Setting aside human rights and international law to have an agenda of war and killing and occupation to me is totally unacceptable.

The cross to me is complete nonviolence because Jesus said, "Love your enemy. Do not kill." I realized that I could never kill anyone or hurt anyone, but I was committed to trying to bring about social and political and economic change.

I go to places and I see all these people working on peace education and on a culture of nonviolence and non-killing. You look at all these different movements going on: the environment movement, the interfaith movement, the human rights movement, the youth movement, and the arts movement.

I believe in a non-killing future.

We reject the way the world is at the moment and we don't accept nuclear weapons

I am very hopeful that there is a solution to the Israeli/Palestinian injustice.

I believe we are on the edge of a quantum leap into a whole new way of organizing and living as a human family.
