Lets talk a bit about real useful invovlment in the political system, not just wanking on kos.
My idea is to start a group called "Christian Engineers for a Just Society" because.... hey, I'm a Christian and an Engineer! (The point is what can YOU get involved with... HOW can we get involved in the political system?)
Engineers hold a special place in Canadian society. Perhaps if we put out a few press releases that debate polititians thin grasp of certain scientific principals that they attempt to use to support:
- Power grid problems
- Water Issues (Environmental issues)
- Etc...
I'm totally inspired by a website
Sojourners - Christians for Justice and Peace. There's a really cool story there in the same vein as my little diary entry.
Check out these cool dudes:
The Burden of Truth - A story of two former CIA analysts who started their own organization to debunk the crap coming out of the whitehouse.
"Two former CIA analysts talk about the lies behind the Iraq war and the heavy weight of conscience."
They started an organization called VIPS - Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity.
A damning memo put out by them WAY back in Febuary shows how right they were. Too bad nobody listenened... we need more people in all walks of society shouting out!
Memo For: President Bush Re: War on Iraq Check it out.
