The question of whether I am a veteran isn' t germane to the argument. It is a variation of the old adage that one shouldn't judge an Indian until one has walked a mile in his moccasins, or in this particular argument, spit-shined . boots that for some strange reason Mr.. Jones suggests that I view. It isn 't necessary for me to be a veteran in order to indict American policy. That's like stating that a music critic must be ·a former concert pianist. What attitude does Mr. · Jones prefer that I take toward the power structure?· Unquestioning obedience? Blind adulation? I'll let Charlie Chat-in-Chew and Butch NASCAR do that. How does ensuring ·that Haliburton makes a mint protect my freedol!J? Please explain. Mr. Jones states that he would fight for my freedom anywhere in the world, but the tone of his letter suggests a love for .freedom only in the abstract because the dissidence and protests that are the actual practice of a free people infuriates him.

We are at least 20 years , too late. The trouble began, as so · many of America's troubles have, with a proposal by Sen. Ted Kennedy, . D-Mass. specifically, his 1965 immigration reform bill. That bill, which duly passed, opened the floodgates for Asian and Latin . American immigration, and they have never closed since. · But at least the newcomers were · legal immigrants. Thereafter, the appeti'te of American employers for cheap labor, combined with ·the desire of impoverished Mexicans to provide it, simply overwhelmed the laws and the Mexican border. The Sinipson-Mazzoli Act of 1986 tried to stop the flood by granting amnesty to the 5 million or so illegal aliens already in the country, while tightening border controls. But the government, pressured by American business, simply failed to enforce the law. Today, it is estimated that there are at Ieas't · II million illegal aliens (mostly Mexican) working in the Uni4ld Sta~s at low-paying jobs that U.S. citizens are reluctant to do at those wages. This enables defenders of the status quo td argue (correctly) that the U.S. economy .. along with the charade, calcu, lating that they will get the votes of most of the aliens when they finally become citizens, even though the illegal William immigrants are a deadly ecoR nomic threat to the usher Democrats' traditional allies in the labor unions and the black community: The ·result is that there will simply couldn't sustain the be no .serious immigratipn arrest and repatriation of those reform.

'· PageA6 FAITH • VALUES A Hunger For More THE REStnmEcriON GOSPEL The Daily Sen~el --c------_____ I met Nicholas while. on a trip to Africa. At the conclu. sion of a pastors' conference at which I and a pan:ner had been teaching, he sat down with me and told me his story. His grandfather was a yam farmer and was known in the srtlall west African village of Kpandai (pronounced ''pondeye") for the successful yield and quality of yams that he grew. The people of the village respected the old man but were silent on the matter of the fann itself and its owner's methods of preparing the 'soil. Of course, he was good to the villagers also, knowing that they were neighbors and friends. That's why he was careful to hire only "outsiders" to ' work on his farm . There were always strangers from other tribes and villages in need of work in this secluded and impoverished part of Ghana. Nicholas knew as well as any other villager from Kpandai of his grandfather's · adherence to the old religion, "Ju-ju." Ju-ju had beep a part of his family 's life as long as anyone could remember. This religion. descending from dark days in Africa's long, long history. lingers still in vast areas of the "dark continent" with its roots buried deeply in the soil of savage tribal wars and the super~i tious and brutal worship of evil spirits. So Nicholas knew well the traditions and knew also the faith that his grandfather placed in those traditions and . beliefs. How many times had Nicholas observed the dark ritual conducted at night, his grandfather dressed in the traditional vestments with the fire and the "victim" before him ? The _chanting would begin, at first a soil murmuring, as . his grandfather would sharpen the blade. The~ the old man's hand would rise while his eyes glazed over. fi xed upon the stone in front of him, an especially chosen yam upon it. The chanting would increase in volume, until the .man' s hand was lifted up over his head, the long knife paused for striking. His grandfather would cry out the name of one ofthe workers currently on his · farm and the blade would falL Agai n the knife would rise and again it would fall until the . "victim" was only a slashed up mass of yam bits in front of the old man. In the frenzy, small chunks sometimes would fly away and strike Nicholas who _was forced to stand by and look on. His grandfather would then scatter the pieces of yam puI p both up into the sky and . mto the fire before hlm. Nicholas knew what would ·come next: before the setting Pastor Thom Mollohan of the ·sun on the following day, the worker whose name had been called would be dead. His grandfather . would then instruct the other workers in burying the body of the slain laborer on the farm, an offering to the spirits for the next year's good y1eld. Each year was the same. His grandfather WoQid repeat the ritual and another worker would mysteriously die, becoming spiritual fertilizer for the yam plantation. For some reason, ihe workers never made a connection. But why should they? At the end of each season they would move on to find other work in other parts of Ghana and never return to Kpandai. All they knew was that a fellow worker had met his end in either a freak accident or a tragic and sudden illness. Then, other strangers would come tor the next season to take their place, ignorant of the intentions of their.employer. But the villagers knew. It had been this way as long as anyone in Kpandai could remember. So settled had they become with the relationship and "used to the idea," that they were not willing to challenge it. Why fight it when the power at work was benefitin~ them and only claimed its v1ctirns from outside their village? Besides, fear rul.ed their world stilL The dark power could not be challenged because the villagers had no weapon and no defense, no power of their own to face it. So, when Nicholas' ~rand­ father died, everyone m the village assumed that he, the new owner of the yam plantation, would follow his grandfather's ways and traditions. "After all ," people said, never knowing the grace that had been shown to them all these years by the one true God, "look how wealthy the spirits made his grandfather." Some said, "But he doesn 't follow the old ways anymore. He 's become a Christian." (Thom MoUohan and his' They were answered with, "It family have ministered in won 't hold.

