How is this a "Pastor is the Antichrist" thread?
BTW, this nails you to a tee...What The Heck Is The Alinsky Method?
A little bit more...
What is 'Sensitivity Training?'© by Dr. Gerald L. Atkinson Copyright 18 July 1999
A specialized application of this 'change agent' technique, applied specifically to teachers, is called the Alinsky Method. It is a staple of the National Education Association (NEA). Saul Alinsky penned Rules for Radicals in 1971, in which he asserted that "any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the masses of people." [10] The radical organizer, he said, must be 'dedicated to changing the life of a particular community.' To accomplish this, the organizer must:
"Fan the resentments of the people of a community; fan the latent hostilities of many of the people to the point of overt expression--he must search out controversy and issues ... An organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontentment [sic] ... He knows that values are relative ..truth to him is relative and changing."

And it doesn't look like you're "in the middle" of anything.
It looks like you simply desire both threads to die.

The distinction I was trying to draw is that a "change agent" using the Alinsky Method attempts to get people to accept whatever point-of-view he's trying to promote. As I've stated much earlier on this thread (I believe), I really don't care what you all think . . . I'm here for the laughs. Moreover, I'm not sure the Alinsky Method calls for personal attacks for the same reason. I've engaged in my share . . . so whatever it is I'm doing, it's something else.

And let me repeat before someone goes off on another tangent, my initial contribution to this thread was to remind people of an Act passed by Congress (and signed by the President) in 2002. World Net Daily, for reasons apparent to some and inscrutable to others, neglects to provide this information.

I suppose my question should be: if the implementation of a biometric passport system is some sort of an extra-Constitutional, international conspiracy to erase our borders now, was it then? Or did it only become a conspiracy after Jerome Corsi and World Net Daily got wind of it?
