Default Hello, Thomas here...

Hi, everyone. I'm Thomas, and I stumbled upon some of Soulforce's videos at YouTube this morning. Then I did some reading about Soulforce.

What you're doing impresses me, but what actually brought me here was finding out how you're going about doing it, because I can't think of better examples to pattern a movement after than the examples of Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King.

I'm interested in finding out more about Soulforce, and getting to know all of you.

A Soulforce Credo About My Adversary

Quote:

  1. I believe that my adversary is also a child of the Creator, that we are both members of the same human family, that we are sisters and brothers in need of reconciliation.
  2. I believe that my adversary is not my enemy, but a victim of misinformation as I have been.
  3. I believe that my only task is to bring my adversary truth in love (nonviolence) relentlessly.
  4. I believe that my adversary's motives are as pure as mine and of no relevance to our discussion.
  5. I believe that even my worst adversary has an amazing potential for positive change.
  6. I believe that my adversary may have an insight into truth that I do not have.
  7. I believe that one day my adversary and I will understand each other and that if we conduct our search for truth guided by the principles of love, we will find a new position to satisfy us both.
Not that I’m good at adhering to those principles, but I aspire to be, and that’s why I’m still here.

-Patrick
