I don't really go down one path. I wouldn't call myself a Buddhist or a Catholic or a Christian or a Muslim or Jewish. I couldn't put myself into any organized faith.
We are stronger because we recognize that government isn't the sole answer to the most important questions and we welcome community and faith based organizations as partners to serve the needs of Florida families.
In properly organized groups no faith is required what is required is simply a little trust and even that only for a little while for the sooner a man begins to verify all he hears the better it is for him.
What makes community organizing especially attractive is the faith it places in the ability of the poor to make decisions for themselves.
We got on his label and the Bizarre organization is just going up and up. So we have faith.
For me the peculiar qualities of faith are a logical outcome of this level of biological organization.

On the road to equality there is no better place for blacks to detour around American values than in forgoing its example in the treatment of its women and the organization of its family.
The American economic political and social organization has given to its citizens the benefits of material prosperity political liberty and a wholesome natural equality and this achievement is a gain not only to Americans but to the world and to civilization.
Looking back there is nothing wrong with that peace love and equality that the hippies espoused. In many ways we have regressed because they were into organic food back to nature make love not war be good to all men share and share alike - which is what many are talking about now.
I want to organize so that women see ourselves as people who are entitled to power entitled to leadership.
We're not trying to reinvent the wheel for any environmental organization to claim sole responsibility for any kind of victory is insane because everybody attacks these problems as a group.
We have a project with Unocal here in Los Angeles where we as an environmental organization the oil company and the state all get together to promote the recycling of used motor oil.
All living beings not just animals but plants and microorganisms perceive. To survive an organic being must perceive - it must seek or at least recognize food and avoid environmental danger.
I don't think it's too hippie to want to clean up the planet so you don't wind up dying of some kind of cancer when you're 45 years old. It enrages me that these big cancer-research organizations can't be bothered to man the front lines of environmental protest.
I am on the board of corporations who contribute both to environmental problems and their solutions. And I am on the NGO side: the Earth Council and other organizations.
The position I took at the time was that we hadn't really examined any of the potential environmental consequences of introducing genetically modified organisms.
