How to Destroy God's Kingdom and Democracy at the Same Time Case Study Water Supply of Portland, Oregon

"For me, working with the Bull Run issue (protecting part of the Mt. Hood National Forest as water supply for Portland, Oregon & metropolitan area) is like being part of a marvellous, divinely-designed, experiment. "From this ongoing experiment, we can learn how best to take care of a forested water source; & how best to involve the public in the planning for this care. "...there is great power in public attitudes. This power was great enough that the Forest Service considered, in 1952, that what was called 'the thinking' of people would have to be changed in order for logging to be undertaken. This paper documents in detail the devious strategies that have been used, & are still being used, to avert honestly-arrived-at, public attitudes. "If we don't do something to counter this power of controlled public information, & public involvement in planning, we will wind up simply as drones, subject to the hypnotic control of Public Relations people, serving Big Business. "My belief that there is a better way, is based on reason & faith."--Joseph L.
