February 3, 2023 Edition
Friends, fans, and followers, good morning, and welcome to the February 3, 2023 edition of Nooz Now. This is Nooz Buffet dot com, and I’m your host, Francis Joseph LaManna.
Let’s get it!
🎭 Do you guys remember that television show hosted by Dennis Farina? It was called Unsolved Mysteries. Unsolved Mysteries, in a sense, has resurrected to become one of my go-to favorites on YouTube, and Episode 3 from Season 3 (33) was a very interesting episode containing two stories of particular interest to me.
“The only way you can beat the devil is by having a group of people; white people, black people, and people from all ethnic backgrounds coming together and loving one another.”
-Reggie White
I began with this quote because it’s not only true and something I’ve seen to be true myself, but it comes to us from an amazing guy in a very unique situation. This was the last story from Episode 3 Season 3, and it was about a retired defensive lineman from the Philadelphia Eagles, Reggie White. After retiring from the NFL, Reggie White opened a church in Knoxville Tennessee that was the first of its kind. White was an ordained minister, and his church brought together people from the community of all colors, which was unheard of. What they all had in common was they were poor.
This was amazing in itself because if you remember, we were just saying in a post on here that the secret is for humans to unite in culture and for a common purpose. Poverty was the unifying culture, and serving the Lord was their purpose. So White, a man coming from the NFL with the awareness of what it takes for a diverse group of people to be successful, implemented the secret formula into his church.
It was a success and the community benefited greatly from it. Eventually, the church was targeted and someone burned it down. Whoever it was also wrote derogatory words with racial overtones, so inevitably, it was seen as a hate crime against black people. Whenever you have something like this church, real, sincere and genuine in its mission, and dedicated to unifying a diverse group of people, it tends to bring the worst out in people who support racially driven narratives designed to divide.
Without a doubt, it was a test for White, and although he did recognize the racial aspect of the crime, he did not take the crime personally or make it solely about the black people in his church. He was a man of his word and he stayed true to his mission. He emphasized the real issue, and what it would take to conquer, and that’s what takes us full-circle back to our beginning quote.
The lesson here can and should be embraced by American’s as it highlights the reason for why this country was formed. One Nation; a diverse population with people from all over the world uniting culturally as Americans. If we can finally unite as Americans, we can then work on a single purpose.
The other episode I wanted to mention was actually the first one. For those who are into the story about the UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947, this episode gives us unique perspective from the man who owned the land where the crash occurred. He said the debris from the crash sat on his property for three days, while he examined it. This case, which became so popular amongst UFO hunters, was and has been known as such because of the extent to which the government went to cover it all up, but the government only got involved because the farm owner called them. Can you imagine? One of the biggest cover-ups in the history of our country by our government, and it was a normal citizen who opened the door for them to do it. Our government was unaware the crash even occurred. Well, he said if that ever happened again, he would not call local authorities.
🌔: Tonight’s Moon will be a waxing gibbous, 93% illuminated in the astrological sign Cancer. The full moon for this current moon cycle will be on the night of Sunday, February 5th in Leo
🏈NFL: This year’s Super Bowl is between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. The game will he held on Sunday, February 12 at 6:30 PM at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The Chiefs are favored by 1.5 points.
In closing, I would like to share a bit a of wisdom. If you’re around people that seem to push your panic buttons and make you feel rushed, think about finding new people to hang out with. Everything starts with you, and I don’t know about you personally, but I feel like any situation I’m rushed into results in unfavorable outcomes. 2023 is shaping up to be a year of total body improvement; physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. Be patient, and take your time.
Have a great day and a wonderful weekend!
