I hope that whether you are christian, atheist, or catholic that you take the time to read this website and sign a post card. I'm a strong believer in the separation of church and state and was quite surprised by what I have just learned. I do not believe that any church should be represented in a government  body let alone have a vote!!

(I have nothing against catholics nor do I deny the good things the Catholic Church has accomplished with being recognized by the United Nations. I stand firm in my opinion that any religious organization should be an observer.)

URGENT MESSAGE FROM THE NYCLU:

New Yorkers: Apply Pressure

We are so close. This week — with a little pressure — New York may finally rid itself of its draconian and hurtful Rockefeller drug laws.

These mandatory-minimum drug sentencing laws require judges to lock up for years people caught with small amounts of drugs. Nearly 200,000 nonviolent New Yorkers have been locked away because of these laws. More than 90 percent of them are black and Latino, and they overwhelmingly come from a just handful of low-income NYC neighborhoods. Instead of getting treatment or job training or an education, they are sent to prisons, hours from their families and any support system. Many of them languish in prison for decades.

The state Assembly took a bold first step and passed a reform bill last week. The state Senate must pass a similar proposal and Gov. David Paterson must sign it.
We need your help to make this happen!

If you live in New York, click the following to send a fax to the Governor and your State Senator:

If you dont live in New York, please forward this to your friends who do.

Thank you for helping so many. My son's civil liberties have been violate by the public he was in; he has autism and he was expelled because of compilations from his disability. They even called the police on him for tossing his planner. He did not intend for it to hit the teacher, but it is such a dinky thing it would not hurt even a child. Anyway, that is just part of my story. You do well for everyone, maybe I should contact you about this.

I grew up with the belief that the ACLU was the evil monster that was out to destroy America and Christians. However, I now see that the ACLU is one of the most important organizations that protects freedoms for all Americans. That is why I have decided to support it and turn against the right wing lies I was taught.

Thanks for the add. ¶ People hear only what they want, so facts alone won't wake them; they'll need inspiration too. An echo of an echo of Buddha or Jesus becomes encrusted in ritual, and loses context and content. Still, we write what we can. Try to hear the questions behind people's questions. ¶ This world's diverse evils have a common root: Bullies, liars, thieves, and murderers — in market, government, and elsewhere — believe we're all separate, motivated only by self-interest, greed, fear. They want us to share that belief, for they use it to justify themselves, to keep us apart, to control politics and the economy, perpetuating war, poverty, and ecocide. Their power comes not so much from cabals as from trojan memes, ubiquitous propaganda, implicit in ads and in their framing of the news. ¶ But they're mistaken about our motives. You and I have found love inside ourselves and our friends. It's in everyone, if only we can wake them, for we're all one flesh and blood. Let's spread that vision, for until we do our other advances will be minor and temporary. The bureacracy of brutality cannot stand if we open the eyes of its workers. ¶ What is human nature? Our task is not just to describe what we see, but to choose what we hope to become. The ideological battle between love and fear shapes the world, and its outcome is not yet written. Watching, voting, shopping are not enough. If you haven't already, join the global conversation, in whatever way feels right for you. Worldwide enlightenment has no precedent, no rules; we must discover and erase them en route. Make love not war is as serious as Orwell and as light as "Chocolat." ¶ For a start, just talk with people; that may not sound like much, but really it's huge. Spread the word. Each of us knows only part of the song, but keep singing, hoping, resisting, questioning. Hand in hand, we may heal this world yet.
— Eric