He is the pastor of Nicholas had, in fact, heard Pathway Community . some Chri stians .in the village Church, which meets on talking about Jesus. He had Sundny mornings at the Ariel heard about the cross of Theatre. He IIUlJ be reached Calvary; he had heard about for comments or q_.1ueslions by the resurrection; he had even e-mail at pastorthom@pathheard that the power that waygaUipolis.com). r ·r brought Jesus back from the dead could also give him freedom from the dark and terrible magical traditions that he had known all his life. One night, he fell down on his knees, turned his back on the Old Ways, and received forgilleness and eternal life as he placed his faith in Jes~ Christ. Imagine, then, the raised eyebrows and ·even sheer astonishment when this young man, Nicholas, declared that he would not walk in the ways of his fathers but would now trus.t Jesus with the farm, his family, and his future. The other Christians in . Kpandai rejoiced. But those . who did not know Christ as Savior, shook their heads . "Just wait," they whispered . to each other. "When his farm begins to fail and his ·family be~in s to suffer, when the s p~rits become angry. and bring their wrath dow11 upon him, he 'll go back to Ju-ju." But the farm did not fail . Nicholas declared that he would grow the yams now in Jesus' name, trusting that He would help him. And so Jesus did: the yam yield was more · plentiful than ever with larger yams than had ever been grown there. In time, Nicholas became the pastor of the Believers in his village. When asked about his life and his reasons for agreeing . to become pastor, he smiled and explained simply, "I want men and women to know the. forgiveness of sin that God gives to those who tum to Him. I want them to know His power to heal and forgive. He is real to me and I belong to Him now." Nicholas' passion now is that of Isaiah 63:7 ... "I will tell of the kindnesses of the LOJID, the deeds for which He is to be praised, according to all the LOJU) has done for us - ¥es, the many good things He has done ... according to His com.passion and many kindnesses." Perhaps you need to personally experience the same power and grace in your life that Nicholas di<;l.lf you haven' tyet · turned to Jesus, then tum to Him and come to know His power to heal and forgive. If you have already met Him and allowed Him to become Lord of your life, then let your passio!J be to tell of His compassion and many kindnesses, too. r ·r r r r r i· r r 1 Scripture: Acts 10.34-43 "Gospel" means "good news," and the centerpiece of this good news is that Christ is risen indeed. Perhaps we miss the importance of this point, which would explain why we often fail to share this Gospel like Peter did some two thousand ye,ars ago. As Luke Timothy Johnson points out, 'The existence of Christianity is inexpli cable apan: from the exJlCrience and conviction that the story of ·Jesus -did not end with his death ... " No·, Christ arose victorious over the grave, . triumphant over death, a fact borne out by the words of Peter and in the testimony of his life as well. Consider if you will that Peter, who had defied the Lord three times, who had fled from hi.s .arrested Master, who had 'hidden· in fear as Christ lay in the tomb is now suddenly bold and certain in words and actions. Consider also that Peter, who before considered Gentiles profane and unclean, who believed that the message of redemption was for his people alone, who sought human glory and power now brings the message of salvation to "anyone who fears" especially, why would he present this Gospel to the Gentiles? But Peter did proclaim the Gospel and he proRev. Jonathan claimed it to a Gentile fami ly.

