"The Legacy Charles and Sarah Parham left to their spiritual posterity, positions them among the most formidable couples in the history of the world. Yet, much of their contribution has been utterly misrepresented by persons seeking personal benefit. Racial hatred has been used as a motive to attempt to rewrite their history. They are easy targets because they were born white. Yet, their enemies were never people of color. Their enemies were and remain mostly white Americans...The main source of detestation toward the Parhams was from white men in leadership within the "Movement." Black ministers laying hands on white people was more than religious people like Warren F. Carothers, Howard Goss, and his Southern friends were willing to tolerate. From their lofty places, they judged Parham, and felt he must be stopped!" Carothers' work was in cohesion with the positions of the Klu Klux Klan (KKK) His friends helped form the Assemblies of God (AOG) where blacks could be excluded." -Bishop Bernie Wade, Author

Our species Homo sapiens; Where we came from and how we developed...Probably, the questions of the Universe, religion, and their place in our life appear in the mind of any thinking person. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights states: All people are born free and equal.The Founding Fathers of America envisaged almost everything. But even they could not have foreseen that society would change so much. Simple-thinking people have come to power through elections. People with different ideas than the Founders Fathers on freedom, right, and wrong have become the majority. They seek to tax everything and divide it among the people. Democrats have gone from defending slavery to promoting socialism and are moving farther to the Left. They want to lower the age limit of voters to sixteen and give illegal immigrants and felons the right to vote. For the sake of power, they are ready to destroy the Constitution.The ideology, though I prefer the word religion, of communism has once again reared its ugly head, and the uneducated citizens demand the redistribution of wealth throughout general society.All people are born equal and free. That is true in one sense. But I always thought this statement was somewhat naive and pathetic because some people are born healthy and wealthy while others are poor and sick. There are persistent inequalities. Wise and not so bright. Lucky and unfortunate. Some are born in an ethical and free country. Others are born in terrible third-world countries with no freedom or food. Some have a lovely family where the children are loved and cherished. Others live in unhappy families where children are seen as a burden. The dichotomies are endless.Social inequalities greet us from the day of birth and accompany us throughout our life journey. There are racial, national, gender, physical, and intellectual differences in addition to social inequalities. Our lives are affected by our unique talents, demographics, birthplace, and many other factors.Some receive dividends from inherited wealth or gains made through their efforts; others live day-to-day through the sweat of their brow. Also, some cannot work, and some do not even wish to work.All these social inequalities have led to the stratification of society. Much less fortunate in the social hierarchy belong to minority groups in many modern states, gaining more government seats. Their voices are getting louder and more demanding.We cannot turn back time and redo our mistakes. The freedoms for which those minorities have fought for many years are today's reality. All these groups are becoming the majority in the population; our planet's future is in their hands. For better or worse, it is up to our descendants to deal with it. They must go down this unexplored path. Whether they will defend traditional values or invent others, we do not know. What awaits our society tomorrow? Civil war, chaos, or something even worse? As we leave, we wish them good luck and pray for even the nonbelievers.

An admiring biography of John C. Calhoun by Margaret Coit won the Pulitzer Prize in 1950. A little later John F. Kennedy chaired a committee that declared Calhoun to be one of the five greatest U.S. Senators of all time. The times have changed and recent writers have once more relegated Calhoun to a dark corner of American history. In the first half of the 19th century Calhoun was for 40 years one of the half dozen most important public men of America. Seldom victorious, he was always important and always listened to on many more national questions than slavery. Clyde Wilson, who is more familiar with Calhoun than anyone in our time, by exploring neglected aspects of his thought, demonstrates that Calhoun was a statesman-one who had a farseeing vision of the public good and told the people what he thought, even if unpopular. And that much of what he had to say is prophetic wisdom for the present.

Her dreams hint that something far more sinister is embedded in the hotel's history.
