Keeping The New Faith

I am not a man of God; I was once, but have since decided that God might as well not exist. This is slightly more complicated than statements atheists usually make, but my reasoning goes like this: if God exists, He cannot be expected to perform miracles when we need them; nor can we expect Him to show Himself when we need our faith in Him bolstered; nor can we criticize His apparent lack of concern over the many evils and tragedies that beset our lives(for He is said to work in mysterious ways); nor can we contact Him via email.
While those who have faith say that He is always in their lives and is an integral part of it, the fact remains that they carry on their lives as if God is nowhere to be found. Therefore, all I have done is to cut out the middleman, so to speak.
My faith is not in God, not in the various substitutes people find for God, but in people themselves; I have faith not in God, but in Man. I truly and wholeheartedly believe not only that the future we will build in TWOP and True Democracy is possible, likely even, but that it is morally right. It is right not in the terms that the politically-correct use - and may the God I don't believe in heap dire retribution upon them all, evils minions of Satan, whom I also do not believe in, that they are - but right in the sense that it is the best we could do for ourselves and all others. It does not involve some wishful-thinking-type change in the fundamental nature of Man; it does not rest on velvet-gloved iron-fisted brutality masked by clever words or hidden behind a nice suit and tie. It simply rests on believing that changing the dynamics of our society will change society itself.
TWOP believes not in the fundamental goodness of Man, nor in his fundamental evil, but in his fundamental humanity. We are, all of us, capable of good, evil, indifference, and every other human emotion and characteristic. We are, all of us, worthy and deserving of respect, and should respect each other, even, especially, if we do not agree on a point of view. We are, none of us, bound to repeat the mistakes of the past: the past has no more power over us than we allow it.
All of this means that the world we foresee, the Great Britain that we shall build, is waiting, not for an act of faith, but for an act of will. Will you choose to help create True Democracy? If you look at our website - www.twopforum.webs.com - you will see some ideas on how to begin. You don't even have to spend more money to start getting involved! There is nothing stopping you, nothing holding you back - it's just that act of will.
For my part, I will continue to do what I can, knowing that of all the people of Britain, I am the one acting truly out of faith; faith in Man. One day that faith will be repaid; one day TWOP will be victorious; one day Great Britain will emerge, a triumphant bastion of True Democracy.

Students Right To Riot?

Alone of all British political organizations, TWOP refuses to condemn the recent student riots over the Con-Dem vote to increase university fees.

It is not that we regard violence as a legitimate political expression: we do not. It is that we do not regard a violent response as a successful one.

It is the same as the argument against mounting a revolution. The State will always have more men, more money and more resources to call upon than any organization intending to overthrow it. It is only when the State has already ceased to be effective that it can be overthrown - because in a sense it already has been. This is what happened in Russia in 1917; it is not going to happen here.

However, neither do we support those who feel that the students should have mounted a peaceful protest. What is the use of peaceful protest in a representative society? It is time to realize that whoever's views they pretend to represent, it isn't those of the electorate, of the taxpayers whose money they spend whenever they make their decisions.

I urge any student reading this to check our website, www.twopforum.webs.com, for more information about True Democracy. This is the political system we want, are working for, and will one day create. In our system, in the Great Britain to come, it is not so much that students will have a right to riot; it is that they will have no need to.

Greetings from the TWOP Chairman

Hello, everybody, it's David George here; I'm the Chairman of TWOP, The Will of the People Political Online Forum. We want an end to representative government - because whoever these people are representing, it isn't us taxpayers - and to build a True Democracy, in which the taxpayers decide government policy online and an executive body carries out the people's will.

Our website is available at www.twopforum.webs.com and contains a basic description of our aims and how you can help make them reality.

We also have a TWOP Facebook page, and I also have a personal Facebook page. Find me by searching for my email address facebooktwop@live.co.uk.

I am going to post very little about myself on this blog, because it is the idea of True Democracy that is important, not me. I am but its servant.
