"ONE OF THE OLDEST IF NOT ALREADY THE OLDEST FAN CLUB ORGANIZATION FOR BATTLESTAR GALACTICA"
Battlestar Galactica Fanclub
"LEADING THE BSG UNIVERSE KEEPING THE FAITH ALIVE"
So Say We All!
Everyone, a few thoughts I wanted to share with you all about the importance of community & respect for one another.
In my view, this organization exemplifies the best that is brought out in people.
We have members that span the globe, from all different walks of life & cultures...but come together in common cause because of not only a passion for Battlestar Galactica but also for the sense of THE community.
If you look at our world from space, you don't see the lines that are drawn on a map or a globe...it is one earth and one people who live on it.
You will sometimes hear me refer to everyone as my "Brothers & Sisters"...but isn't that a true phrase?
We are all brothers & sisters within the human race.
I have found that Science Fiction fans...perhaps even most especially Battlestar Galactica fans (because of the story's mythological foundations)...are truly the most tolerant and understanding of people.
I think though that the reason why sci-fi fans are the way they are is because of the fact that they have an open minded framework of thinking...they believe that there is something more than just us here on this small world...so in that respect they must be accepting.
Wouldn't you say being accepting of your own kind is prepatory to you accepting a being from another world?
I think I would.
The man from Boston must accept his brother from Berlin who must accept his brother from Benghazi who must accept his brother from Botswana....well, you get the general idea.
You know, there are plenty of "bad" people in the world who do "bad" things...that's an accepted fact, unfortuantely it happens all the time...but what gets lost in the shuffle of the news cycle is the fact that there are much more good people in this world than bad ones.
Overwhelmingly there is more good.
We come in many colors, we come speaking different languages, we come from different cultures, we have different political & religous beliefs...but that is the spice of life & everyone should be happy that not everyone looks, behaves or believes the same things...wouldn't things get just a little boring?
The point is that we have a lot to teach each other and all we have to to do is reach out to one another to do it!
The internet...people take it for granted....but what a marvel to know that when I finish this, people can instantly read it around the world from Anchorage to Atlanta to Athens to Ankara...
Just consider the United States....it's a vast melting pot of people from all over the world!
I think that almost every nationality in the world is represented in the U.S.
How many people are of say Irish heritage...Italian....Russian?
Or sometimes of various nationalities?
I'll give you an example, myself!
Despite my very Irish sounding name (which it is)...surprisingly my heritage really hasn't much Irish in it unless you go back a couple of hundred years...My ancestry consists of the aforementioned Irish, but also includes German, Native American, Spanish & Arab...wow, I'm like a walking United Nations!
The point, the BIG point I'm trying to make is that we are truly one world & one people and hopefully someday soon more & more people around the world wake up to that message...I think a lot are, we just need to wake up a few more!
Do good & do no harm to your fellow citizen of the world & listen here to the words of Edward James Olmos at the United Nations making a passionate case for all of us...the citizens of that bright & shining planet we call...Earth.
SO SAY WE ALL!
