[FairfieldLife] mounting concerns about TM org in Kansas
Meditation group brings more tension than harmony to farm town http://www.whotv.com/Global/story.asp?S=5002842nav=LotJ WHO-TV Des Moines Wed, 07 Jun 2006 7:45 PM PDT SMITH CENTER, Kan. Followers of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi see his Transcendental Meditation movement as fostering world harmony. But in the farm town of Smith Center, Kansas, T-M's plans to build its World Capital of Peace are creating more tension than tranquility. Folks became alarmed when the group bought up large tracts of land, and nine local pastors warned the movement that Smith Center is a Christian community. Mayor Randy Archer says, It hasn't split the community, but it has caused a lot of tension. The T-M movement plans to build a dozen marble peace palaces. Because Transcendental Meditation practitioners want to disperse waves of coherence as widely as possible to influence others, they chose a spot just ten miles west of the geographic center of the Lower 48 states.

I can't understand why Vaj would say the download software he was touting was for the PC when it only works with Firefox.

It's faster, respects standards more than IE, already has more useful add-ins than IE, and let's face it...the Mozilla people can write tighter code than the Microsoft people in their sleep. Just as a hint for those who are open to a newer and better browser, Firefox works best with a mouse that has a clickable scroll wheel. Click any embedded link in an email or Web page using the scroll wheel button and that link opens in a separate tab, rather than opening a new browser or replacing the contents of your current browser window with the contents of the link. I find it a much more intuitive way to work, and obviously Microsoft agrees because they've announced that they're... uh...borrowing these same features for the next release of IE. They've even claimed that the new IE will respect international standards for a change, but I'll believe that when I see it. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get to your groups with one click.

If this address to Congress is any indication, they're right: http://www.commondreams.org/views06/0607-34.htm So what's the consensus or 'seeing' here?

[FairfieldLife] Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism
Yet another new book on the religious right is available: Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism. written by Mchelle Goldberg This probably touches on subjects that we have broached before. However, I came across an interview with the author linked from the Working for Change website that gave me pause... You can read the entire thing at: http://www.workingforchange.com/article.cfm?itemid=20902 Congress was going to have the first-ever Hindu priest give an invocation. The Family Research Council issued a really angry statement, which says: While it is true that the United States of America was founded on the sacred principle of religious freedom for all, that liberty was never intended to exalt other religions to the level that Christianity holds in our nation’s heritage. Our founders expected that Christianity and no other religion would receive support from the government, as long as that support did not violate people's consciences and their right to worship. They would have found utterly incredible the idea that all religions, including paganism, be treated with equal deference. That’s from the Family Research Council, which is a spin-off of Focus on the Family. The Virginia religious liberty statute was written by Jefferson and is widely seen as the basis for the First Amendment. As Jefferson wrote in his autobiography, some had wanted to put an amendment into that statute saying that Jesus Christ was a source of religious liberty. Jefferson said, It was rejected by the great majority in proof that they meant to comprehend within the mantle of its protection the Jew and the gentile, the Christian and the Mohammedan, the Hindu and infidel of every denomination. So where do they get this from? Part of what I seek to do in my book is show that this is not just a political movement, but an entire parallel reality. It has its own revisionist history, including its own revisionist American history. There are volumes upon volumes that essentially rewrite the history of America, cherry picking various quotes and taking things out of context to try to show that the founders intended to create an Evangelical Christian America, and that separation of church and state is something that they never intended, and indeed would have been appalled by. It's an interesting, but scary, interview. -- Though I am a committed Christian, I believe that everyone has the right to their own religion, be you Hindu, Jewish or Muslim.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism
Where do they get this stuff indeed. My favorite is when the Righties and Fundies use Jefferson's famous quote on the Jefferson Memorial to justify their latest bigotry: I Have Sworn Upon the Altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man. What they don't seem to realize that this quote was from a letter to a friend, Dr. Benjamin Rush, and that the people he was ranting against were a group of Christians who were trying to take over a school system. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Vaj [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yet another new book on the religious right is available: Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism. written by Mchelle Goldberg This probably touches on subjects that we have broached before.

[FairfieldLife] Army officer refuses deployment to Iraq
This guy has multiple pairs, it seems. SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/6420AP_WA_War_Objector.html Wednesday, June 7, 2006 Fort Lewis officer says he'll refuse to go to Iraq By MELANTHIA MITCHELL ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER TACOMA, Wash. -- An Army lieutenant says he's prepared to face the consequences of his decision not to deploy to Iraq with his Fort Lewis Stryker brigade. First Lt. Ehren Watada, who turns 28 Thursday, could face at least two years in prison for failing to obey an order to deploy, the officer said Wednesday evening during an Associated Press interview. I know that my case has brought a lot of attention and scrutiny on me by my superiors. Also, I'm probably very unpopular, if not the most unpopular person on Fort Lewis. But I know out there there are people who believe in what I'm saying, Watada said. Watada is a member of the 3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division, the Army's first Stryker Brigade Combat Team. The unit is set to begin leaving later this month for a second mission in Iraq. This would be Watada's first deployment to Iraq. Watada, a native of Honolulu, joined the Army in March 2003, he says, out of patriotism, love of his country and a willingness to serve others. In fall 2005, he learned he would be sent to Iraq. On the advice from a commander he said told him a soldier should know everything you can about war, Watada began researching the reasons for U.S. involvement in Iraq. Based on his study of papers by international and constitutional law experts, as well as documents from governmental and non-governmental agencies, he said he concluded that the war in Iraq is illegal and immoral. We have violated American law, Watada told The AP, adding he believes that with respect to the question of whether Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, intelligence was manipulated to fit a policy that was already implemented prior to 9-11 and prior to the invasion. We can't break laws in order to fight terrorism, he said... ...Watada, whose commanders barred him from attending a scheduled noon news conference Wednesday because it occurred during his duty hours In a video played at the news conference, he said it was his duty as a commissioned officer of the United States Army to speak out against grave injustices. My moral and legal obligation is to the Constitution and not those who would issue unlawful orders. Watada said the war in Iraq is not only morally wrong but a horrible breach of American law. Although I have tried to resign out of protest, I will be forced to participate in a war that is manifestly illegal. As the order to take part in an illegal act is ultimately unlawful as well, I must as an officer of honor and integrity refuse that order. And he added, The wholesale slaughter and mistreatment of the Iraqi people with only limited accountability is not only a terrible moral injustice but a contradiction to the Army's own Law of Land Warfare Watada, who is opposed only to the Iraq war, did not apply for conscientious objector status. He said Wednesday evening he wouldn't object to going to Afghaistan. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- You can search right from your browser? It's easy and it's free.

