The proof why Lord of the Flies is just anti-youth propaganda, and, perhaps, a glimpse at what a Quaker Free School might look like. Thanks to Young Leader for the original post.
Two gay Englishmen came to Gandhi in the 1930s and asked him what he thought of their relationship.
The Mahatma asked some questions and for a short time fell silent.
Then he said, “The greatest gift God gives us is another person to love.”

“Who are we to question God’s choice?”
Homo Sapiens appeared on earth in the last flick of an evolutionary eye, and in the very recent past has modified the world in ways that may give the species a prize for rapid extinction. It is, surely, within our power to demonstrate that the particular forms that higher intelligence took will not prove to be a lethal mutation.
Elimination of nuclear weapons from the earth is a fundamental step in this direction. The non-violent activists who are dedicating themselves to realizing this goal deserve our sincerest thanks and strongest support.

George Osborne will tomorrow vow to stick by his controversial plan to wipe out Britain’s £109bn structural deficit in one parliament, saying the alternative of delay would only hit the poor and consign the country to a decade of debt.
In his speech to the Conservative party conference in Birmingham, the chancellor will announce that every Whitehall department will have its head office staff cut by a third, promise to give the armed forces the tools to finish the job, and dismiss Britain’s public service structure as designed for the 1950s.
He will audaciously offer the deficit reduction plan as an example of his One Nation Conservatism, rather than an ideological assault on the state, and will hold out the prospect of lifting more people out of tax through raising thresholds.
