Our use of toxic energy is hurting our environment, even
killing many of us. Bio fuels must be part of our clean, safe energy strategy
to address man’s negative impact on nature and transform it into an empowerment
too. We have literally volumes of
confirmed evidence that toxic energy is one of the primary roots of our current
climate change crisis. Einstein warned about the decision to turn away from
biofuels to nuclear. “nuclear power is one hell of a way to boil water”. Henry Ford built and designed his car to run
on biofuels.
A simple shift from energy that is killing us to clean, low
cost or free energy sources
makes is the smart thing to do.
It is time to stop pulling material from the earth with
techniques like oil drilling, fracking, coal and nuclear energy and use what
the Earth gives us naturally like biofuels, magnetic, hydro, wind and solar.
Energy from farming is
clean. No need to crack Mother Earth
open to get it, Since much of our environmental pollution is the result of
approved government policies, reversing this crisis is a matter of math.
The great hemp activist Willie Nelson in the last decade
started his B20 BioWillie biodiesel
making him a pioneer in the field of biofuel, lifting the banner raised by
Henry Ford who worked with George Washington Carver to develop biofuels for
Ford’s diesel cars.
An excellent article on the subject is by Lynn Osburn “Energy Farming in
America” no nationalistic implications in the recommendation. “Farmers
should be encouraged to grow energy crops capable of producing 10 tons per acre
in 90-120 days. The crop has to be naturally high in cellulose.”
Please post your thoughts, videos and photos in the comments sections. As we build and implement the Action Plan for implementing the hemp solution and other smart actions, we're sharing ideas. Thanks.
Shifting to clean biofuels is not nuclear science, just
common sense. Let’s do it!
I am J. Nayer Hardin, founder of
and a conductor on the Computer
Underground Railroad, a cyber division of the original Underground Railroad.We use computers and other technology to help
people be free.The application of hemp, marijuana, cannabis (by whatever name) to our many problems is one of the technologies we support. The freedom to pray as our soul directs is another tool we can use
to save ourselves from the environmental holocaust we have created.
I am writing this letter of
support for Reverend Roger Christie who is in jail for praying with hemp and
support the reverend’s immediate release.
I understand the process of releasing him and allowing him to have a
trial, but in this time, when humanity must focus on saving ourselves from what we have created, it is imperative to unconditionally free Rev. Christie
now! Paraphrasing the old typing
training phrase ‘now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of our
world.’
My bias is I still believe in the
court system’s ability to make constructive change, as was demonstrated in the civil rights movement and is
in process for LGBT rights. An
uncorrupted court is committed to doing the right thing, what is in the best
interest of the citizens above all else, by instituting the Will Of The People. Countless surveys have revealed that We The
People want to be free to consume hemp, a what the Willie Nelson Peace Research Institute
calls "a peaceful solution" to many of our modern problems.
There is no question that Roger
Christie is a holy man in jail for empowering the process of prayer. For those who have never tried it, hemped prayer is a process of ‘relax your animal so your spirit can soar.’ I was raised Catholic, been doing A Course In Miracles since 1986, was a member of Dr. Norman Vincent Peale’s church, and am a metaphysical book reader including currently engaged in a cover to cover reading
of the King James Version of the bible, having recently completed the Book(s) of Mormon (Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, Pearl of Great Price).
I do my best to hemp and pray every day.
It keeps me on my mission without whining all the time.
The United States was founded in
part on hemp, which has been used to pay taxes in the past. Given that both Washington
and Jefferson were hemp farmers, it is logical to assume that their interests
were part of the founding process. No
way that they would want a man of prayer in jail for interacting with nature. Neither do I.
“On June 19,
2000, Roger received a license to perform marriages in the State of Hawai`i,
becoming the nation’s first licensed Cannabis Sacrament Minister (Hawai`i
Department of Health License # 00-313). Roger founded The Hawai`i Cannabis
(THC) Ministry in Hilo, Hawai`i to share the blessing of the Ministry with the
world. Roger opens the Ministry to all sincere religious users and cultivators
of Cannabis and has built a world-wide congregation of Cannabis sacrament
practitioners from more than 60 countries.”
Rev. Christie did nothing other than his ordained duties...which is why this injustice is operating in the first place. It is a minister’s responsibility
to provide the sacramental tools to the prayer group gathered. Yet, and we’re talking America in the 21st
Century, the Information Age, while in the process of fulfilling his God given
responsibility Roger Christi was arrested three years ago without as much as a trial,
let alone national media coverage.
