Freedom: The Case For Open Borders By Josh Sheldon - A Final Look...

 

Joss Sheldon is a passionate individual, a world-wide traveler who writes books based upon his own personal passion for issues he sees across the world. He wants a better world... He wants a world where each of us has personal freedom. A personal freedom that is not bogged down by those who live among us, who, for whatever reason, has chosen to purposely affect others in some negative manner. Purely because they want to. Or, worse, because they have been trained to, either by parents, teachers, religious leaders, or, politicians. Specifically the leaders of each country.

When Joss Sheldon sees or feels the distress, the pressure being put on others who have no control over their lives, he wants to fight back, on their behalf. Invariably this results in a new book. There are now eight books written, all on a similar theme... Why are there people who choose to disrupt the lives of others, in order for them to be totally happy? His basic instinct is to assume that there are ways to stop these unwanted intrusions. His latest book takes on the highly complex issue of Freedom. Then, honing in on a present, now headline issue, which has been either ignored, or purposely delayed so that it can be used purely for political reasons.

His approach for this book was to use a basic scientific approach of identifying the problem, researching the issue, verifying the pros and cons of his proposed solution, and making a recommendation. Sheldon then presents his "Case For Open Borders" to his readers across the world.

At the end of the book, I had accepted his hypothesis. However, I also immediately wondered if it was merely a pipedream. Then as I talked to my best friend about the book's concept, I threw out my own hypothesis... 

For hundred of years, we've heard people write or talk about The Second Coming... After hearing about those times when somebody made a formal claim, a specific date, and that date happened and yet Christ never came, I've pondered this for many years. And, after reading this book, my hypothesis is that, when each country has opened their borders to all people, regardless of race, religion or any other difference, then, we would have ALL accepted the Words of Christ to love our neighbor... and He would come to reign over Earth once again...

I watch The Last Word every time it is on, recording the full hour and watching it later. The above video popped up when I was looking for the song Let There Be Peace on Earth... Listen to the part where the Senator emphasizes the beating of a Black man and then his attackers were all set free...

The pounding point of his pen reminded me of a Good Friday gathering where the same concept was used to pound out the impact of the nails being hammered into the feet and arms of Jesus Christ.

The whole church was silent as the hammer pounded, each knowing that it was exactly how many hits it took to nail Jesus to the Cross... The effect now brings the same chilling awareness. The same sense of loss... The same realization that another Black Man had been chosen, beaten by four white police officers... And freed by a white jury... Once this is heard, once you realize just how cruel people can be to other people, I know that Open Borders will never happen in my lifetime... Will it happen in Yours? I believe God is watching America right now. I believe that those who have incited hate and division on false premises, lies, deceit and violence will be stopped! 

Do you hear the pounding of a pen by a democratic senator who witnessed that violence, that prejudice, that hatred, yet know that time has marched on, and very little has changed. And, in some ways, gotten worse. If you hear or see what has happened, and yet believe that Open Borders should be possible, then I encourage you to read Freedom: The Case for Open Borders. And, if you listen very hard, you'll begin to hear the birds chirping, the bees buzzing, smell the green grass of spring, see the beauty of God's World created for us and know that surely God Himself, the great I AM, wants to have America become a nation, perhaps one of the first nations, who will open borders in a structured, professional and controlled manner which shows that we Americans all truly love our neighbors as God asks us... And that, we will work in concert with all other democracies to begin to support and welcome all those who wish to come to America, without concern about being turned away...

This book begs you to reset any hesitations you have about the future and look toward an America that is truly a land of the Free... Even as recognizing that America is now free only to some...

ALL OVER THE WORLD, PEOPLE ARE CRYING OUT TO BE FREE! I believe this book is an excellent treatise of just how much people desire--and--deserve to live free. All over the world!
