Obama Nonviolent - When it Seems Not The Case
Obama, Violence and the Future - Associated Content from Yahoo! - associatedcontent.com
In the piece above I argue that the President could be our first Nonviolent Chief Executive
That seems a stretch when we have commandoes on secret missions in over 100 countries
But I am not sure he is not at least open to a turn toward a more realistic peace than we have imagined
The alternative is no less thinkable now than it was when we thought Cold War thoughts
It is in fact fraught with terror
The answer lies in a vast revaluation of values
Values are ontological elements of each human being
They are where freedom is
The only place where it is in terms of our conduct of life
It is to values that we must look
Nonviolence is not a value it is a characteristic like honor and courage
A value is a mode of acting that issues in tangible results
When the result is a nonbullying world it is because more and more people have learned tolerance, democracy and helpfulness and understand that these are universal within each living human being
