Statement of Conscientious Objection to War in Any Form
I hereby affirm, and publish for all the world to witness, my moral opposition to the use of violence to settle disputes. Consequently, I refuse to participate in, or cooperate with, any group, organization, or agency of government that would require me to engage in any act of violence against a fellow human being. Furthermore, I hereby pledge and affirm, from this day forward, to organize my life and livelihood in such a way as to promote peacemaking as a practical ideal.
"Service, Conviction, Love"
Ghaffar Khan and Mahatma Gandhi

About Me
Page Dedication
This weblog is dedicated to the memory of Professor Jerome Laulicht who passed away March 3, 2006. Dr. Laulicht, a pioneer in the field of peace studies at the University of Pittsburgh, was a wonderful teacher who believed in my potential as a peace-wager long before I ever began to believe it myself.
