What are your thoughts on the recent Bostom Bombing?

2013-04-18T16:07:04.000Z

In light of recent events, what are your thoughts? In the MSM I haven't seen a lot of applying this to current political debate, doesn't mean it's not happening, I just haven't seen it yet.

If you think it is a false flag operation, aside from the "because they always" type of arguments (you can use those too if you need to) that always seem to follow this sort of thing, what do you think the endgame is? I have seen lots of arguable evidences posted, but trying our best to piece together verifiable facts, if Boston is a puzzle piece, can your describe/analyze it and how it fits into the larger picture?

A lot of these types of discussions tend to be "preaching to the choir" is there a way to frame/structure this discussion that it can be presented to "non-believers" in a way that is compelling enough for them to look at?

Monsanto Protection Law - They know not what they do

2013-03-22T11:43:56.000Z

I think we need to not live in red alert all the time. I don't think it is healthy, but I do think we need to be vigilant and try to show people the truth about food, to strive for a more loving and just planet/society. In this instance, I think we need to speak to our representatives, to let them know what many other countries already know, that we cannot give BioTech companies free reign with our food. They are motivated by profit NOT our well being and in the case of food, the consequences could be dire.

Congress passes Monsanto Protection Act, All hands on deck!

We regret to inform you, but today Congress succeeded in passing Section 735, aka the Monsanto Protection Act, in the Continuing Resolution spending bill. Once again, Monsanto and the biotech industry have used their lobbying power to undermine your basic rights. We need you to contact Congress and tell them you are outraged. With the Senate passage of the Monsanto Protection Act, biotech lobbyists are one step closer to making sure that their new GMO crops can evade any serious scientific or regulatory review.
This dangerous provision, which we're calling the Monsanto Protection Act, strips judges of their constitutional mandate to protect consumer and farmer rights and the environment, while opening up the floodgates for the planting of new untested genetically engineered crops, endangering farmers, citizens and the environment.
We are asking that you take action here and then call Congress to shut down their phone lines until Section 735 is removed from the CR before the President signs. Join us in putting a stop to the Monsanto Protection Act!

How do you keep balanced?

Sometimes in our tospy-turvy world, life can seem to get really incongruent with the sort of peaceful, open vibe so often associated with eating cleanly. It's pretty amazing what cleaning up the diet can do, not just physically, but mentally, emotionally and even spiritually.

How do you all choose to engage the world in a way that is effective and yet does not bring you down to a low vibration, or feeling negative, combative, on red alert all the time?

Or do you think it is necessary to keep the alert level high? If so, how do you do that without it dragging you down?
