Your Prayer: what to pray about when you pray

First of all say the Lord's prayer and the Hail Mary.

Then in your own prayer ask the Holy Spirit to sanctify you and the whole world.   You also should include glorification to the Lord as the master and creator. Then pray for the world and ask for God to heal all people from sin and everything that can be helped.  Be reverent and humble to God.

Ask the Lord to forgive you and the world.  Say "please God renew us and bless us.  Please command your angels to strengthen all people."

Ask the Lord to make the world do his will.

The last thing is ask the Lord to take good action on your prayer.

Sweetened beverages: An obesity epidemic

The biggest cause of obesity is sugar drinks like Pepsi, Coke and Gatorade.  These drinks have many grams of sugar and high fructose corn syrup.

This needs to change.  I'm going to write a letter to elected officials to consider a Beverage Sugar Limitation Act.  This would curtail sugar in drinks.  It would set standards on sugar amounts.

This has lead to a public health risk.

America's Energy Grid: We need to develop it more

 Why is energy so expensive in America?  One reason is because we are still developing our oil fields.  Another reason is because are refinery capacity can only refine foreign oil.  Therefore, we are still reliant on foreign oil.  We have so much oil we are exporting it to other nations instead of developing our refinery capacity to refine a lot more domestic oil.

We also need to develop renewable energy sources to fuel our cars, trucks and buses.  We have made some more progress on this.  Hydrogen is too dangerous and explosive.

Finally, we need to hold oil companies accountable to develop our refinery capacity.  We still need to fund domestic oil companies to develop our refineries to refine more domestic oil.  This might decrease fuel prices. Furthermore, we need to hold energy companies to develop fuel efficiency of oil.

Public Education Reform in America: Teaching Methods?

In America, we spend billions of dollars on education in America and it seems that we still have failing schools and failing students.

What we need to do is go back to teaching methods that were successful in the old days.  We also need to change our public school curriculum to what worked in the past.  In other words, we need to go back to the basics of education with today's technology of course.  This is reading, writing and arithmetic.  Wait until high school to teach computers.

Yes.  Right now, we have a curriculum that demands students to be like the Japanese and not America.  Can America be like Japan?  In some ways economically yes.