“TheFirst Amendment to the U.S. Constitutionsays the government cannot make laws "prohibiting
the free exercise" of religion. Many people use marijuana as a religious
sacrament, and forcing them not to use marijuana clearly prohibits the free
exercise of their religion. In order to comply with the First Amendment, our
laws should allow for the religious use of marijuana.
Rastafarians
use marijuanain
religious rituals to enhance their consciousness of the relationship
between God, Creation, and the individual soul.
"The U.S. Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled on February 2 that under the Religious
Freedom Restoration Act of 1993, Rastafarian defendants should be allowed to
show that they use marijuana for bona fide religious reasons in their defense
against charges of possession of marijuana (U.S. v. Bauer,
No. 94-30073, 96 C.D.O.S. 756, 1996WL42240 (9th Cir. 1996);http://www.law.vill.edu/Fed-Ct/Circuit/9th/opinions/9430073.htm; Reynolds Holding, "Rastafarian Pot Could Be
Legal,"San
Francisco Chronicle, February 3, 1996, p. A14; "Marijuana
For Religious Reasons,"Washington
Post, February 5, 1996, p. A10; Associated Press, "Court:
Rastafarians Can Hold Marijuana,"Chicago
Tribune, February 4, 1996, p. 9)."
I don’t know if that ruling was
overturned, but at least the court got that one right. We have a right to pray in the style that
suits our souls best. It is most
important for all of us, especially holy souls, to do the right thing, what the
Lord says do.
There are many references to the
herb in the bible, and Rick Simpson’s caner oil sure reads like the “oil of
gladness” in Psalm 45:7. Without the court's intervention in this insanity called the war on drugs, we are doomed to deal with the excess radiation coming off of the nuclear disaster in Japan. Hemp's "oil of gladness" has sent many cancers into remission.
In summary Reverend Roger Christie has no
business being in jail for living as a minister and fulfilling his divinely
ordained function, like Moses, Jesus and countless other great souls have been
free to do before him. I am sorry to realize that we have devolved from the land of the free and the home of the brave to a nation where some forms of prayer that hurt nobody are illegal and can get one thrown in jail for years without a trial. I pray the court will erase the folly of making prayer and prayer tools illegal.
Though it is a
shame that he is in jail, it would be both the right thing to do and a blessing
to free Reverend Roger Christie - and all other non-violent hemp political prisoners - now.
Fukushima’s triple nuclear melt down is in process, genetically modified
foods have been approved, we have at least 3 oil “spills” going on today, the
toxins from the BP oil spill are still in the ocean, and the news is full of
talk of war. We need all the prayer
warriors free that we can get just to have a chance at surviving as a
species. Paraphrasing George Carlin, ‘the
planet will be just fine…man on the other hand’
Freeing our prayer leaders affords us the opportunity to use the power
to heal found in “Where two or more are gathered in my name.”
For the above reasons plus his
profound work in expanding the use of the cannabis prayer tool, I recommend
that Roger Christie and all other non-violent political prisoners be released
as unconditionally free from religious persecution, just like the Constitution
says.
In unity can be a reduction of stress. In a relaxed environment healing is easier.
The video above is from the Willie Nelson Peace Research Insitute, whose A PEACEFUL SOLUTION project is unifying folks in discussions of peaceful solutions to our problems, like the unity tip we just got from Sen. Barack Obama. Not since I HAVE A DREAM has there been a speech in America more uplifting and filled with solutions.
We've got to stop shooting the messenger. Reverend Dr. Jeremiah Wright is the preacher in Mark Twain's "The War Prayer." He's called for us to think things all the way through and look at the results of our actions. All this drama around his words, and not a peep about did he tell the truth.
On 9/11 was America as blessed as other days (we are always blessed)? Did you read Gary Webb's book Dark Alliance : The CIA, the Contras, and the Crack Cocaine Explosion Are the gangs Iran Contra created still terrorizing (and worse) folks? Have you looked at the heroic work of Dr. Boyd Graves about AIDS coming from the American government? Have we gone to war with innocent people while ignoring many of our children's & seniors needs? Have we made nature, hemp, illegal, changed rivers paths, polluted the environment and trashed the land? Have we perverted justice so bad we routinely jail people for interacting with a plant? Have we made it illegal to 'spare not the rod' and replaced spanking with drug abuse for our children? Have we forgotten how to love our neighbors as ourselves? When one looks at the history of this country, we have done and allowed some pretty foul things.
