We as a nation and world must achieve a higher insight into the value of implementing "righteous character principles" into all policy-making processes and stratagems. These universal mutual peace and prosperity based relationship principles apply to all institutions and policies worldwide. My other pages emphasize the importance of implementing principled righteous character in our values, in our ideas, in our purposes, in our policies and practices, in our ways and means to achieve --principled—righteous ends. This also goes for capitalism and our global economic policymaking agendas.The value of incorporating the character elements of wisdom which include righteousness, justice, truth, and equity in all constitutional law, statutory law, public and private policymaking is our first essential toward the establishment of worldwide mutual peace and prosperity for all of humanity. To the degree that we do not teach and apply the preceding principles we will suffer revolutions, mass murder terror attacks with endless wars, leading to mutual poverty and destitution. Which destiny will or would you choose?
The quality of our individual and public policy making character determines the quality of all human relationships. The higher the level of our world citizenry's virtuous and righteous character qualities, --providing these qualities are instituted in all policymaking at all levels, the richer and more meaningful our lives' will be.
Formal education must be much more than the three R's because principle based moral character building is the foundation on which to build a secure, stable, and prosperous future for all of humanity. Our policymaking and everything we do, speak, legislate, or communicate is an instrument for good or evil; it is either constructive or destructive. We are all—at the same time—teachers and students.
If you were to take a huge blackboard and draw a circle as close to its edge as possible, most of the circle would symbolize the economic and political marginalization of the vast majority of our world's citizenry. The majority of our global citizenry is denied the bountiful fruits of righteously based economic policymaking agendas. The time for change is now—it is time to make all of our policymaking agendas reflect the righteous character of a righteous world citizenry.
Would it be wise to employ every available resource toward every nations goal of preventing terrorism and wars and replace that self destructive ways and means with a political philosophy that will produce a mutual win/win for all countries and their people?
Get out your Webster's Dictionary and your Roget's A to Z Thesaurus because I'm going to talk about "Principled Idealism" and its characteristics of Righteousness, Justice and Truth in its power to produce unity of purpose, and mutual peace and prosperity for our world.
Therefore, injustice, real or perceived, spawns hatred, --also, injustice is the principle characteristic of unrighteousness and is the true enemy that we must marshal all available resources against! We must use all of our available communications resources along with the righting any and all unjust policy mistakes!
It could be of utmost importance to answer these questions:
Why do they hate us, and what can we do to reduce that hatred? Don't accept generalized statements from our leaders, --rather ask the those that hate America's foreign policies.
Stated further, what are all of the reasons that tend to generate hatred toward various countries and their people, and how best can we use our intellectual resources to reduce those reasons or motives that generate hatred levels that lead to terrorist acts?
Of course, there is no level of grievances that would ever justify the totally destructive use of nuclear weapons. The question is: How can we use the persuasion power of the highest principled moral elements of human intellect to eliminate such mutually heinous self defeating unjustifiable means to attain mutually beneficial goals.
Few regimes could ever refuse the tremendous mutual benefits that such "high level practical principled idealism resources" can produce. There is not enough money in this world that can generate the quality of life that can be achieved by implementing principled righteousness into every human relationship equation, including all economic policy making worldwide.
There are numerous ways and means by which to reduce or eliminate wars and terrorism attacks. A war on terror and a national or global defense to defend against terrorist' actions needs to be immediately supplemented with the world's intellectual disciplines of all countries. We also need to apply the fields of psychology and psychiatry to aid in the process of changing policies and communications that will be more just, and which in combination will help to remove the hate driven motivations of most terrorists'.
We should not only be effectively mass communicating with the all the terrorist factions within all countries but also with our own policy makers, corporations, and our people to make the world more just, and equitable for all peoples of our world.
All foreign policies need to be examined for unnecessary injustices, oppressions, and exploitations. This goes for all private companies and corporations doing business or affecting the policies of the countries containing the identified terrorist factions.
We have not been applying sufficient amounts of existing capacities of the latent talents of our intellectual resources to the critical problem of widespread terrorism.
There has been no attempt, that I am aware of, to negotiate away many of the hatred generating causal source of motives that produce the terrorist mentality. Effective communications at all levels will begin to eliminate the hatred centered motivational sources, this ought to be a first priority in our attempts to eliminate both the short and long-term threats of terrorism and never ending wars. Unmediated hatred is the real enemy of all of humanity. Together we must apply the most cost effective resource investments to achieve world peace and mutual prosperity.
