God, I wish you would kill the wicked!        Get away from me, you murderers!  20 They say evil things about you.        Your enemies use your name thoughtlessly.  21 Lord, I hate those who hate you;        I hate those who rise up against you.  22 I feel only hate for them;        they are my enemies.  23 God, examine me and know my heart;        test me and know my anxious thoughts.  24 See if there is any bad thing in me.        Lead me on the road to everlasting life.

Whenever you find you are on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect --- Mark Twain

We have never observed a great civilization with a population as old as the United States will have in the twenty-first century; we have never observed a great civilization that is as secular as we are apparently going to become; and we have had only half a century of experience with advanced welfare states...Charles Murray
