These things take time. And for those that do not believe that "Global Warming" or Climate Change or what ever the cool catch word is now.....sooner or later people will get the hint. My history book tells me that people back in the day thought the earth was flat!
All you can do is educate, make small changes over a steady ammount of time, and live. Take Gas for an example......yeah we need different types of fuel......yeah we need SUV's that get 80MPG. I agree. The problem is...... and don't say it isn't a problem cause the Engine Mech that works for the local Ford dealer would say it is a HUGE problem to him. We can not just in a few years phase out all the MOGAS cars and trucks. To many people would be out of work, whole economys would crash....bla bla bla. BUT........ if we slowly start making changes make new jobs for the new type stuff..... then Jon and the local Ford dealership still has his job, still feeds his family..... and the world gets saved.
People do NOT change until.....
1. They Know Enough to Change 2. Hurt Enough to Change
As far as political parties go......
we need a Republicrat.
There are stuff that both parties have that I am totally agrement with. But then.......there is some stuff that........well I like your points 1-5 but 6-10 suck more than I like points 1-5 so I vote for the guy that sucks the least!
BUT.......I VOTE so that gives me the right to gripe. People that do not vote do not have the right to gripe! But that is just my take in the issue. Good reading this thread...... pretty cool ideas and thoughts.
And seeing how others have made Christian pot shots in prior posts of this thread.......... If the people would have read Isa in the Bible they would have known that the world was round and NOT flat. ".......God sits above the circle of the earth..."
"Everything will be ok in the end, if it's not ok, then it's not the end."