Central Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: My tenth Great Grandfather, Ambrose Dixon, arrived in the colony of Virginia in 1640 from London and eventually felt compelled to leave because he was a Quaker and he felt he was being discriminated against for holding Quaker meetings in his home. Lord Baltimore offered him free land in Maryland and a guarantee not to be hassled over his beliefs. I think the predominating denomination in Virginia at the time was Episcopalian. A couple of my ancestors got into some kind of denominational religious difficulties here around that time and were imprisoned for a while. Don't know any of the details except that they wouldn't have been Quakers, and I believe they were in the New England area. I'm quite sure no British aristocrat offered them land if they'd just go away from where they were causing trouble, though. ;-) Baltimore was a Roman Catholic, was he not? Interesting that he'd have been more tolerant than the Episcopalians. Yes Lord Baltimore was a Catholic. He probably just wanted to increase his tax base because several Quakers went with Ambrose on the same deal. I think there might have been a little more to his leaving than just religious discrimination. Ambrose seemed to be a character. He first showed up in James City in 1640 in a court case. He was suing his employer for back wages owed him and won his case. In fact the judge ordered all of the other employees be paid like wise. He and some other settlers also started a war with the pohitan Indians causing trouble not only with the Indians but upsetting the other settlers as well. Some Quaker, LOL! He and the others were thrown in jail while things were settled with the Indians. On his release he had to sign allegiance to Cromwell. He also resisted paying taxes which he believed were supporting the Episcopalian church and subsequently his house was marked with a big red slash painted across his front door. This was the straw that broke the camel's back. At this point I think he and other Quakers must have petitioned Lord Baltimore to be able to move to Maryland for more religious freedom. Lord Baltimore was very accommodating to them. Ambrose was given 3 to 4 hundred acres referred to in tax records as Dixon's Choice. Neat! Did the land stay in your family? Where did you find all this out? Most people in the U.S. know bupkes about their ancestors. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get to your groups with one click.

Followers of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi see his Transcendental Meditation movement as fostering world harmony. But in the farm town of Smith Center, Kansas, T-M's plans to build its World Capital of Peace are creating more tension than tranquility. Folks became alarmed when the group bought up large tracts of land, and nine local pastors warned the movement that Smith Center is a Christian community. Mayor Randy Archer says, It hasn't split the community, but it has caused a lot of tension. The T-M movement plans to build a dozen marble peace palaces. Because Transcendental Meditation practitioners want to disperse waves of coherence as widely as possible to influence others, they chose a spot just ten miles west of the geographic center of the Lower 48 states.

Wow! Now I would like to know where that statistic comes from. Do they interview members of each group and take body counts and post them somewhere? Or maybe each group leaves a calling card on each victim which is collected by the police so they can keep score. As much as I'd like to just make stuff up like the Bush Adminstration and their lackeys do, you can read this for yourself at: http://tinyurl.com/kk3qp This comes from a publication called The Global Terrorism Analysis, who's editor comes from the Jane's Information Group, the 'ultimate source on defence, geopolitics, transport, and police.' I'm sure you've heard of them. Anyway, the statistic quoted begins in paragraph 7 of the article, Al-Zarqawi's Rise to Power: Analyzing Tactics and Targets, on the url shown above. Jim, it doesn't look to me as though this article says 14% of deaths were due to Zarqawi's attacks; looks to me like it's 70%. The 14% figure is the percentage of the Iraqi resistance made up of Zarqawi's people--the point being that while his group is relatively small, it's been *very* effective at killing people: Table 1 and Chart 1 (see below) provide several indications: Zarqawi and his faction constitute only 14% of the total Iraqi resistance, which clearly indicates that the network's size is limited and the international media is largely responsible for exaggerating their role. In addition, Zarqawi's tactics are dramatic as his faction routinely resorts to suicide attacks. Suicide bombings by the Zarqawi network, which make up 42.2% total suicide attacks in Iraq, have many advantages, the most important of which are low cost, lack of need for escape plans and media coverage. The percentage of suicide attacks perpetrated by Zarqawi's faction to the overall number of victims of other operations is 70% dead and 83.7% injured (see table 2). The high rate of victims apparently proves the effectiveness of the terrorist act (table 2 indicates that civilian victims of this tactic are as high as 80%) and achieves a large media coverage.

Right you are. Oops- I'm acting like the Bushies! Yipes! Anyway, the point I was making was that this guy's death is not going to alter the war in Iraq one way or another.
