PRECINCT MASTER_VOL. 1, NO.1_2006
PURPOSES, PREMISES, PRINCIPLES AND PROMISES
This Blog shall be dedicated to the most current of American Issues: Social, Political, Economic, Moral, and Ethical within our society with special emphasis given to the actions, current and pending, of the Congress and The Supreme Court Of The United
States.
Its’ primary purpose(s) shall be to inform in as factual a manner as is possible. No opinion will be offered without substantiation by fact(s), and no argument of persuasion will be sat forth without factual basis and reasoning.
GUIDING PRINCIPLES:
Every individual, regardless of race, creed, age_able or infirm, socio-economic status, intellectual ability, educational level, political affiliation, sex, sexual orientation, language, ethnicity, national origin and of every human condition/circumstance are all equal before the law, and as such all are entitled to the equal protections of and enjoyment of such privileges as shall emanate from those laws.
All humanity are entitled to be treated with respect and extended the same measure of dignity that we all expect to be accorded.
In War and in Peace, in tranquility or crisis, all people(s) should be treated with decency as is generally understood and universally accepted in any simple standard of right and wrong. In those instances when matters under consideration shall be those related to warfare; this blog shall accept, without exception, hesitation or any attempt to evade or dismiss those standards of human treatment set forth in the provisions of The Geneva Conventions. Further all attempts to circumvent, pervert, ignore, dismiss, and explain away applicability will be viewed with suspicion and probable rejection.
That while we shall always hold that all citizens of the Earth are entitled to the rights of free speech, expression in its multitude of forms and mediums, and freedom of the press, as legitimate and rightful means of conveying ones thoughts, beliefs, values and opinions; we shall equally hold that, while one has the legitimate right to attempt to persuade, convince others of the correctness, desirability of same, by force of logic and argument, no one has the right, to even attempt to, by force of arms or enactment of statute(s) to impose any substance or content of any ones core being that emanates from the words: “I Believe” upon another.
I will respect your right to believe anything and say anything within the boundaries of law and decency, but inherent in the very words “I Believe” exists the right to say “I Do Not Believe”, and as I believe I do not have the right to impose my belief system upon another, so I believe, and shall act upon the notion that no one else has the right to impose their belief system upon another.
In similar fashion, as I will defend strenuously our every right provided by our laws and as understood to exist as a matter of custom and tradition, I shall not ignore that inherent in every right we hold, cherish and enjoy is an accompanying responsibility and the right and responsibilities are inextricably interwoven as common threads in the cloth of our cultural fabric. Remove one set of threads and you have a useless rag.
We hold the view that in this nation, we are all the rightful heirs of the vision, principles, rights, duties, and responsibilities as are articulated in The Declaration Of Independence, and that this author holds that document to be the primary cornerstone of our history, heritage and law.
We further hold that every inhabitant of The United States is entitled to the full protection and enjoyment of all rights provided in and inherent of The Constitution Of The United States Of America as may from time-to-time be amended and/or interpreted/applied, and are obligated to obey that document, so long as that document is never utilized or corrupted in such fashion as to impose upon any inhabitant(s) of these United States moral value, standards or practices given rise a singular source deriving or rising from the words: “I believe”.
Should such a condition become extant, it is the position of this author that the historical trail and sentiment and philosophical permissions granted by The Declaration of Independence must prevail in the sanctions of resistance and rebellion, noncompliance and rejection of and to such corruptions of the sanctity of The Constitution. Such an event would require as a duty of citizenship, active resistance, rebellion and refusal to honor or obey such wrongful provisos.
Like the Rose that shall never bloom in the snows of winter, this author adheres, as a matter of belief, founded in historical study and life experience, to the reasoned principle that no government or people can effectively or rightfully legislate morality. One may legislate one can and cannot do, but no one can legislate acceptance of an act or statute founded in a faith based belief.
Guided by adherence to the “Principle of an Absolute Separation of Church and State”, that all matters of religion/faith are private matters, I will hold that when ever any religious institution crosses that line and enters the secular arena, abandoning its respect for the separation as demonstrated by the legitimate teaching of its theology and ministry to its flock, where the clergy exercises “A Political Pulpit”, that, that particular church or institution surrenders, at that moment, the several special privileges/provisions and exemptions of law afforded said institutions, including but limited to freedom from taxation.
This blog shall always be dedicated to the finest purist definitions of Life, Liberty, Equality, Justice, Freedom, The Pursuit of Happiness, always mindful of the fact that in this life there are no absolutes, that our Free society is dependent upon an informed involved citizenry, always vigilant and prepared to repel the incursion of government or individuals upon the rights of even a minority of one.
