Perhaps you'd like a current update of Jason Priestly's condition.
Will you be attending The World Conference on Sustainable Development this week, held by the UN at Johannesburg?
Well said!
I guess that leaves me out. What's Agenda 21?
That has a nice Marxist ring to it.
Unsustainable freedomBy Henry Lamb
web posted May 27, 2002The opposite side of sustainable development is unsustainable freedom. Sustainable development means: government-managed integration of economic development, environmental protection, and social equity.
The concept of government-managed economic development is the opposite of free enterprise and free markets. The concept of government-managed environmental protection tramples the concept of private property rights. The concept of government-managed social equity penalizes individual achievement, enterprise and excellence, and rewards the opposite.
Sustainable development is government-managed development; freedom cannot survive in a government-managed society.
In a land that celebrates the recognition that "all men are created equal," with the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, a person can no longer live wherever he chooses. If the choice is outside the urban boundary; in a critical habitat area; within the "view-shed" of a scenic byway; or is inconsistent with any of the government's management requirements, freedom is sacrificed on the altar of sustainable development.
Moreover, those people who have chosen to live within what has been designated as a buffer zone, or a proposed connecting corridor between wilderness areas, are being forced off their land in order to reshape our free society into a sustainable society. Klamath Basin farmers live in a proposed buffer zone. The Endangered Species Act was the vehicle chosen to deprive the farmers of their water to force them off the land. Although the farmers have won the battle for now, it is a temporary victory. Environmental organizations have sued to force the government to protect the fish, and force the people off the land.
The bible of sustainability is Agenda 21, adopted at the U.N. Conference on Environment and Development in 1992. The 10th anniversary of its adoption will be celebrated at the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg, South Africa, August 26 - September 4, 2002. More than 40,000 proponents of global governance are expected to gather to adopt a Plan of Action to speed the "wrenching transformation of society" into sustainability.
Agenda 21 . . .
Natural Process: That Environmental Laws
May Serve the Laws of Nature.

How do we resist when both parties are working against us?
The Truth is our most powerful weapon right now.
Past that I guess we all have decisions we must make.
I don't care about royalty , economic status , name , job or title , I accept only one King.
And if Gods' own people can't lay claim to this world than neither can Caesar.
Although he has many people believing he can. And that is their main strength LIES , drag them into Gods' Light and they will crumble...
From some of the protests around the world concerning the WTO , it appears many people know the Truth. They don't get coverage so that it appears everyone is going along with the elites , but the elites know better. Which is why they control the medias , our schools and churches and our government.
Once again the will use a catastrophy for effect and confusion , so that their solution (world rule) will be seen as a helpful thing.
Most people don't want to talk about it , it takes them out of their comfort zone. So do we quit talking so their comfort zone can become our substainable slavery ? There's something in the Bible that says when you know your neighbor is in jeopardy and don't warn him , you are also guilty of the harm that comes to him.
I guess I see myself as warning my neighbors the best I can. If they choose to remain in the path of danger , there's nothing I can do.
As much as people don't want to know the Truth , sooner or later they will see it coming.
