Theos-Talk Archives (November 2002 Message tt00548)

Hi Bart and all of you,

I agree Bart.
And what is social uplift you ask.
I ask the same ?
I think it must be something humanitarian and something positive.
Maybe one of your friends has a Dictionary, and then we perhaps will find
that one out.

I am working on the idea - of a non-violence movement against neuclear
weapons a la Martin Luther King Jr.
or something else religious like United Religions Initiative (www.uri.org ).
Maybe one should contact some of the Journalists - and explain to them the
grave situation
humanity really are in right now !

Feel free to do your best...

from
M. Sufilight with my pals peace, love and patience...
