I believe that Dr. King undoubtedly rooted all of his beliefs and actions in Christ Jesus. I think that we all can benefit by following the teachings and actions of his life, but just as it was in his own life, Jesus should be the center of our focus. Dr. King was an annointed vessel used by Christ and in light of Christ Jesus; Dr. King is worth listenig to all the way.

Was MLK even Christian?? It is debatable to say the least. He was an adulterer from the start...sure he let injustice rule his life!! Really, I question societies "heroes." Neither Malcolm X nor Dr. King did good. Unless, you follow hypocrites. Those are the facts.

I don't feel the black race truly appreciates being out of Africa and living everywhere else on our planet. I would hope things would be better if we listened to King, but there are so very many blacks anymore making it hard for their own kind. We have been in people businesses all our life and had no prejuduces, as we have dealt with all colors of people. We have witnessed that whenever there were problems with the black people, as opposed to other whites or other ethnic peoples, the blacks try use predjudice to their advantage, so they do not have to live up to responsibility of everyone else. Accusing that people "pick" on them intentionally. Any problem is everyone else's....not their's. So, of course after a while, you tend not to want to deal with them at all. Is it any wonder ? And they are surely making it harder on their responsible brothers (wherever they may be, as we had to look very hard to find some...sorry ) who would be responsible. With equal rights do gooders pushing them on us , threatening the government discrimination authorities, etc.does nothing for their own equality, as it would put a bad taste in anyone's mouth. It's becoming unequal for whites. For instance, why do white college students need higher grades for graduation, while blacks are allowed much lower grades. I don't believe that is at all fair, and I also believe we will see much more of unequality of whites, by trying to give blacks their "due"

It is not the "hearers" that make a difference.....but it is those that "hear" and "do" that are the true difference makers in this world.... with that said...yes the world would be better.... and it all starts with "YOU".... Let your light shine and others will follow....

.I think we have all listened to him. I know I am a better person than I was before he gave that famous speech.
I am white, after his speech, I stopped judging people by their appearances.
(So, stop judging me because I live in a Zoo.)

What a stupid holiday! They act like he was the only one ever involved with civil rights. They should rename king day to Civil Rights day and get rid of his name once and for all!

Martin Luther King Jr. was wonderful and had a lot of wonderful things to say that are still relevant today.
But you dishonor him by being prejudiced in his name. Malcolm X wasn't Satan's child. He was Allah's. And his commitment to Allah is what made him overcome racism and hatred, finally, near the end of his life.
"Never have I witnessed such sincere hospitality and overwhelming spirit of true brotherhood as is practiced by people of all colors and races here in this Ancient Holy Land, the home of Abraham, Muhammad and all the other Prophets of the Holy Scriptures. For the past week, I have been utterly speechless and spellbound by the graciousness I see displayed all around me by people of all colors.
"I have been blessed to visit the Holy City of Mecca. I have made my seven circuits around the Ka'ba, led by a young Mutawaf named Muhammad. I drank water from the well of the Zam Zam. I ran seven times back and forth between the hills of Mt. Al-Safa and Al-Marwah. I have prayed in the ancient city of Mina, and I have prayed on Mt. Arafat.
"There were tens of thousands of pilgrims, from all over the world. They were of all colors, from blue-eyed blonds to black-skinned Africans. But we were all participating in the same ritual, displaying a spirit of unity and brotherhood that my experiences in America had led me to believe never could exist between the white and non-white.
"America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem. Throughout my travels in the Muslim world, I have met, talked to, and even eaten with people who in America would have been considered 'white'--but the 'white' attitude was removed from their minds by the religion of Islam. I have never before seen sincere and true brotherhood practiced by all colors together, irrespective of their color."
I am not Muslim, but I can see beauty in his kind of faith, and in MLK's, and in no faith at all.
