Yep this support would be in alignment with Postmodern Public Health. Colliding a radical reading of modern [Science-Based] public health policy and mental health policy along with post-modern Transcendentalism should aggressively assert a common need for a direct spiritual cultivation by 1] meditation practice, 2] sudy of civics and science education, and 3] public work in the service of others to engage this otherwise radicalist fanaticism of religionists as antidote. Vast evidence of science on these points of spiritual practices in meditation, study, and service to others would support this too. It is time to put an end to fanatical religion by substituting a deeper spirituality for all.
As transcendentalists we have advocated transformation by meditationist practices, study of great spiritual works and literature, and doing good to help others. Meditate and act. It is time. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <olliesed...@yahoo.com> wrote : So support those who are elected, including President Hillary Clinton in November. But you won't.

Do your research on school vouchers, etc. Nothing more than racism disguised as "choice", and skewed heavily in favor of Christian in name only schools. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mdixon.6569@...> wrote : States are in charge of their population's education, not the feds.

So much for *Pro-Choice*. the reality is that you people are fundamentalist dictators, who really don't understand the form of government we have here. It is called a democracy No, we don't live in a *democracy*. We live in a Constitutional Democratic Republic. The founding fathers knew the idiocy of a democracy.