A real preacher has the courage to listen to the Lord because wisdom erases karma.
Look at it based on results.
As a nation, we cannot continue to murder, torture, rape, jail innocent folks, hate, etc. and expect continued blessings. We cannot pretend not to know the 9/11 - 19 lucky Arabs story makes no sense and restore the whole truth. The military was on stand down and professional pilots claim they could not have done the Pentagon flight path.
There is a reason behind our failing economy, health care system in crisis, children afraid to go to school, police brutality, polluted environment, etc. The responsibility is with We The People. The reason is the dross that comes from our nation's greed that says it's ok to go to war with people who did us no harm.
Rev. Dr Wright's anger is not all about race, other than the human one. By the time of Rev. Wright's 2001 speech, the EPA had already lied to the people of NY/NJ/CT that the air was safe to breathe and the water safe to drink. The policy of the City of New York put Manhattan on lock down rather than evacuate the area. The government had dammed the people of the tri-state area to the risk of World Trade Center Illness, from which folks are dying. I'm sure I was yelling a lot worse words than what Rev. Dr. Wright said as I was considering the millions of people exposed to the toxic soup called World Trade Center Dust.
If we can't talk about the problems we face from our hearts too, where there is both love and fear, and think the solutions all the way out, we are doomed to repeat the dramas of the past. We must leave room for folks to speak their minds, especially when they are speaking truth.
The only thing I don't agreee with Rev. Dr. Wright about is that it was the US government that damned America. Not God. It is the US people who, based on our actions, will restore, expand and share the blessings.
We cannot continue to do wrong to folks, including ourselves, and enjoy God's Blessings. It's a stupid construct destined to fail.
When one of the wisest people in the world, Willie Nelson, says there is something wrong with the 9/11 story, it's better to listen than to say his joints are too fat.
Alex Jones revealed that you have not yet begun to even look at what happened on 9/11 beyond what was presented on television where 19 lucky Arabs ran 4 planes into 3 buildings and the ground on a day when the military was on stand down.
They were so good that they even knocked down a building (WTC Building 7) they didn't hit.
Please consider having a conversation with Alex Jones presenting the evidence like thermite found at the site, demolition angle cuts in the support beams, the pulverization of the buildings, they did not fall, the lies from the EPA that the air, water and food were safe, followed up by the revelation that the White House altered the safety report.
World Trade Center Illness is killing people now. PLEASE. Consider the cause. If they had the best interest of the people at heart, those who served and lived there would not be fighting for the most basic of services.
Who benefitted most from the commission of the crime? The Arab nations? The 19 lucky hijackers? The Bush Administration who, though there were no Arab names on the any manifest, had stories, pictures and coming attractions as the day went on?
The first step on the yellow brick road is why did World Trade Center 7 fall.
Congressman Kucinich is for freedom, rare in these evil times.
In this post 9/11 lie, we are suppose to exchange freedom for the illusion of safety.
Congessman Kucinich during the debate took a stand on the freedom to love whom one chooses. For those against love or who insist on controlling who other people love, this may be the wrong thing to say.
But for those of us who love this country and the freedom it holds, follow Willie Nelson's lead and support Congressman Kucinich for president in '08.
With Kucinich, we no longer have to choose the lesser of two evils for president. Folks my age, over 50, know what I'm talking about.
"COOPER: Our next question is on a topic that got a lot of response from YouTube viewers. Let's watch.
QUESTION: Hi. My name is Mary.
QUESTION: And my name is Jen.
QUESTION: And we're from Brooklyn, New York.
If you were elected president of the United States, would you allow us to be married to each other?
COOPER: Congressman Kucinich?
KUCINICH: Mary and Jen, the answer to your question is yes. And let me tell you why.
Because if our Constitution really means what it says, that all are created equal, if it really means what it says, that there should be equality of opportunity before the law, then our brothers and sisters who happen to be gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered should have the same rights accorded to them as anyone else, and that includes the ability to have a civil marriage ceremony.
Yes, I support you. And welcome to a better and a new America under a President Kucinich administration.
(APPLAUSE)
Vote Kucinich for positive change. Restore America to her rightful role in world peace, as an innovator.
For those who have a problem with unconditional love, I urge you to read the groundbreaking book LOVING SOMEONE GAY.
Whatsoever we do to any of the Lord's children, we do to him.
RESTORE AMERICA - VOTE KUCINICH AND LET THE PEOPLE GET BACK OUR FREEDOM.
