		<description>Interfaith rallies means having the broad united front (from different sides of the political spectrum) together for one tactical  fight. It doesn&#039;t mean that long term objectives of a certain section of a political spectrum are cut short. It just means that for the time being, all of us are united under one objective.

Interfaith can mean a lot of things, love. Faith isn&#039;t necessarily a religious thing, after all. For example: I have faith in my Marxist-Leninist-Maoist ideology. It&#039;s my personal conviction.

		<description>sorry, my understanding of filo politics is rudimentary at the best of times, but to put it simply i always viewed the problems there to be rooted in two things: poverty and the oligarchy. whilst i&#039;m no conservative libertarian, i view global capitalism as exploiting the condition there, but not necessarily the basis of it. so i do agree with robinson and you, but i do understand that good governance would be a step in the right direction, to stop the government being an intermediary, and to institute proper work place/industrial relations legislation in order to combat the exploitative tendencies of transnationals. 

what is disappointing is that the promise of protest, demonstration and revolution aren&#039;t realised. i do believe in the democratic right and principle of freedom of public assembly, but it would also be good if actual change came with it. 

also, wouldn&#039;t a federal-parliamentary system at least be able to control provincial seats where it may be easier to, you know, accept bribes for over-logging. (simplistic example, i know, but bare with me.) obviously there&#039;s pros and cons to the differing systems, and my views are social democrat in nature, but sometimes a change in system should benefit the situation, and not just be instated based on some subjective belief of an ideal good. 

but, again, as i said, my knowledge of filo politics is not as strong as i&#039;d like it to be.

this was a good post. i&#039;d have more to say but i don&#039;t want to bore you, especially if my comments are completely ill-informed.

p.s. if there is one thing that should be changed, though, it is the separation of church and state.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;or who drag me away from political arguments because I can get a little too hotheaded, pissy, and downright socially embarassing when I encounter people who disagree with me&lt;/i&gt;

Have you ever considered that they might be right? How can one get a message across if one is pissy and hot headed?