BUSCH · ROBBY GORDON NEXTEL CuP SERIES No. 7 v MENARDS CHEVROLET E R Denny Hamlin s u s Mark Martin Denny Hamlin v•. Mark Martin Ever the maverick, Gordon looks for success with a single-car team By Monte Duttoo NASCAR This Week Few NASCAR drivers are as talented or independent as Robby Gordon, who is defying the odds by competing 'regularly in the Nextel Cup Series with his own single·car team. That path seems more difficult every year as multi-car teams like Roush Racing, Hendrick Motorsports and Joe Gibbs Racing increasingly dominate the sport. This year Gordon is making progress, though it hasn't really translated yet into a real breakthrough. The latest race' was dis.couraging as Gordon got in an early crash and finished last at Martinsville. · The 37"year-old driver from Orange, Calif., remains deter"Why 'try mined, though, seeking a third career victory on his own terms. "Why try it? I have the ability to attract sponsors; people and build cars as good or better than · anybody in ·the business," said Gordoit "That will make us competitive." Gordon draws comparisons to Alan Kulwicki, the 1992 Winston Cup champion, who won his championship going it alone. No one bas e,ven come close since, and Kulwicki's · career ended tragically in a 1993 airplane crash. · "I'm sur~ the odds are greater today than they were then," said Gordon, referring to Kulwicki's example. "The competition now is so incredible. On any given Sunday in Nextel Cup today, there are 25 guys who literally could win, who could pull their car into victory lane because that team is good. You have five Roush cars, three RCR cars, three Gibbs cars, four Hendrick cars . There alone are 15 guys who can win." Gordon has won in a wide variety of series, twice competing in the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on the same day. He has three career victories In NASCAR's pre. mier series, but his list of accomplishments also includes off-road victorie.s at the Baja 1000 in 1987, 1989 and 2004 and two victories in what is now known as ChampCar. He almost won the Indy 500 in 1999 and finished fifth in both 1994 and 1995. · "You can always say, if you would've done this or if you would've done that, you could've won x number of championships," said Gordon. "You know what? I didn't get those it? I have the ability to attract· sponsors, people and build cars as good or better than anybody in the business:' Hamlin. a rookie. turne'd heads when he blamed highly respected Mark Martin for a crash on lap 308 of the OirecN 500. "I understand that he's trying to g'et his lap back,· said Hamlin, "but, gosh , you've got to give room to the lead-lap cars. This is what happens. The '6' car (Martin) was a lap down, and he bounCed off the wall and came into me. This am't the fir~t time. At Las Vegas. he ran me into the wall. There's so many races that I can say the '6' car didn't give me any room. I understand I'm a rookie and he's the veteran, but we're all on the same race track." NASCAR This Week's Monte Dutton &tves his take: "Many experi· enced drivers talk about racing oth-, ers based on the style the other dri\1er uses.

BREED • CLASSIFIED ASSOCIATED PRESS DURHAM, N.C. At Dulc:e University, they like to say there's only one real fraternity on campus: LAX, short· hand for lacrosse. Long before tlie university was rocked by alleg<jtions that. lacrosse players raped a strip~r during an off-campus party March 14, Duke's h1ghly ranked team ·had a reputation for swagger and a . powerful sense of entitlement. Now administrators are starting to wonder whether they put up with it for too long. "Taken as a group, is there a special history of bad behavior with this team ?" Duke President Richard H. Brodhead said Wednesday in announcing the resignation of the coach, the cancellation of the rest of the season and the opening of an internal investigation. A black stripper who was hired to perform at a team party has charged that three white players choked and raped her in a bathroom in the early morning hours of March 14. Witnesses said she was also taunted with racial slurs. No arrests have been made; police· are awaiting DNA test results on the team members. The team's captains have acknowledged hinng a stripper and allowing underage drinking, but have denied any rape occurred. · Even before the scandal, the nearly all-white team had come to personify an arrogant elite on this pnvileged campus, a collection of Gothic-style buildings dominating the landscape of this working-class city almost evenly diviqed between black and white. · Nearly a third of the team's 47 members have been charged in recent years with offenses such as disorderly conduct and public urination. Neighbors have described the · leased single-story whife home where the alleged attack took place as · a kind of "Animal House." A rusted tin shed out back is spray-painted with players' nicknames and jersey numbers, and a primitive white painting of a lacrosse player adorns the roof.

Duke law rofessor James Coleman Jr., pwho has been appointed to investigate . the team, said he wants to kriow whether bad behavior by the lacrosse team "is something that has been ongoing, whether the university has been aware of it, whether the teams -. the coaches and athletic department- have been aware of it; and · whether the university, 1 coaches and athletic department have taken appropriate action to deal with it.' The allegations have Dr. Marie Savard questioning whether the Duke lacrosse program was really the incubator of integrity, responsibility and sportsmanship she thought it was when she had entrusted her three boys to it. "We were happy that our kids were at Duke and not . someplace where it was all . about the game and winning and not about the sportsman- · ship and the academics and colle~iality," said the I?enver phystcian, who constdered Pressler a "role model and sort of second parent" to sons Zac~.
