Quotes to Inspire Awe & Action
I read at ArmyBarmy Blog a quote from James W. Douglass, referred by Aaron White (Friday, May 02, 2008).
It made me think about my friend Jarrod McKenna who is a revolutionary peace activist, based in Perth (but whose influence is world-shaking..)
I emailed it to him, and he made me famous! (His blog is much more widely read than mine…)
The joy of being connected. Thanks Jarrod!
The quote goes something like this:
“Jesus resisted evil with an intensity which revealed the uselessness and irrelevance of violence, and this resistance of love constitutes the Christian revolution.”
- James W. Douglass
Peace out.
ACT NOW for Australia.
For people who want to “Act Now” on the Australia 2020 Summit, the online community created a wiki so people across Australia could post, discuss, and vote on the best ideas for the country. It’s totally a grassroots effort. It’s free, can be anonymous, and isn’t being sponsored by any political party, business, union, or special interests. It’s just people who want to encourage an online national brainstorming session.
From Jim, the wiki creator;
The site is at ozideas.wetpaint.com. There are pages for over 20 different issues and even an online petition to get the best ideas heard at the actual Summit.
The more people know about it, the more ideas are submitted, and the better the discussion. It’s a great way for everyone to participate in the summit.
Also check out ACT NOW, an amazing website bringing together GREAT ideas from passionate Revolutionaries.
